Geelong Cats Under Scrutiny Over Concussion Deal

The Geelong Cats are under investigation following a reported secret deal with a player that required them to assume liability for future brain trauma.

The Geelong Cats have been identified as the club behind a reported deal with a player who had a history of concussion. The arrangement, slammed by the AFL Players Association, would allow the player to continue playing if the club was protected from future liabilities.

The Herald Sun first reported the arrangement without naming the club, but by afternoon, multiple media outlets identified the Cats. The club has been contacted for comment regarding the alleged concussion deal. truewildslot.com
