Mozzie, i'm not sure why i bother trying to explain this to you, this is more for others who may actually believe what you say.

With Board matters, there is not enough information on the records but word of mouth,

My word of mouth is Pratt couldn't remove some directors and that was a fact.

Ask youself why Pratt did not take on the destructive elliott and take the Presidency- but 5 years after Elliott was pushed out by Collo?

Why didn't anyone take on Elliot? You blame Pratt because he put his hand up after Collo dug is deeper in the hole that we couldn't get out of?

In 1981 Collo was appointed Secretary-Manager of the Carlton Football Club, a position he filled with distinction for twelve years. In this time the Blues won three more flags. In 1993 he became the AFL Director of Football Operations....

On wikipedia (yes, i know) there is a whole stack of salary cap breaches listed.
I find these 2 the most interesting in light of what you quoted above.

- Three clubs were fined for minor breaches in 1993: Melbourne ($13,450), Carlton ($9,750) and Footscray ($2,700).[7]
- In 1994, Carlton were fined $50,000 after it was found that they had exceeded the salary cap by $85,000 during the 1993 season.[8]

So yes, he was in charge. In doing so he would've set up things for a few years in advance (contracts run for more than 1 year) and are setup before the season starts - ie, while Collo was in charge.

He setup dodgy payments. Went to his new role at the AFL and pointed the finger straight back at us and got us fined.

Not only that, because of these prior breaches, when our 2001/2 salary cap breaches came out we got a bigger fine because we were 'serial offenders'.

So sure all hail collo, who has bent us over multiple times.
