Admitting Problem with Online Casinos

The Australian news has been hot to pick up the latest story from the Aussie sports industry – one of the country’s brightest football players has officially come forward and admitted that he has a problem with online casino gambling and betting. In fact, Brendan Fevola, playing forward for the Brisbane Lions, even announced that he needs and will seek out counseling for his addiction. Fevola’s announcement comes at a rocky time for the Australian online casino betting and gambling industry and is only strengthening the government’s anit-internet gambling position as of late. Fevola’s announcement is news to the world, but in fact, Fevola first told his coach of the problems at the beginning of the year and has been undergoing treatment since February.

Online casinos and betting in particularly are rocky ground for sporting players; they are strictly forbidden from betting on teams and games within their own sport and even any sort of association with the internet betting is seen as suspect. Fevola though is well aware of the integrity in sports protocols and assures that he has never once used the online casinos or land bookies to bet on a football game – an action that could get him kicked out of the Australian Football League for a time if the assertion proves false.

Fevola has come forward with the announcement and also notes that he will continue to play footy and that his ability to play the game has not been at all affected by his online caisno betting and gambling addiction. As an additional note, Fevola’s debts are being noted as roughly $100,000 owed to three separate Aussie bookies, a debt he is working on paying back now that he is in counseling.
