I partly think that was the whole reason for that little swipe, to cut out speculation that it was Ray. Cant let the AFLs poster-boy be tarnished with rampant speculation.
Iād say no but tell us anyway.

No.
Itās much more dangerous to say one ump is corrupt than to say all of them are. Ask Hird.

Fair enough. It wasnt a reliable source anyway.
So, umpires are fixing matches. Well I could have told you that years ago.
And who would have thought 11,000 Sportsbet ads a day on Australian TV wouldnāt cause problems? What do ya know?

Were the betting agencies offering match specific brownlow bets?
Thatās gotta be open to insider skullduggery.

The media are burying the lead for some reason.
The headline is āUmpire accused of Brownlow vote leaking rortā
Surely āAFL umpire arrested for Brownlow vote leakingā is what it should be.

Canāt blame umpires for this, as they believe all rules are open to interpretation.

Typical scummy umpires.
Can the AFL just hurry up and make Cripps hand back his Brownlow. Allowing Fark Carlton to think it still belongs to him is just wrong given this scandal.

I understand the umpire tried to flee police running backwards.
