Salary Cap Cheating in 93

[HairyO]

Cheat flags:
1993
1995
2001
2002
2003
2005
2012

1993 is the interesting one because Carlton were even worse than Essendon - who were bloody disgraceful.

Sheedy should have been banned from the game.

Essendon should just have been booted out of the comp for repeated cheating and flagrant disregard for the integrity of the game

 

[HairyO]

Is it sheedys problem?

You reckon the coach doesnt know that his players are being paid under the table? Really?

Sheedy ran every part of the footy department with an iron fist.

Yes of course the AFL aren't going to revise their official stance on this. But I think Adelaide fans could justifiably feel hard done by

Some one is still cranky his blues got thumped in 1993!
Time to move on dude

For so many years I thought Carlton were being ridiculed due to salary breaches BUT there are a whole lot of other clubs that should be copping it worse Melbourne, Essendon. Both in strong years or premiership years. Even Sydney. Carlton didn't do it in a premiership year we were just thelast team to do it so we copped huge sanctions as the AFL were fed up with it.

Carlton were over the cap too. Kinda glad we’re not the team that won a flag while well over the salary cap tbh

Should be removed from the record books like Melbourne Storm. Blues too with those dodgy payments to Diesel (and god know what else) in 95.

You can’t keep a flag when you’re over the cap (but obviously in the Afl you can ). The Afl don’t have the balls to strip them of their flags like the Nrl did with the Storm.

Essendon/Carlton have a long long history of cheating to win. They are pretty much sister clubs

Just keep quiet and be grateful we let you play in our comp.

Bloody height of rudeness.

The league inquiries have centred around an agreement to license the domain names James Hird.com and Matthew Lloyd.com with the Bombers' internet provider i7. The Bombers vigorously argued with the AFL in 2001 that the licence fee for Lloyd should not fall under the additional services agreement clause because the payment did not cover marketing or promotion.

The Bombers said the payment would prevent Lloyd from setting up a rival website in competition with the Bombers. A further agreement with Lloyd gives the champion full-forward royalties for merchandise sold from the club's retail outlet.

The Lloyd deals were signed before the start of the 2002 season with his former manager Ricky Nixon, while Hird's annual agreement - which also kicked off last season - was overseen by the latter's manager Ben Crowe.

Crowe said last night: "James Hird is not under investigation by the AFL and the AFL was aware of the agreement between James and i7 . . . and had no problem with that."

The AFL first contacted Nixon and Jackson late last week.

Essendon chairman Graeme McMahon said from the Gold Coast last night that the club would also look at issuing legal writs against any party airing unsubstantiated allegations against the club and alleged salary-cap breaches.

Amazing to think that Sydney were $1.15m over the cap back in 1987

Now that's a fair effort. Was that like double the cap back then?

Ah Ricky Nixon, the peak of honesty and fair dealing.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Carlton fans just won’t let it go eh

Jesus.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

expansion clubs. what can you do.

Can you imagine going to join the SANFL and then gobbing off about how the Power should be kicked out of the league?

Unbelievable

Don't invent history based on the vibe. Consider watching footy for a while first at least

They really are a stain on the AFL, their supporters seem to accept this win at all costs mentality.

Not when you look at who they had playing then.
Williams, Healy, Capper et all they had some good players

I hope Essendon win the flag so I can see supporters like you melt.
