I would rather see an end to sports betting advertising before alcohol. At least the alcohol advertising is not integrated into sports tv coverage.

What do you mean "not integrated"? Alcohol advertising is present in the most popular sport in Australia, AFL football.

I can't say anything about Channel 7, but during the Foxtel coverage, during every pre-match, and Friday and Saturday post-matches they have to cross to a man from the betting company to give them the odds for other games in the round etc. I don't see them cross to someone from CUB or Lion Nathan to give the beer update.
