cats caught cheating

#Melbourne Storm lost premierships,
#Carlton lost dtaft picks,
#Geelong get 40k fine.

Hocking was at the reins when those over payments were made and now he is the same bloke giving out the punishment.
It's Bullshhiit...

12 premiership points deducted from the 2020 season should've been the punishmenh not a spare change fine...

Michael Warner not the man.
The Chief writer for all things AFL is the only one for the job.

They say 8 years.
Would not be surprised if it went actually longer.
Guess they don’t want to taint that last premiership

I know what Carlton and the Storm were penalised for but what is it that Geelong has actually done?

I think that is the question we'd all like answered. Not too much to ask, is it?

Obfuscation and ambiguity are obvious tactics to avoid scrutiny.

It almost always means there is more to the story.

This unfortunately is what you get when journalists require "accreditation" and the main media vehicle is owned by the body that needs to be held to account.

If there's nothing to hide, tell us what they've been penalised for.

So it's a GST stuff-up on management fees, they weren't over the TPP caps.

Everyone can call off the dogs, $5k a year for an accountant's error seems about right.
Isn't that the point though TBR? They managed to stay under the TPP because they didnt pay the GST?
All I know is that this stinks just like the Bombers self reporting.

Haven't we been caught with administrative errors with the TPP before and only been fined?
 
Not sure about the TPP but we were fined at one stage for failing to provide ASADA with correct information regarding the location of a player.

Which was then taken by other club's fans to mean we were certainly hiding Dustin so he couldn't be drug tested. Classic case of adding 1 and 1 and getting 52,435.

Sound familiar?

Yeah. It's our turn to throw some mud.

Yes 10% of what and how much is what may make it a big issue or not
Gill the Dill probably slapped them on the wrist and gave them a reduced penalty for self-reporting and then screamed out: GIMMEEE MY MONEY!!!!

We were one of four clubs pinged at the time. Seems the clubs get fined when the players are too slack to update their ASADA apps often enough.

I thought half the point of Fan forums was so that we could bag *smile* out of the oppo clubs n AFL HQ to amuse ourselves, highly important during the off season when there's no real footy going on. Can't rev up n vent during a game so we rev up n vent online.

Seems to be that they made a GST error on management fees paid by the club on behalf of players, presumably to agents/managers.

It's small beer. I know it's fun to get all hysterical about anything Geelong related, but geez guys.

High level of outrage in this thread considering no-one has any idea at all what they actually did.

Its a richmond fan forum mate. We all love richmond and hate other teams. If you feel the need to carry on everytime we get stuck in to other teams, what are you actually doing here?

Reckon it's good for a mod to have an objective opinion. Doesn't prevent us from expressing our own.
