What I was getting at in my question on gambling was whether the SOC model could be a way of replacing that money. Many sports are extremely dependent on gambling money. It is certainly not an ideal situation. I refer to the impacts on broader society as well, which we will not go into here. Is the SOC initiative an opportunity in this context? Are we on to something here in respect of how we can get rid of the dependency on gambling?
