So in sum and on topic, given the AFL lads in here haven’t been able to rummage even one example in rebuttals , at this point we can safely say the AFL has supported the most scum of the earth types to reach and be revered at the top of the institution than any of the other codes in Australia...by far....and possibly on a per capital basis the AFL has had the most scum bags in leadership positions than any pro sport in the world.

Mark Coyne has quit his role as an Australian Rugby League Commissioner.
Coyne stood down from the commission last week following an incident in Singapore two months ago, when the former Dragons and Queensland Origin star had pleaded guilty to the charge of abusing a police officer and was fined $4100.
"I have tendered my resignation as an Australian Rugby League Commissioner following a meeting with Peter Beattie at which he advised me that, in his judgment, I did not have the full support of some of the NRL clubs to continue my role on the Commission," Coyne said in a statement.
"I have no wish for my role as a Commissioner to be a burden on the Commission or the game itself.
"I want to thank Peter for his support of me in relation to this matter.
"Again, I regret deeply what happened in Singapore and my delayed reporting of it.
There are lies, damn lies and then there are ratings.
