Star Essendon recruit Dylan Shiel has landed a side job working for a wealthy Bombers powerbroker.

In an arrangement ticked off by the AFL, Shiel has joined property tycoon and former Essendonians coterie club president Mark Casey at his company, Casey Capital.

Casey tonight confirmed he had employed Shiel on a part-time basis to “learn the property game for life after football”.

Shiel, 26, shifted from Greater Western Sydney to the Dons in exchange for two first-round draft picks during last October’s trade period.

Carlton and St Kilda had hotly pursued Shiel, with the Blues flying him to Noosa on a private jet as part of an unsuccessful bid to win his signature.

“Dylan is an intelligent person and is keen to create a future outside of football,” Casey told the Herald Sun.

“He has aspirations to be a property developer, so we are delighted to have him as part of the Casey Capital team.

“Dylan will be working with me closely on two new large-scale residential projects, one west of Melbourne and the other a new $2 billion town on the Byron Bay coast.”

The AFL stipulates that all financial arrangements with club supporters and third-party benefactors must be unrelated to player contracts or a players’ decision to move clubs.

Asked whether Shiel was aware of the prospect of working for him before he agreed to join the Bombers, Casey said: “I had no discussions with Dylan prior to him joining the club.”

He said Shiel would earn up to $20,000 a year in wages, but receive “invaluable experience and first-hand opportunities to invest in future projects as all staff do”.

Casey, the brother of former Richmond president Clinton Casey, was behind the lucrative Armstrong Creek property venture that saw Essendon legend Mark “Bomber” Thompson and Bombers list boss Adrian Dodoro split a $14 million jackpot from an investment of $394,000 each.

Dodoro oversaw the negotiations that sent Shiel to the Dons in a swap for pick No. 9 in last year’s draft and Essendon’s first-round selection this season.

Casey, whose company has more than 10,000 lots under its portfolio of projects, has previously mentored Essendon players Andrew Welsh and Dean Solomon in the property development game.

Welsh, 36, was named in last year’s top 25 Young Rich List with an estimated fortune of $121 million.

“Our company has a diverse range of projects from new towns, childcare, townhouses and retirement villages, and Dylan will be part of the team that will deliver these projects,” Casey said.

In 2012, Greater Western Sydney was forced to include the wages of its recruiter, Phil Scully, in the club’s salary cap after the Herald Sun revealed his employment had been directly related to the signing of his son, Tom Scully.

Happy he's being looked after. Bombers board but.

Shame he didn't go to Carlton, he would have been the perfect candidate to fill the Environmental Ambassador role vacated by Chris Judd.

 

[Malifice]

Obviously this will be included in the Salary cap like Judd's deal had to be.

It’s been vacant for 5 years.

Shiel will actually earn his money unlike Chris judd.

 

[MightyHawks]

Shiel will actually earn his money unlike Chris judd.

Will he record his hours worked on a spreadsheet?

 

[chunkylover53]

Shiel will actually earn his money unlike Chris judd.

lol no he won't. He's bloody part-time in a role to 'learn the property game', he will not have to lift a finger.

There seems to be heaps of 3rd party deals going around still - why did Visy and Judd cop so much s**t for it but something like this doesn't?

 

[BF Tiger]

Bummer of a commute between Tullamarine and Southbank.

 

[kozi]

Shiel will actually earn his money unlike Chris judd.

Since when is “learning the property game” an income earning job?

Righto...

Probably because tricky Dicky isn’t involved.
You know, all those brown paper bags stuffed with cash that Pratt ripped off from the public..

Is Tom Scullys Dad included in the Hawks cap ....

Fair enough.

Property developers are honest, so Shiel deal very different.

Why weren't the Eagles given the opportunity to bid on the same terms ... guess the 2018 flag makes that a moot point.

 

[Frank Gallagher]

It’s been vacant for 5 years.

No wonder global warming has taken hold and our planet is going to s**t.

If only they'd filled the role!

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Since when is “learning the property game” an income earning job?

Since the AFL is keen for the Bombers to become relevant again, and this was all part of the agreed contract when Shiel signed-on...

 

[Elvis]

How is Andrew Welsh's form? At best, he was a good ordinary player. Managed to eke out a decent career. Dicked Paris Hilton. Now worth $121 million.

 

[Back One Out]

The Essendon footy club were unrepentant about their systemic doping regime and the AFL did their level best to sweep things under the rug and minimise the damage.

So why would anyone be surprised about them colluding over salary cap cheating?

Culture.

Free agency was only going to work fairly for all clubs if the AFL was transparent about player salaries and vigorously policed the salary cap. But it’s quite clear from all the side deals which players are able to make that the salary cap rules are toothless and the current system is a farce.

But what do you expect from an organisation that ticked off the Buddy Franklin deal, effectively stealing him away from Hawthorn and paying him millions on the side to be the AFL ambassador & public face of footy in Sydney.

The AFL is a shitty corrupt competition where the people in charge just make up the rules as they go along.

You would know about brown paper bags...just as common at windy hill as any other club.

 

[citizen-erased]

They know. No essendon, no afl

Such things didnt seem to bother them when the hawks and dees tried to merge.

 

[Buzzasto DaSilva]

Hope this ends better than Bomber Thompson's "real estate deals" with "Essendon powerbrokers".

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Shouldn't this be on the Essendon board.

 

[Frank Gallagher]

Salary cap or not there is simply no way of legally stopping these deals, just deal with it.
