Roast umpire embroiled in brownlow betting scandal

[beema limapep]

Which umpire is it the dog

 

[DickieKnee]

Neil Mitchell must be the only person in Australia that doesn’t know there are 3 million different bet types on the Brownlow medal count.

This is the thing. You can bet on almost anything in football these days. Leaves it wide open to corruption.

Love Four corners to do a story on corruption in the AFL

Last time a journo tried it (Warner) they were sent to interview the stairs that tripped up Dan Andrews

[tigers12]

I bet the umpire won’t be named like what they do with drug policy with the players

We've been calling them cheats for years. What a surprise one of them gets arrested for cheating.

 

[YeOldTiger]

how is it that mick warner released that book and then disappeared from the afl landscape ?

lost his jobs at the hun, 3aw and even deleted his twitter

Yeh whistleblowers don't have the greatest track record in this country. It usually ends up in you losing your job, your reputation and a massive legal bill. All for uncovering corruption or worse. Seems fair. Straya, the lucky country ay

 

[Dunger]

Can't tell 'em to go back to Auskick anymore, that's not fair on the kids to have a cheat umpire their game

 

[YeOldTiger]

Are we taking....bets (gamble responsibly) on which umpire it is ? Lol

 

[db26]

This is what irks me just like we were robbed with the ARC situation the afl is rift with corruption.

 

[tony__montana]

It’s time a Royal commision was done on the AFL corruption

When I heard the news I thought of you ol mate. You've been strong on this for ages

Not surprised in the least, no one can seriously think umps arent impacting games with alterior motives

Under Gilligans watch we have had multiple betting scandals, match has fixing ,racial issues. And it continues on yet our journalist look the other way

Sepp Gilligan says

Sepp Blatter attacks critics as he vows to pull Fifa through corruption crisis

Re-elected president also downplays US corruption investigation as he insists he is the right man to reform world football’s governing body

No, sounds like some corrupt ump gave all the 3.2.1 Brownlow votes to some small gambling syndicate he was involved with. matches he umpired anyway

Match fixing , something even FIFA hasn’t stooped to yet

 

[SunshineBoy]

So what is stopping same corrupt umpire from manipulating the game? or is that beyond the realms of possibility because we are Australians it’s only ………. (insert country name) who are corrupt

 

[Groupie_]

campaigners get sucked off every week lol

If we haven't used all our favours with the Footy Gods, please let it be this muppet.

 

[Al Heimer]

Umpire abuse at next season's games from fans of all clubs (minus Geelol of course) will be orgasmic.

Read a rumour on twitter that it is Matt Stevic.

Interesting if true.

Leigh Fisher was one of the umpires in the Adelaide v Carlton game where Cripps got 3 votes, how bad would that be if its an ex-player?

 

[captain blood 17]

Oh that's right, we were the crazy ones on the Tigercast talking about integrity issues in the umpiring department........f......ing turn it up. Who is honestly shocked by this? We were always correct. I hate what has become of our game. Hey Gil, Jose has a message for you....

 

[NaturalDisaster]

Ump names from our R1 game has been removed from afl website
