AFL reveals what Butters said in alleged umpire sledge
Zak Butters has been ordered to face the AFL Tribunal on Tuesday after the league revealed the wording of his alleged insult toward umpire Nick Foot.
Butters is alleged to have said “How much are they paying you?” to the whistleblower during the third term of Port Adelaide’s fiery clash against St Kilda on Sunday.
The three-time Power club champion and acting captain was charged with abusive and insulting language toward an umpire, setting the scene for what shapes as an intriguing tribunal hearing.
