Collingwood was today fined $20,000 for a breach of AFL Rule 30 during last Friday night’s match against West Coast at Optus Stadium.
Rule 30 prohibits the use of mobile phones by players and unauthorised staff during matches. The rule was established to protect the integrity of our sport.
Innocent though the breach was – a fact established with the AFL - Collingwood accepts and understands the penalty and will ensure such a breach is not repeated.
