  1. Tend to agree. Thought it was a false start, and i am sure some drivers did too
  2. Mmmm, interesting race.
  3. Yeah, but to be honest at least old Trev you can understand what he is saying, but ok his eyes are shit. Darryl just mumbles in his call, very hard to clearly understand which dog he is calling. I know its a hard game, but just call who is in the front few, why bother going back thru the field, we all know 99% of the time where div payers will be half way thru race. No good calling a dog that begins fast, only to be told its last.
  4. Wayne? Wayne Higgs?
  5. Not sure, i bet it will be now
  6. Yay, we agree. Too right, only got told tonight? Which tells me they read this site, and know that they will finish one two!! Why has stipes not told public?
  7. At least tab are trying something new, anyone get this today, or similar?
  8. Newmarket

    Dog Caller?

    The odd time i have a bet on the dogs, i usually watch on tv. This guy Darryl today at Hatrick, how bad is he. You have no idea what is in front, he says something begins well, then goes thru test of field, race is finished, nothing in front like he stated?? What a joke
  9. Yeah, good effort. He might surprise a few when he sets up at auckland too
  10. You cant knock these boys for ideas! Go boys go!
  11. Thanks, but to be honest, only my views. Some may not like this vocal group that like an ale, but i say good on them.
  12. Agree with you, i was 50/50 on them initially, but since joining them on facebook, i think they are great. Guys comment on horses they own, tips etc. Well done these guys.
  13. Could Mark, Nat or anyone else connected to the stable, please give an update of Dream About Me and Elle Mac for Fridays race. I am sure we are all expecting a huge form turnaround from both horses, but can someone offer info on previous runs from both horses. I can see a far quicker time, far quicker last halve, these two running 1-2.
  14. Didnt tickets cost $100 anyway? If they are buying bulk why not? Obviously worked for club
  15. Well, here is a quick thought. First of all the racing club. Obviously give them free entrance and a room to entertain in at no cost, make them pay reasonable prices for drinks and food. As for rebates, no reason why club and tab could not split rebate, maybe 1.5% each on turnover. Tab look after elite customers, so why not these guys as they bet on course. So $100 k turned over, gets them $3k that they have to re invest on the day, club gets money off grog and food, and a whole heap more people on course? No doubt you will pick holes in this suggestion
  16. Sadly too many over the years have thought like you, no initiative. Drinks are where the money is made, not the gambling, especially as many like myself bet mostly on aus sites.
  17. If you bring 300 people with you, that buy drinks, food etc, yep i would give you a rebate. Simple basic logic. Hell, most of these tracks stuggle to get 50 people on course. Have you seen what these guys are like, they love the social side of the game. Most clubs would love the profit from the grog, forget about the rebate. Get these guys on course
  18. Well i think clubs do look after them. Their point is, they should also get rebates.
  19. Crazy statement. These guys generate huge turnover on course, so if they keep winning the club profits more. If they keep winning, clubs will want them to turn up. If they win, obviously some are losing, probably thru tab, but this wont affect the club will it.
  20. They are supporting racing clubs, by investing on course, club recieve an extra cut that they would not if bets placed on tab
  21. From what i have seen, its pretty well run. Look at these Facebook posts. Punters seem very happy, so good on them.
  22. So is rebate from tab or club? I think fairly reasonable request, if they are bringing many to course, getting people to spend on drinks and food, and increasing on course turnover by huge amounts, why not. Just shows what a couple of guys can do with an idea, sadly tab marketing could not have thought of something like this in the last 20 yesrs!
  23. According to article in The Informant, seems they want a % rebate from bets they generate on course? What do you reckon?
  24. Epic fail for Garry Woodham, so called customer manager? Where was he when app first came out, and customers could not make contact with issues??? Come on, let us know Gazza?
  25. Oh well, who is next to go. That guy Andy, he is one scary dude! And as for their titles, what a joke!
