Rules For Some

I think the industry will probably be given another year to continue to improve. But it really depends on what cabinet thinks.

You're delusional. Trials are the most important aspect for getting a dog fit. Sounding less and less like a trainer imo. Especially when you are defending a man with a proven bad record

Track was in a bad state today. probably be lucky to be racing Thursday as well. What happens when you get ex clowns from NSW that ruined tracks over there to come here https://australianracinggreyhound.com/tag/bill-wilson/

straight racing is a nice niche but to say it's a great spectacular is not true at all. turnover at straigh tracks in aus is generally poor. idk who this person is saying it isnt

It is the end of an era I guess. Many of us who grew up watching the dogs the past 30 years would be use to Trevor Wilkes and Peter Early commentating.

Been told through the grape vine. Wont give names yet as they arent supposed to be out. Slack rib probably leaked

Thoroubreds should be on trackside 2. Dying industry. No one watches nz thouroughnreds anymore. So boring

They cant even get the results and records on their own site correct lol.

Another wonderful display on tv 3 news of a squeeky clean industry. So glad that the participants and people running the sports heads arent all the sand

Rumour is he said something off putting about Adcock recently and lost of his dogs as a result. Wont be winning much more races with those dogs. Ive been told hes an all round rude person anywho. Especially when they get beaten

https://fasttrack.grv.org.au unironically has better record keeping of nz litters than grnz and its a victorian based association

Thats like asking why are all our race replays available at tab.com.au but the nz tab still hasnt worked out a way to do it

People in the industry laugh at me when j say the industries time is numbered if we fail to deal with the outstanding issues still at large but here we are, given 1 year to tidy up the industry which im doubtful of when it has made little progress in 10 yrs.

They failed the industry. The numbers in the report they provided were botched aswell. One of their stats says 0 dogs were brought into NZ for breeding purposes in the last 2 years. I am connected to two bitches that were brought in in the last year. Fucken shambles. Than they think "we are rehoming 1 dog per litter whelped" is a good statistic. What a joke. I am glad i no longer rely on the industry to survive because its being run into the ground

The industry needs to take a look at itself and question whether its really possible for the industry to continue

Its too little to late. Most people in the industry are as naive as grnz so im not surprised this is the end result Everytime i make a suggestion regarding any issue, people either at the track or on here push back and say nothing needs to change and that there isnt a problem or its a problem to big to solve. Its been clear since 2013 that this industry will struggle to reach 2023 and it very well may not with the current direction its going in. Regardless of stats, greyhound racing in new zealand has a poor standing in the publics eye and i cant see anything changing in a year that grnz couldnt have started changing 10 years ago

Grnz couldnt even provide correct numbers.

Once again grnz has shown its incompetent and cant even get its tracking of racing numbers right. The end is nigh for this sport unfortunately

How are the numbers on our side? Out of 3000 racing dogs a year, only 800 are rehomed. Great odds

Palliser isnt paid to do it though... she clearly isnt very good at it yet. She may improve in the future. Who knows.

Easier for trainers to train sprinters than it is to train 500m+ dogs. It's the sad reality of racing in NZ today

These have to be two of weakest Silver Collar heats I have seen for a very long time. Would barely get out of bed for this years event

Than I dont see an issue if the trainers had the choice to race or not

Cant trainers scratch on the 100km rule?
