That really is an ordinary response. I'd take it up with the Bulldogs, the MFC since they oprate Deesbet, the AFL sincethey seem to be sanctioned or listening to Jon Faine, he seems to like a bit of a crusade against sportsbetting and has no need to worry about station sponsors. My link.

Maybe even your Federal MP, not sure if the new legislation would cover the handing out of promotion material.

I got a reply for the women who was supervising them. She was from Betezy

Basically she said that I was a liar, that my children and wife were also liars, that I had no credibility, that I was agressive and pretty much made up the whole story.

Very disappointing.... Wife in tears...... Oh well, them's the breaks.

Typical response.

I am glad you've pointed this out though.

It's something I'll watch carefully when I see them outside the ground and I'll give them a serious piece of my mind if I see it happen again.

And if they are, all it would take is a short video on an iPhone to put them in a lot of hot water.

Today Tonight or ACA would have a field day with it.

That's the way to do it. Film them on your mobile phone and down load it....solid evidence with not a leg to stand on.

Then contact talk back Radio and TV networks. Betting is a major problem the AFL do not want to know about yet.

Please don't let this one go ucanchoose. It is an absolutely terrible situation, but even worse given the response from them, and even worse seeing the companies own code of conduct. Something needs to happen about all this gambling advertising, it is so incredibly wrong on every level.

Fantastic. I'd listen in, but I'll be at work.

Just heard Dwayne Russel on 3AW ask a (clearly) young tallback caller if he was old enough to give him a beer prize, when the boy said no the idiot then offered him a betting voucher. Ok so made in jest (I hope) but seriously, what an idiot. Maybe he can write a kids book about how fun gambling is.

Good. I had my 3 minutes of fame. They even put a snippet on their news.

The matter is now under investigation by the appropriate authorities - that's about all that I can say about it.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)
