@jonmac1954 Gambling and association with football. You best visit the history of our Club before you die on the hill with that argument.

Laurie you are talking about a single club - I am talking about the Governing body of our sport.

Big difference in outcomes - huge.

@jonmac1954 All you're projecting is a personal view via a broad swipe on gambling in society and sport, where the Brownlow vote was additional catalyst for this.
If you're saying the two are naturally mutually exclusive, you'd need to articulate that.
Before gambling, there was alcohol and tobacco advertising / revenues. One was phased out and replaced with a lesser of two evils?
But the discussion belongs in the VPT forum https://magpies.net/viewforum.php?f=7 or if it's only AFL that's corrupted, via Nicks Other VFL https://magpies.net/viewforum.php?f=37 if it indeed impacts the Collingwood FC.
