‘Mind-blowing’: David Schwarz baffled by Crown’s exclusion from gambling reforms

Former AFL player David Schwarz has said it’s “mind-blowing” that Crown Casino has been excluded from the new poker machine reforms by the state government.

Schwarz is a former problem gambler himself and a responsible gambling ambassador for ALT Hotels, and believes the new reforms will only make a “minor” difference on gamblers.

“It’s not tackling the biggest problem which is online,” Schawrz told Neil Mitchell.
