Crows to potentially lose all draft picks?

Re: Crows to potentially lose all draft picks?

At a guess I think they will be banned from the first 2 rounds of the draft for 2 years.

I reckon a hefty fine will also be headed their way. Not quite the 900k that Carlton were slugged with but something around the 300-500k mark wouldn't surprise.

Herald/sun just put out an article saying deals outside AFL rules are rife.

I want them to pay a hefty penalty. All involved have blatantly disregarded their responsibility and should be held accountable.

Think Sedat's suggested fine is sufficient (or within the realms of what's reasonable). As for the draft, I think thye should still be able to procure younger talent, but should not be able to do so at the pointy end. First two this year, and first selection next year should punish them enough.

Hypothetical - but they could have made the GF off this guys boot this year. Maybe won the flag through cheating.

Reckon the book should be thrown at them.

They still need to participate in the draft. You must make 3 changes to your list at the very least although this can be rookie promotions.

I think they are in trouble.

At a guess I think they will be banned from the first 2 rounds of the draft for 2 years.

I mentioned in another thread there's a few ways around it, promote all rookies and replenish through the rookie list, banned from the National Draft and select players in the PSD once all teams have had their picks or enter the National Draft once all teams have passed or filled their lists.

What's the bet Sherman may get a gig at the Crows just that he maybe the best option with what's available to them.

The Tippett saga may work for Justin to get back on a AFL list.

I don't think the two are linked. No idea where Sherman will land but there might be a couple of clubs willing to have a chat to him.

Adelaide would also have access to free agency to add to their list if they are excluded from the draft in part or in full. De-listed players all become unrestricted free agents.

No shit. Only Inspector Clouseau Ken Wood couldn't find them.

I was speaking with an official (not one of ours) who said it was rumoured that Nick Riewoldt got 100K appearance fee for a sportsman's night that never happened.

They would have got away with it as well, except for that pesky Jessie White- neither club wants him.

Inspector Clouseau Ken Wood - that is extremely amusing.

This was always going to happen when the League allowed Third party arrangements.

The way they bumbled and stumbled onto this had the hallmarks of Maxwell Smart.

Didn't we take care of Simon Bisley's kid's school fees? I suppose this outside the books stuff is as old as time.

Yes but we're their rules against it back then?
Only have to go back to Judds last contract and it was fine.
