Its hard to say what sort of penalty should be imposed.
Surely the AFL cant hold the club responsible, but I guess they can "expect" the club to respond appropriately.
So what happens to what is essentially a club employee?What is in his employment contract?
Suspension ( free holiday ) is hardly a punishment for someone who is not a player.
Can an employee be fined by their employer? Surely not.
Reasigning of duties, official warning, what?

Hey, Greg Denham.
At least you got two of the colours right
How incredibly foolish to all but name a team, and get it completely wrong.
Denham is fookin useless. Add him to the long list of footy media 'personalities' who are constantly getting it wrong and apparently know sweet F all about the subject they're paid to analyse, football.
A couple of Fridays ago on KB's show before Carlton v Hawthorn he said Yarran was a bonefide 'superstar', refused to back away when called on it
then follwed up by saying that Carlton's backline was stronger than Hawthorn's. Seriously
He's a joke.

LOL you dont get out much do you? You spruked off you were in the know at Collingwood so surely youd know. Or are you in denial also.
If you want to find out who is, and isn't with the betting issue, go to Sheahan's article, as usual he sniffs into everything, like a rat!! A typical nosey journalist.

Nooooooooooooo. Right thread.
I was responding to a post by a St.Kilda supporter. I never brought up Beams.
How about you direct your whining at the right person?

There isn't any because it just further confirms that apart from Heath Shaw's foolish $10 bet, any other controversy involving Collingwood in the past three years has been either overblown, or in said case, completely unfounded and made-up. Mainly by St.Kilda supporters who are still either bothered by their own players involvement with her, Luke Ball joining Collingwood for nothing and/or last years Grand Final(s).
In denial about what? Do you have any source since it is "more than confirmed?" I think you're the one in denial and refuse to accept that there isn't any such confirmation of course.
Yes, some St.Kilda supporters did drag it off-topic, but there is not much to add to this topic, but hopefully they've stopped now. It seems Dean Wallis of Essendon apparently placed a bet on the outcome of a quarter quad match. Whether he did that on behalf of someone else, and the match he betted on, and whether it was a winning bet or not, has not yet been confirmed. It probably won't be for a couple of days.

Nobody cares about Beams, McCarthy or Duthie. Shut up about them people.

Essendon must have all their premiership points stripped.
Meaning whoever finishes 9th gets their finals spot.

Some of you have no idea.
Not defending Wally but the only punishment that will happen is that Wally gets the arse. Anything else would be overkill.

Only Saints still do.
Everything in footy is overblown by the media.
BUT, Beams and McCarthy were scarcely named as I recall it, despite being at the scene during a pretty sordid sort of an event. ( Nothing illegal though ). SImilarly Beam's invovement with Kim Duthie was somehow hushed up.
The Beams, McCarthy thing might have been overblown by Big Footy
First post in here that derailed everything. But of course, it's the PIES posters that seem to be copping it.
@bubblegoose, again pal, direct your cheese and whine elsewhere.
Only a moron would think it makes any difference.
The rule is NOT that you are allowed to make bets for other people.
The rule is NOT that you cannot profit from betting.
SORRY if i dared to disagree with a comment made by the Great Kiss Stephanie regarding a totally irrelevant topic.
I was not the first to mention those names.
hehe yeah I'm sure the AFL would go for that. Why have an Essendon v Carlton final when you can have a North v Carlton final?
In any case, I'm sure Brad Scott would politely turn the opportunity down, as they don't want to "fall into the finals" anyway, do they?
If it was a footy quad from that game that paid, in such bizarre circumstances, it needs to be looked at as a realistic option.
Time to dish out some real; penalties now, enough warnings.

Ridiculous idea. ( From a supporter of that club again ).
a) Essendon FC did not stand to gain from the action.
b) The action was taken by an Employee
There could be an expectation that the AFL expect Essendon to take action against their errant employee, but I cant see that it could go much further than that, and I expect the club will take a suitable action.
What action they will/can take remains to be seen.

How do we know? Essendon have the hand out currently to build Tullamarine Towers.
I'm sure all club staff are being asked to contribute, especially a long time servant like Wallis.
Maybe this was his way - in these straitened financial times and all - of coming up with his share.

Worst case scenario, Wallis gets the sack. Honestly, it's the person doing the gambling that gets punished, not the Club.
