THE AFL has launched a review of betting protocols surrounding its major medals as police investigate last year’s plunge on Lewis Taylor’s Rising Star win.

Former North Melbourne dual premiership player and Herald Sun columnist David King is being investigated for two bets he says he put on Taylor, winning him $2975.

JON RALPH: FIX RISING STAR BETTING OR SCRAP IT

The Herald Sun revealed Victoria Police were also interviewing a former Fox Footy producer who helped broadcast the Rising Star event.

King has denied using inside information to place his winning bets.

Evans suggested any new security measures around its major awards would be enforced this year if it was deemed necessary.

“Fair to say we will review, or we are reviewing our procedures around the Rising Star and other awards,” Evans said.

“We will make sure we have got those (new measures) in place before this year’s awards take place.”
