The AFL's product is inextricably linked to on-line gambling, by design. You can't go on to the AFL app and learn the upcoming week's games without knowing the odds, consider Nathan Brown's info segments - its hard to know where the analysis ends and the gambling add begins; the game's integrity well diminished with experts giving tips and then the odds. Every second add on Fox Footy is a blokey add flogging gambling products, we all know this.
But the AFL is going to come down like a tonne of bricks on a kid who probably got roped into all that, who whilst being told not to do it - did do it. Maybe he succumbed to their media blitz? Whats the AFL's skin in the game in all this and is their a level of hypocrisy attached to it?
