5.9 Entrants must provide accurate and complete information. An Entry containing information that is inaccurate or incomplete is invalid.
5.10 An Entry is invalid where it is submitted by a script, macro, bot or other automated means, by bulk or coordinated entry, through a disposable, temporary or forwarding email address, or by any other method that in the Promoter's reasonable opinion circumvents clause 5.6. The Promoter may remove such Entries before the Draw without notice.

10.6 Where the recipient does not provide a valid delivery address within 7 days of acceptance, the Prize is forfeited and clause 7 applies.
10.7 The Promoter may withdraw the Prize, or require its return, where the recipient engages in conduct that is unlawful, or that in the Promoter's reasonable opinion brings or is likely to bring the Promoter, the Promotion or American football in Australia into disrepute.
