Vic: Footy great pursued by tax office

Aussie Rules great ROBERT DIPIERDOMENICO is being pursued by the Australian Tax Office
for more than 650-thousand dollars.

The Sunday Herald-Sun newspaper reports the Brownlow medallist and high-profile personality
is being chased in the Supreme Court for 653-thousand dollars in unpaid taxes and fines.

The five-time Hawthorn premiership player has underpaid his taxes for nine years ..

according to the tax office writ lodged in the Supreme Court last week.

Mr DIPIERDOMENICO says he's flabbergasted by the writ and claims he claims he doesn't
know anything about it at all.

It's alleged he underpaid tax from June 30 .. 1997 .. to June 30 .. 2006.

Dipper .. as he's known .. played in Hawthorn's 1989 Grand Final win over Geelong and
was inducted into the AFL Hall of Fame in 2007.
