This isn’t true at all. These conspiracy theories are terrible.
Its all true.
JLT was the insurer. The players all settled and received tax free payments which were outside the cap. And after it was settled JLT was announced as a major sponsor of the AFL.
Clearly what Essendon did was negligent. The insurer would have won any court case if they contested their liability. But they never did.
Why?
The "free" advertising they got as a major sponsor.
