AFL investigation into Geelong's secret concussion waiver nears conclusion as sanctions loom

The AFL hired independent legal counsel to investigate Geelong's secret concussion-waiver clause in Jake Kolodjashnij's contract — an agreement neither the AFL nor the AFLPA had seen. Kolodjashnij, 31, named himself on August 8. Findings were expected early this week. Geelong face sanctions. AFL Commission chair Craig Drummond, a former Cats president, has apologised.
