Rumour has it (repeated in Sportsbeat last week) that 2 SANFL clubs are looking to set up off site pokie venues in the near future. Whether that be in relocating their machines or taking over an existing pub lease it was not stated.
All 9 clubs now run profitable venues, some at their home ground, others relocated to main road sites elsewhere (North, Eagles, Sturt, Norwood). All are crucial to the financial standing of the clubs, although the heavy reliance on them is a concern.
So who are the 2 clubs in question and what are their plans?. I'm guessing Westies may be one, in looking to relocate their pokies to a main road site away from Milner road. No idea who the other may be.
Anyone to shed any light on this?
