Sophisticated or not there is also no suggestion that the Crows are super intelligent in knowingly and deliberately breaching the Salary Cap rules AND deliberately tampering with the Draft after the AFL explicitly stated in 2002 that any club found guilty of breaching these AFL rules in future would be treated extremely harshly as a result of the example made of Carlton.

So any suggestion of going easy or treating Adelaide leniently is going to expose the AFL for the flowering hypocrits that they are.

And as for the Adelaide apologists in the media suggesting the AFL go easy in Adelaide because there cheating is not as bad as Carlton exposes them as the biased and double standard windbags that they really are.

And lets all remind the media of THIS position when the obvious hypocritical decision is made by the AFL. I can see it now.

I might be wrong but if players other than Tippett are found to also have unacknowledged third party deals I reckon the AFL just might smack 'em harder than most of us expect.

It's currently a wealthy club so the fine component's neither here nor there.

Get out the baby oil I say!
