why has the AFL taken almost a year to do anything about tanking with the demons?????????
They haven't. The evidence arose mid season.

Here is another one for ya......why has the AFL not done anything about the salary cap rorts perpetrated by the Crows???? Because they only found out about the issue a month ago and the crows requested time for a defense?c

Is it going to take another year for another investigation???? You mean like the NRL took a year to investigate the storm who won a flag during that time?

why has the AFL back flipped on the visy deal with Judd??? Who knows? What's your point?

Why does the AFL give cap concessions to all the expansion sides in the AFL???? They don't!

And why is the AFL rigging the competition for GWS, SUNS with all the draft picks???? Because theyre developing sides with inexperienced lists.

Nice try eels

Has Cronulla ever made a profit at the end of a season before? Have they ever had over 10,000 members? Have they ever had an average crowd of 20,000?

Cronulla, like many nRL clubs, are a disgrace to Australian sport.

Sharks might ..... pork swordelaide definetly will ....
adding to massive debts they're already holding

if Sharks do lose money in 2013 it will at least be to a clean debt free slate
and
I'd doubt the Sharks will lose next year anyway... a 4 million a year increase in revenue straight off the bat for next year ... will see they don't

Sharks >>>>>> Port slumelaide

11 if you included the 2 latest basketcases .... & these losses combined in the tens of millions
hell .. the wions & pork swordelaide .. 5 million between them

& in 2013
it will be ZERO ... out of 16 NRL clubs losing money ... with an extra 3 million straight to every clubs bottom lines ... easily covering their tiny losses will the VFL be able to claim the same ...... ?

the Sharks put a 10 million dollar debt to rest last week
paid it off completely in one foul swoop to the St George Bank

they're now .. debt free

can pork swordelaide say the same ?

EXCLUSIVE: The future of the Cronulla Sharks has been secured by final NSW government approval for a $300 million Leagues club development.

The decision, to be revealed later today, allows the Sharks to immediately pay off a debt of more than $10 million to St George Bank.

Under the proposal approved by government’s planning assessment commission, a consortium of building developers will pay off the loan in return for sales from home units that will be built on the site.

The development will include a shopping centre, a residential area and a refurbishment of Shark Park.

“This secures our long term future in the NRL,” said one senior Sharks official.

“It is the biggest financial injection in the club’s history.

“We can now compete with the strongest clubs.”

The project will create 1100 jobs over an eight-year period

The club's chairman Damian Irvine said project managers were keen to re-employ hundreds of Caltex Refinery workers from the area who recently lost their jobs.

close em down ..... they're a joke
