The personal abuse by SOME fans is juvenile, irritating inane and degrading.
The topic is very good and could make for some lively posts but the content of some posts is deplorable.
Yes, most teams have at one time been over the salary cap and when an amnesty was offered by the AFL, all with the exception of 2 clubs took up that offer. The Boards of Ess and Melb believed that tbey had no need of the offer of amensty and only cried foul when caught out.
Carlton has previously been caught cheating the salary cap and compared to Ess and Melb, Carlton appears to have escaped with a comparatively light fine.
Therefore the onus is upon the AFL to make their findings transparent and show why each club was penalised, and only then can accurate comparisons be made.
