  1. I always come back to the elephant in the room on hearing events such as this. To me its perfectly obvious.
  2. Maybe took lesson's from bustling Billy Skelton.
  3. Miss information is in the eye of the beholder. I think what you have done is wrong. I like to decide what I want to read or listen too. I do not need you to decide for me. Your argumentative and combatative stance on every subject does you no favors. I think you should be moderated too. That what I think, and I support Yankiwis right to free speech whether you you deem it misinformation disinformation or not. Keep going like you are and your site will die a slow death.
  4. When I first got involved with training, breeding, rearing, and racing Greyhounds the year was 1985, there was 1 suit along with one secretary to run the entire Greyhound industry. No Chairman, no board of Directors, no racing Manager, and no CEO. Full tote racing had been in existence about 7/8 yrs and there was about 100 meetings a year. Everything was done efficiently with very few problems. When I finished in 2017 the NZGRA had grown to 17 full time suits. CEO, Phil Holden. Head of Racing, Greg Kerr. Head of Welfare, Mairi Stewart. Head of Finance and Administration. Bridget Ng~Wai Head of Marketing and Communications, Katherine O'Connor. Special Projects, Stuart Cashen.tant Assistant Racing Manager, Roger Moore Racing Administrator Officer, Matt Claridge Registrar and Administration Officer, Jo Finlay Office Manager/Executive to CEO Board Chairman, Craig Rendle Directors, Mauro Barsi Graeme Calverly David Emerson Sean Hannan Dave MacAuley Trevor Taylor All members of the board are paid members with expenses. The above list was August 2017, goodness knows what it is today. Now with all that man women power on the payroll, we now find their data base for tracking dogs are full of 30 year plus old dogs that have long dropped of the perch. F#ken brilliant.
  5. You have just named the two most woke airlines in the world. The rainbow loving Qantas tried to cancel Israel Folau for quoting Bible scripture so no surprise there. Both airlines are famous for letting the latest politics and touchy fairly trends obscurer their judgment.
  6. You are right SA, 90% cowards or stupid, 10% strong and with a back bone as evidenced during the covid scam. Not the NZ it once was.
  7. Those wanker activists need to be dealt with violently. Trainers need to arm themselves with a bat or two and break some sculls, time for appeasement to end. If it meant jail, so be it, these scum have ruined your lives, time to front up.
  8. Well done Freda, problem was I did not back the right one, didn't look down the page far enough. Bugger.
  9. Look its obvious, Entain/TAB have done a backroom deal. As for the other two codes, they are weak, only interested in themselves, shit their rompers first sign of trouble. No cavalry on the horizon for the dogs, only swarms of angry, vaxed, woke activists. Glad I lived through a time before the idiots and insane took over. Next gallops, trots, rodeo, polo, eventing, pig hunting for the chop.
  10. Southland need to be closed immediately. They are incompetent, and the place is a disaster for dogs. Its not a good look for public and punter. Lure malfunctions are not new here, been happening regularly for 30yrs and never improved, and now their surface has gone from the best to the worst. Sad but true. And to think the bulk of the dogs travel over a thousand kilometers round trip to support this madness.
  11. They are a bad lot this Entain. I believe they have done a backroom deal re the Greyhounds. They also are fans of apartheid system's re their dividing their customers with this second platform called Betcha. Personally I think they will not last long.
  12. What about Rocketship CEO, was that Bickford, rode bikes and came from Hastings. Tried to rort the other two code's by inflating the turnover at Wanganui so as to get a bigger slice of the TAB payout.
  13. Black Anibus comes to mind. Brought to NZ for Silver Collar. Trained up with live kill death sounds matching phone sounds. Ring phone when behind boxes.
  14. Evidence suggests a good portion of punters are code specific, a good portion will be lost to the churn. I'm confident it cannot enhance their business.
