[Coach_Beard]

chaos deserves the 3 the 2 and the 1 votes on this.

 

[Calmdowngoldy]

I think for memory Abers got caught a few years back I think they got a hefty fine and put on a bond

 

[ChaosMail]

200k is a lot Chaos I hope you and your mum are on the money . Time will tell

I have been right about everything and you doubted it all yesterday and called me nuts… so If they don’t disclose the amount in the AFL vic post then take 200k to the bank mate

 

[Calmdowngoldy]

I didn’t call you nuts you did .

 

[Calmdowngoldy]

Chaos under 16s training starts soon

0 to do with he's son, wholl play cannons, won't stick to mick, keilor will be the ones that'll cop it

Wangaratta from memory were 25k over and they got a big fine, couldn't win their first 3 games and got their premiership stripped. The keilor sanctions will be way worse

This is why the salary cap system is a mockery. The majority of clubs would do it and the ones that don’t probably don’t raise the funds but would do it if they could. The system adds time and effort to the volunteers and is hard to audit. Time to invest more effort into the points system and actually make it do what it was supposed to do which is be mechanism to even the comps. Last years premiership were Heidelberg Balwyn keilor etc which was the same as when the salary cap and points come in. It is a joke. If clubs want to pay players more then so be it as long as they can fund it.

 

[Del228913]

His gone quiet now the dweeb

Who's gone quiet, you might have to get in the car and start following Taylor's Lakes

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Not defending Keilor here as they deserve whatever may be coming their way, but how many of the clubs in 1st division (2nd to while we're at it) do people think actually stick to the cap?

Genuine query. My guess would be not very many.

Well this shows them that if they win the flag they’ll be investigated and if caught will face big issues… so you never know, it might just have an impact.

You need both

How anybody can say a big club being caught shows that it doesn’t work is beyond me

It shows it does work

Of course they can’t audit every club in the state

But clubs buy players to win flags

If it just means the flag could get stripped, they will think twice

The president and treasurer of every club will take notice, your name would be mud.

This is a good thing for footy, end of story.

This is the reason why it's done, many clubs cant raise this money and really why should they? Its community sport, metro clubs should be able to field their side with 16 locals and top up with a few recruits.

It allows more clubs to compete for flags by playing by the rules and stops ridiculous spending on players that'll turn many clubs like east keilor bankrupt by trying to keep up with Joneses.

It'll be a warning for all other clubs. Obviously the Wangaratta story didn't travel to the city

Not sure the system does work, BM, but yes it's a good thing for local footy.

If you believe the posts in this forum, it was 2024 Keilor players who provided the evidence not an investigation or audit conducted or initiated by AFLV or EDFL.

The system currently relies on disgruntled people within a club coming forward not a systematic process from above.

Finally a sensible post

I believe all premiers are audited

An audit starts with the club submitting their numbers and the authorities independently checking those numbers with all players

So an audit may have kicked this off

Tom Mcguane plays for Western Jets and yes it will have an impact on the family.

 

[3 peat]

Might want to change your name to 0 peat mate

Win again this year mate with all this false info all laughingstock, just shows how much keilor live in everyone’s head

 

[ChaosMail]

Win again this year mate with all this false info all laughingstock, just shows how much keilor live in everyone’s head

This is going to age really well soon! Don’t go missing!!

 

[thefunnelweb]

Bound to be huge news on main stream media due to the well known McGuane name and reputation!
It’ll be curtains for his future involvement ANYWHERE I suspect?

Harsh to say that’s curtains on future involvements, can’t assume he was doing the contracts can we? He was just coaching the list provided by the club? Or have I missed something?

 

[The 5th Quarter]

The edfls love child would also make a packet from all the junior & senior finals held there every year, so IF the rumours are found to be fact, take that away for a few years too.

 

[sorloser]

Clerical error
Ex player not happy
Cmon keilor which story u running with
Digging a bigger hole for yourself

 

[Chipparelli]

The only way the edfl can fix this is by reducing the number of teams a club can have in the junior age groups. Some clubs struggle for juniors while the big clubs have 4 or 5 teams in each age group. This hurts the teams that have less junior teams when it comes to senior footy as the players that come from the big clubs from the bottom 3 teams are worth not one pointers. I don't think it is a money issue. It is more a points issue. As the bigger clubs have a bigger pool of 1 point players than the clubs that struggle to get junior teams. Clubs should be zoned for juniors. But if they are struggling for numbers in their zone they are allowed players from outside the zone. That's my take on trying to fix the system we currently have.

 

[danger_wood]

We can only hope that the league comes down hard on Keilor, set a precedent.

And self reported.
