Legalised gambling should never have been allowed into the game.

Nothing good will ever come from it but plenty of suspicion and possible corruption will.

Gambling has a lengthy track record of shady operations and corruption.

I've no problem with friendly betting your mates whatever you want but linking to the bastards that are just in it to milk what they can from it is a bad move.
Why? The game has no control in legislating gambling. It is going to happen regardless if they endorse it or not. Might as well take the sponsorship dollars.

You might want to bring a claim against your keyboard manufacturer because it appears that your question mark and exclamation mark buttons are getting stuck.

So the Gambling institutions require no permission to use all the registered trademark names of the Clubs and the NRL in their markets?

That seems strange.

I don't know I'm not an authority in Australian Law on the subject. I doubt it has ever been tested.

Prohibition doesn't stop gambling though. Have a look into the history of SP bookmaking in Australia.

The offshore sportsbooks are also beneath the law. There is little recourse if they were found to be breaching Australian copyright laws.

Excellent point. The way the NRL is allowing gambling to creep insidiously into our game is disgraceful --- even to the extent it's being promoted during the game commentary. I know the game needs every dollar it can get but this is short sighted in the extreme.
