Breaking News. Port Melbourne VFL team have sold their Pokie Machines. The club will no longer be affiliated with Pokie Machines.
It’s huge news from a VFL perspective. The club operated its Pokie Machines out of The Rex hotel in Bay Street Port Melbourne for close to 30 years.
It’s a similar move to what AFL clubs are doing as they withdraw from their Pokie machines as well. It’s the second VFL club we have seen Pull out of pokies with Frankston the most recent in 2015.
Since it’s off season i decided to ask what does the future of the comp look like long term and what it means for the standalone clubs since it has become clear we are disposable to the afl and we will have to go without the afl some day
An interesting read:
