    Lol. No one in the media has the gall to run with it either. Piss. Weak.
    Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

    Is that an issue though? It's nepotism manifest of course but is there some kind of breach? Is there a coaches salary cap or anything?

    There?s a salary cap (called the soft cap for some reason) that limits what every AFL club can spend on football department and coaching staff.

    Thanks I didn't know it was inclusive of the coach. I probably should but I don't pay much attention to this stuff.

    Yeah that stinks to high heaven.

    I reckon the fuzz in G Town know if they find a player passed out they just call the Cats welfare manager or something.

    I don?t know the exact details but I do know there are allowances for a portion of the head coach salary to be paid outside the cap, but I doubt being paid by a sponsor on top is within the spirit of it all.

    No doubt. 90% of the cops down there would be Cats nuffies like the rest of the population and will do anything to protect the club. Very mafia like.

    I heard Bevo is getting paid $200k to dress up as a giant tortilla at our next aflw match. All above board.

    I'd actually chip in for that.

    Gratifying to see that my Shithole Pork-Barrell Park bandwagon has been slightly more successful in luring new recruits than my James Harmes one.

    That doesn't sound dodgy in the slightest does it?
    So much for a soft cap.

    I have my own version of the Hippocratic Oath, Don't Play Harmes.

    Right behind you on Sedat Stadium though.
