About hecken time

 

[El Topo]

Gambling companies are all about ingraining themselves as an 'inherent' part of the game. Maybe the Women's league has reminded us what AFL can and should be like...

21 gambling ad spots on GF day. Would have thought it was that during the game alone.

How's this for playground quality buck-passing?

An AFL spokesman said the league had done what it could by curbing advertising at venues, but said TV advertising was a matter for the Federal Government.

then

A statement from the Communications Minister, Mitch Fifield, said the Government was aware of community concern about the issue, but shifted responsibility onto the broadcasters.

"Broadcasters have a responsibility under the co-regulatory framework to ensure that their advertising meets community expectations," it said.

you get the government you deserve.......no-one deserves these idiots (libs or labor) or the sporting regulators that compete with them for stupidity

TV station will say it is not illegal and it pays for the broadcast deal. Going to go full circle before anyone has to do anything.

But according to Caroline Wilson it's a disgrace how the CEO of the AFL's Chief Broadcaster (Channel 7) can still hold his a position whilst allegations about his sexual peccadillos and harassment issues have not been resolved.

Nah, no longer Russian, I am now Finnish.

 

[BlueGum]

And Bobcat doesn't reckon the 16 a side thread can get to 16 pages. Shoe-in.

Interesting. Wonder if they only gave it to him on the proviso he was intending to stay past this season? Or is it a desperate attempt to keep him there?

 

[Jeremias]

Are they the first club in AFL history to have 4 different captains in 4 years?

 

[Aphrodite]
