Quite amazing to think, after all of the education process with the Shaw case, that is has happened again.
The quoted payouts suggest two bets of $200 and $400.

"An investigation found Bock broke the rules recklessly, but, importantly, he did not intend the information to be used for betting," Anderson said....
So if Bock did not intend for the information to be used for betting why did he feel "concerned" as soon as he'd kicked the goal?

Agree. Probably should've got half the season (and yes I would still say that if he was still at the crows)

Easy answer is to get rid of stupid bet types like first goal kicker. If the betting agencies want to put up a market for these types of bets they do so at their own risk. The chances are they will get burnt from time to time.

Feel a bit sorry for the player in this instance, assuming it was all said “innocently” as claimed.
