  • The International World of Sport and the Liability for Off-Field Indiscretions
    Bond Law Review Volume 23 | Issue 1 Article 3 2011 The nI ternational World of Sport and the Liability for Off-Field Indiscretions Chris Davies Follow this and additional works at: http://epublications.bond.edu.au/blr This Article is brought to you by the Faculty of Law at ePublications@bond. It has been accepted for inclusion in Bond Law Review by an authorized administrator of ePublications@bond. For more information, please contact Bond University's Repository Coordinator. The nI ternational World of Sport and the Liability for Off-Field Indiscretions Abstract The recent terminations of the contracts of NRL player, Joel Monaghan and the AFL’s Brendan Fevola, for off-field indiscretions, has highlighted the significance of the bringing the game into disrepute clauses contained in standard player contracts. Tiger Woods’ extra-marital affairs received extensive world wide media attention, and the outcome of this negative coverage was the loss of millions of dollars in sponsorship deals. This indicates that such contracts can be terminated on the basis that a sportsperson’s behaviour was having a negative impact on the sponsor’s image. It is for the same reason that sponsors have put pressure on the governing bodies of team sports to take appropriate action for off-field indiscretions. The Court of Arbitration in D’Arcy v Australian Olympic Committee, has also held that a competitor’s behaviour in an incident where criminal charges were laid, may, in itself be sufficient to bring a sport, or themselves, into disrepute, regardless of whether the competitor is later found guilty or innocent.

  • ADELAIDE CROWS BERNIE VINCE (Mid) $381,800 Having Played in the SANFL Last Week, Vince Is Likely to Be One of a Host of Inclusions for Adelaide This Round
    ADELAIDE CROWS BERNIE VINCE (Mid) $381,800 Having played in the SANFL last week, Vince is likely to be one of a host of inclusions for Adelaide this round. He hasn’t played at AFL level since Round 5 and has averaged 87 points per match from his four appearances this season. CHRIS KNIGHTS (Fwd) $320,900 Knights’ form away from home this season has been far less convincing compared to that at AAMI Stadium. He averages 23 fewer points per match interstate compared to home – the second-worst differential of anyone that has played all nine games at Adelaide this year.
