Hot Breakfast chief footy reporter Tom Browne says that Collingwood and the AFL are investigating a “betting irregularity” involving Jaidyn Stephenson.
The 20-year-old is the reigning Rising Star, picking up 52 of a possible 55 votes to win comfortably ahead of Tom Doedee.
Browne said he expects the AFL to address the incident at a press conference today, and that Stephenson could be facing suspension.
Heath Shaw was suspended for 14 weeks with six suspended and fined $20,000 with $10,000 in 2011 when he was found to have placed a $10 bet on a $101 shot.
Eddie McGuire responded to potential new list concessions for Brisbane and Gold Coast on the Hot Breakfast this morning.
