  1. From a NZ Entain point of view, of course they would love to continue to provide betting on Aus dogs…. but for all the reasons it is getting banned in NZ, its quite alright to show Aus racing for purely gambling? Remember Tasmania is phasing out dog racing…and the Victorian government has said it could save $500m if it follows Tasmania in phasing out, estimates the government would save $451m between 2025/2026 and 2035/2036 if it stopped subsidising greyhound racing and closed the industry…. interesting indeed…
  2. Totally agree…. but just watch, the Aus greyhound betting will not go ahead in NZ once racing stops here. Will be pressure on bigtime, and rightly so, one could say that Aus dog racing is run worse than NZ…. In fact, the only 2 dogs really looked after in Aus was Coco and Son Of Coco…Darryl Kerrigan and family even took them on holiday to Bonnie Doon…😁 A great movie… interestingly its been reported that Michael Caton was only paid $3000 for his lead role…. i would have told him ya dreamin….
  3. Will be smaller soon once Dog racing finishes.
  4. Not sure limit now, as Addington dont race much over a mile anymore, but i am pretty sure limit was 10? Is that correct? I too would like to see less runners in racing at certain tracks from a betting view.
  5. Wow…. thats a crazy decision. Unless you have a real sprint horse and luckily get a draw that suits…. for the majority of the field, they will struggle.
  6. But majority of NZ tracks are not designed for mile racing? So America predominantly race over a mile, but they dont have their most prestigious race run over 3200m from a stand?
  7. Whats with all these short distance races lately, apart from 2 x 2400m races the rest are 1700m? I try to avoid betting on low class sprint races…
  8. Wow…. used to be a top class field…. pretty 2nd rate now.
  9. That $8 still in there….not much use if you cant deposit and have a punt is it? Funny, a few weeks back you stated nothing wrong with Entains 2 crappy apps….
  10. This is what app should look like, first time in ages was going to deposit… in the end got aussie mate to place bets, Betcha glitches …. Oh dear
  11. What a joke…
  12. Well…. As per usual, Betcha App very slow…. mainly at peak times….TAB app is not showing balance or log in…. FFS, what a circus.
  13. Yeah great ride, but also shows how far behind NZ nags are behind Aus nags. The best Nz horses were well and truly spanked, as well the jockeys. Did happen in many races, jockeys full tit till they get to front… then jam on the handbreak🫣
  14. He should retire, if he is medically unfit he will still receive ACC. He is 61, gosh i thought he was about 70 now,
  15. So anyone that his close to him… surely he has retired, not rode for years.
