Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At Stirling Motorworks, we believe that NRL betting should be enjoyed as entertainment only — not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We're committed to promoting safe, responsible gaming practices and supporting our community.
Age Verification & Legal Requirements
Online betting is only available to persons aged 18 years and over in Australia. It is illegal for minors to participate in gambling activities.
By accessing our betting services, you confirm that you are 18 years of age or older and meet all legal requirements in your jurisdiction.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be honest with yourself — if you notice any of the following warning signs, it may be time to seek help:
- ☐ Spending more time or money on betting than you intended
- ☐ Chasing losses by betting more to recover money you've lost
- ☐ Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- ☐ Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when you're not gambling
- ☐ Borrowing money or using credit to fund your betting
- ☐ Neglecting work, school, family, or personal responsibilities
- ☐ Gambling to escape stress, depression, anxiety, or other negative emotions
- ☐ Lying about the amount of money you've spent on betting
- ☐ Feeling unable to stop or control your gambling
- ☐ Jeopardizing relationships, job, or educational opportunities due to gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, help is available.
