Matt Hansen was at St Kilda for a while too.
I think Waldron head hunted him after he took over at the Storm.
Fair bet that St Kilda's Salary Cap will be investigated

It is unbelievable, the stupidity of the fraudsters is incredible.

Just looking forward to us having a real crack each week, and appreciating the younger talent coming through.

Re: Fair bet that St Kilda's Salary Cap will be investigated
I understand that when Carlton was done that ALL clubs were investigated.philip wrote:Given Brian Waldron has been implicated by the NRL and now SEN for his alleged role in the salary cap rorting, it is a fair bet that additional scrutiny will now be placed on the Saints player payement/contracts while he was our CEO.
Expect there to be stories on this and on us in the papers over coming days.
I'm hoping like hell we are ok, because I have that many Carlton friends who will only be too happy to return my jibes with interest!!!

Cooking the books is pretty old school anyway. The new way of doing things is to find businesses to sponsor players outside of the sport. Look at Judd and Visy, Ablett and Cotton On (potentially), etc, etc. All the clubs do it now. The AFL cannot touch you for that.

Premiers stripped of 2 premiersahips and 3 minor premierships.
I knew it had to be Geelong but the media seem to have got the story confused.
IT MUST BE GEELONG how else could they be better than the Saints.

Even though we were a good side back then I doubt we would have been 100% of the cap because we were young. They would have needed room as the players got older and wanted more money.

THE AFL will investigate St Kilda players' contracts during Brian Waldron's stewardship of that club from 2002 until 2004.
The Age understands investigator Ken Wood interviewed Waldron in 2003 over the Saints' departed ruckman Peter Everitt, who demanded more than $100,000 from his former club as he tried to recover money from his old contract. The Everitt case is expected to be looked at again.

Really, if they were serious, they would investigate the entire code.
Same goes for League.
If one's doing it, sure enough the rest will be too.

I might be making a mountain out of a molehill here but I can't help but worry just a little.
Someone reassure everything will be fine.
Both Hammill and Gehrig were already at the Saints (on contracts) prior to Waldron taking over as CEO.
Maybe an extension/new contract was signed for both whilst he was in charge, but those contracts would have been scrutinized a number of times by the AFL already.
St Kilda, like all AFL Clubs uses certain schemes to pay its players adn the AFL have investigated those schemes a number of times.
They have all been passed.

rb would have signed off on everything, though. the club wasn't spending much in those days if the financial reports are anything to go on (IMO).Waltzing St Kilda wrote:Don't forget that GT had a hand in player contracts and the AFL would like nothing better than to destroy his credibility.
