Geelong made $85 million in revenue last financial year. $40k of this fine was suspended, so they therefore only pay $37.5k
That’s the equivalent of someone earning $75,000/year getting fined $33.
Breaking - Geelong has been fined $77,500 ($40k suspended) for administrative errors including non-disclosure of third party payments after an AFL audit spanning six years

That’s it, I’m done with this club. 10 years of rebuilding and our peak was a prelim and we’re getting thumped by north. This is my last day as a Carlton fan, goodbye ✌️

Watching Ben McKay play for Essendon is the only reason I will never take Brady Rawlings slander.
Anyone who can convince Essendon that a player with the defending ability of a bag of chips was generational talent deserves applause.
Everyone clowns on the St Kilda president for complaining about financial inequality between clubs, yet when a club actually does something about it, it’s “you should fold”
Make it make sense.
The media/nuffies: “north should stop being tin rattlers, make some money and pull themselves up by their bootstraps”
North: ok
The media/nuffies: wait no
Average “report card” from sports journalists:
Sports journalists: “North should aim to sign, Darling, Parker and Daniel”
North: “ok”
Sports journalists: “not good enough. C-, 3.5/10. Mediocre trade period”.
I can see it play out already:
The media: “north should go overs for Daniel and Parker”
North: *will probably go overs for Daniel and Parker*
The media: “north shouldn’t have done that”
