Brendons first Court appearance will see the charges laid. I expect Brendons lawyer will seek a remand without plea to consider the charges. Their next appearance they will be expected to plea, but I bet dollars to donuts a further excuse will be found for a further remand. This will see a plea sometime later this year which will be not guilty. A date will then have to be found for a defended hearing, this will be sometime in the first half of 2020. If found guilty, then an appeal will go in and may be heard sometime in the second half of 2020. If that fails, then expect an appeal to the Supreme Court, and that will take it to 2021 and beyond. I may be entirely wrong, but thats how I see this panning out. What's happened in this sorry saga ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All overtaken by other scandals and advents, the latest being the Thrilling Billy saga where you nominate dogs that do not exist to stack up a field and then scratch them. Just another day in the sleazy world of Greyhound racing. Good old Brendons case will follow the same tried and tested method of the Lisa Cropp case. Just my opinion.

No wont be following lisa cropper as this is the courts But it will be appealed and appealed so that part will be the same he has a court date before Christmas So maybe this time next year will have a result and cole will be gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freda Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Meantime....sad business. I've just added a rehomed grey to my own canine family, he's such a lovely kind dog....I hadn't really taken much notice of the greyhound world until now, and I'm appalled at the apparent goings-on in the industry. Having said that, the GAP programme seems to work well and is ( apparently) funded by GRNZ...which is more than the galloping lot can manage.

Yes, and news coming out of Australia this morning does not bode well for galloping here. And right on the spring carnivals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
