I may be cynical, but amazing how the Jaidyn Stephenson story appeared just in time to take a bit of heat off Gilligan and his woeful presser.

If i was a gambling man I'd say you're right.

 

[dus]

Feel for him.

Such as shame.

Something. Something.

Get back whenever.

 

[Kanga Glory]

Gary ‘Brownless’ bringing up cunners tackle that injured the Leech De boer he should have been reported. He is such a a...wipe. It’s Wednesday !!!

 

[Snake_Baker]

It doesn't look like we'll have to factor Stephenson in our match strategy:

 

[King Corey]

Sorry, why are Collingwood involved in determining a penalty?

In other news Ben Cunnington will miss 4-6 weeks for using the phrase "I bet" in a post-match interview after his 200th.

"Collingwood and the AFL have been locked in discussions over the penalty for young star Jaidyn Stephenson's betting infringement, with the AFL suggesting a hefty penalty that would rule Stephenson out for most of the season.

Sources have confirmed, too, that Stephenson's wagering consisted of at least two small bets on Collingwood-related outcomes - not one solitary bet.

The young star betted on individual teammates performing well, such as gaining a high possession tally, and he did not bet against Collingwood or a teammate."

Yeah, that's stepping over the line.

this suggests the betting was premeditated, the young fella is a very silly chappy.

He'll be copping a fair whack I reckon.

[Snake_Baker]

He won't do that again.

One less speedster for us to worry about.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Haha, so convenient to be back for finals

Seems a bit harsh of a penalty. Only play money involved and not betting to lose..

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Typical AFL. Everything can be negotiated. "Integrity" officer would have had Gil and the club bartering to come up with a solution that sent the league's message while also making the impact on the club relatively acceptable. Same as they tried to do with the PED penalties.

Luckily the kid now has tens of thousandsa of people telling him he didn't do anything wrong and keep his chin up, so I'm sure the lesson will be learned.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

stupid decision from the kid.

But, * the AFL and their stance on betting sponsorship.

 

[Thndr]

Placing bets on yourself .... is that like having tabs on yourself ?????

It's a perception/thin end of the wedge issue. They can't afford to have the slightest hint of players betting as it taints the game.

As it is, worst bet ever. Lay down $36, lose $20,000.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Bit on the nose that he’ll be back for finals.

 

[giantroo]

 

[Hojuman]

Stephenson - that'll learn 'im.

 

[Devington]

Stephenson is a moron and the AFL, like always, thinks we are too.
Self reported?
Back for finals because of a (((suspended))) sentence?

I'm fine with him being back for finals, 10 weeks is a decent whack even if there are arguments it should be much longer. But ffs, stop treating us like utter fools and play a straight bat for once.

 

[Firestarter]

I thought you misspelled "Bet". I'm an idiot
