Re: Drop Centrebet sponsorship
"We haven't connected with anywhere near enough supporters. There are a lot of people out there that barrack for St Kilda who aren't on board yet. "I want them involved. I want them to come and face the challenges with us." These are our coaches statements. Our principal sponsor is on...

Drop Centrebet sponsorship
After dropping a Perth based online gambling service, the Wildcats have now picked up their biggest sponsor ever. This is a Commonwealth government agency, I wonder if our management has explored or has complacency set in with online gambling? http://www.sportspromedia.com/news/perth_wildcats_sign_l...

Re: Saints Fabric Guernsey Promotion
I could not help but notice sponsorships for Blackwoods, Uvex, 3M, Masterlock, ASG and many others Let's drop Centrebet and go for some of the really big names like North Melbourne have. Ozito? Linen House? Mazda is a world wide brand. This would be a terrific sponsorship. It would be great if our ...

Re: Saints Fabric Guernsey Promotion
In regards to the point about children using online gambling. Before anyone can use one of these online sites, they must register an account. Companies such as Centrebet use online verification methods such as using your credit file, or electoral roll information to verify that the person creating ...

Sports betting is so on the nose that even the government is beginning to limit promotion. It is today's news. "the Government believed the promotion of live odds during sports broadcasts could encourage gambling among vulnerable people, including children" http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news...

Actually over 30% of regular poker machine gamblers are already addicts or at risk of becoming addicts. I will explain the concept. Only a small part of our life is spent as a child.

Re: Saints Fabric Guernsey Promotion
Cigarettes are legal. But they were banned due to having a negative influence on the health of our population. This is the same evidence about about gambling. In particular, online gambling, that has only emerged in the last two years, is a particularly dangerous form of this adult only entertainmen...

Re: Saints Fabric Guernsey Promotion
I think you will find that sponsorships dont come around so easy. If you can find us a milti-million dollar replacement please let us know. Roos seem to have reduced their debt without a sponsor that encourages online betting. Seems like our management can't. Maybe we need to pay for management who...

Re: Should our heritage be used to sell online betting?
Only a member of the Saints and only follow the Saints. Had never attended a Saint's AGM but felt strongly about how the Centrebet sponsorship diminishes our club. Attended one Pies' AGM years ago as a member of the media but said nothing. Other than that, have not participated in any other AFL AGM....

Geelong have publicly distanced themselves from all other AFL clubs by stating they will support betting limits. http://www.geelongadvertiser.com.au/article/2011/09/27/281871_opinion.html We should at least do that.

Re: Should our heritage be used to sell online betting?
I was invited to debate Frank Costa of the GFC on 774 a few years ago. While I don't remember his exact words, Mr Costa stated how much he deplored pokie gambling and that he was aware of the damage it caused the addicted and their families. Clearly, his club has acted on these principles.

Re: Should our heritage be used to sell online betting?
Enrico - you simply got your facts wrong. Research shows that when pokies are taken away, problem gambling simply drops. But that's not the real point. There are countless sponsors that are good corporate citizens and they are in the vast majority. The glass is more than half full. Let's not take th...

Should our heritage be used to sell online betting?
I say that 'St Kilda' and "The Saints" should stand for something better. We sell ourselves too cheaply. It shouldn't happen again no matter what Mr Westaway says of other's bad behaviour.
