Heath Shaw farked

[Gimps]

Been done for backing Maxwell for 1st goal against Adelaide..

This is gold.

If the AFL has any cojones, they'll give him some help (compulsory gambling education classes) and the rest of the season off, including finals. Maybe a $10,000-$20,000 fine, too.

This looks more than just a frivolous little bet without inside knowledge, it's akin to insider trading with the sole intent of making money. Maxwell would've been going off at big odds as he always plays in defence, except Shaw obviously knew he would start forward for the particular game.

What a dunce.

14 games and 20 large.

[Gimps]

Heath Shaw - 14 games and 20k - can't play at any level for 8 games

Nick Maxwell - 10k, no suspension. Family members backed him.

[Rossoneri]

14 games and 20 large.

But 6 suspended so he is back for the finals. What a joke

Should have been given the full season and plus some.

i think there will be a bit more of fall out from this one. maxwell was moved to the forward line for this game....think he kicked the first point though(not the goal).

shaw must have been kicking himself when that miss happened.

Further proof that no matter how good a footballer he might be, he has a serious shortage of grey matter

[gringo]

The AFL is hardly innocent in all of this. They whore themselves to the various betting agencies in Australia in a manner that would make loosest lady on Gray St blush. You play with fire and you get burnt.

Having said that, the culture at Collingwood is pathetic. It's tolerated and disguised when the team is winning but as soon as they start struggling they are exposed like the aggots of a well-hung bulldog.

How do you get done for a cash bet?

Get a mate to drive to the other side of town, ffs.

That is a joke. Hardly a deterrent.

Apparently the bet was placed by a mate...the AFL investigators were made aware of a sudden drop in the odds on Maxwell kicking the 1st goal against Adelaide in Rd 9.

They followed the money trail backwards and today is the result of their investigations.

Yeah, ****** idiot. Put 10 clams on it, why bother when you're earning 300k+

They said Maxwell gave the info to family members. And that he didn't have knowledge of the bets placed. Would be dirty on his family if that's true.

From what I can tell Heath Shaw is a few beers short of a six pack; six beers to be precise. He's just the plastic binding that holds them together. In fact, he's one of the six holes within the binding.

these blokes could get away with it if they didnt bet big amounts of cash each time.

(not suggesting this is right, but heck its gambling)

Not wrong there.

So weak that he's allowed to play finals. If Collingwood had a scintilla of morals, they'd make sure he's not picked for the rest of the year.

Didn't McGuire say he and Didak were on their last chance after being done for drink driving a few years ago? Will be interested to see whether there's any follow-up there...

Ha, that was their last chance for drink driving! They are free to rape and pillage as they see fit as long as they aren't pissed and driving at the same time. Surellllllllllllllllllly this is what Collingwood meant when they said "on their last chance?"

[dom_105]

I can just imagine some pen pusher in a dark office at AFL House with a stack of VCR tapes 30 high and a folder of mugshots of known associates of Heath Shaw. Puts in the second tape and sees Shaw himself wandering into the local TAB and sliding $20 across the counter.

He must have thought all his Christmas's had come at once.
