AFL’s Tippett hearing wraps up

The marathon AFL Commission hearing into the Kurt Tippett saga has finally ended.

Adelaide officials and Tippett left AFL house just before 5pm on Friday, with the hearing lasting nearly nine hours.

The AFL are likely to hold a media conference around 5.30pm to announce the commission’s findings.

Tippett, the Crows, their chief executive Steven Trigg, football operations manager Phil Harper and his predecessor John Reid were facing a total of 11 charges.

These all involve draft tampering and salary cap breaches and stem from the three-year deal that Tippett signed with Adelaide in 2009.

Tippett has nominated for the December 11 pre-season draft and depending on what the commission decides on his two charges, he is most likely to join Sydney.
