The AFL has advised St Kilda Football Club tonight that the investigation involving Stephen Milne and Collingwood FC player, Harry O'Brien, has been concluded.
It has been confirmed that Milne made an inappropriate homophobic comment towards O'Brien during the course of play in last weekend's Round 19 match at the MCG which has breached the AFL Players' Code of Conduct and the AFL's Policy on Discrimination and Vilification.
As a consequence of this breach, Milne will be sanctioned $3000 by the St Kilda FC and be required to undertake an AFL Education Program to address the inappropriate nature of his comments.
Stephen Milne has apologised for his comments and any offence caused.
