    ON the TAKE T O N Y J O E L a N D M at H E W T U R N E R

    Scandals in sport AN ACCOMPANIMENT TO ON THE TAKE TONY JOEL AND MATHEW TURNER Contemporary Histories Research Group, Deakin University February 2020 he events that enveloped the Victorian Football League (VFL) generally and the Carlton Football Club especially in September 1910 were not unprecedented. Gambling was entrenched in TMelbourne’s sporting landscape and rumours about footballers “playing dead” to fix the results of certain matches had swirled around the city’s ovals, pubs, and back streets for decades. On occasion, firmer allegations had even forced authorities into conducting formal inquiries. The Carlton bribery scandal, then, was not the first or only time when footballers were interrogated by officials from either their club or governing body over corruption charges. It was the most sensational case, however, and not only because of the guilty verdicts and harsh punishments handed down. As our new book On The Take reveals in intricate detail, it was a particularly controversial episode due to such a prominent figure as Carlton’s triple premiership hero Alex “Bongo” Lang being implicated as the scandal’s chief protagonist. Indeed, there is something captivating about scandals involving professional athletes and our fascination is only amplified when champions are embroiled, and long bans are sanctioned. As a by-product of modernity’s cult of celebrity, it is not uncommon for high-profile sportspeople to find themselves exposed by unlawful, immoral, or simply ill-advised behaviour whether it be directly related to their sporting performances or instead concerning their personal lives. Most cases can be categorised as somehow relating to either sex, illegal or criminal activity, violence, various forms of cheating (with drugs/doping so prevalent it can be considered a separate category), prohibited gambling and match-fixing.

    16 November 2018 Jill Gallagher AO Victorian Treaty Advancement Commissioner 116 Cardigan Street Carlton VIC 3053 By email to: [email protected] Dear Jill Submission on the proposed Aboriginal Representative Body model As you know, the Federation of Victorian Traditional Owner Corporations is the peak body representing the interests of Victorian Traditional Owners who have or are in the process of gaining recognition under the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth), Traditional Owner Settlement Act 2010 (Vic), or the Aboriginal Heritage Act 2006 (Vic). Traditional Owner corporations are the primary vehicle through which traditional groups and bodies (however described, be they nations, peoples or clans) have organised for the purpose of asserting and exercising traditional rights to country. We acknowledge that the proposal put forward by the Victorian Treaty Advancement Commission (Commission) envisions such corporations playing a substantial role in the Aboriginal Representative Body, and accordingly, we welcome this opportunity to respond to the proposed model. Please find enclosed our submission. As you can see, we generally support the proposal, and commend the Commission for its diligent work in its development. However, we also provide a number of recommendations which we believe may ultimately strengthen the model and the Treaty process in general. If you have any questions or would like to discuss our submission further, please do not hesitate to contact me. Yours sincerely Marcus Stewart Chief Executive Officer PO Box 431 North Melbourne VIC 3051 (03) 9321 5388 [email protected] www.fvtoc.com.au ABN: 40 164 514 121 Submission on the proposed Aboriginal Representative Body model Introduction This submission is a response to the proposed structure of the Aboriginal Representative Body (ARB), as developed by the Victorian Treaty Advancement Commission (Commission) and set out in the publication titled Treaty Statewide Gathering, dated 25 September 2018 (Proposal).
