Well, if there is a new site put up, I believe we should have to put our names on it.
Still have your views and opinions,but hopefully,more reasonable than the trash we're seeing on Racecafe.You might even get measured responses from Board or club committee members.

Gee Grahame do you think lotto would put in any money if they did not get time on TV?
Bev
They announced on Lotto tonight that 50% of all ticket sales for the coming week will be donated to the Christchurch Earthquake Fund. GOOD ON YOU LOTTO!

Wanganui club always calls for a club meeting to vote on rule changes, but there is very few who turn up. Remember, it then goes to the NZ AGM and all ten clubs have a vote on the way they have been instructed,by their members,(if they bothered to call a meeting).

If it''s 80% to breeder you will not sell any pups.
We have NZRS for $11k($1k for unplaced runners) which is split 50/50.Now if there are scr, that $1k is split with those left,none to the breeder.
On another thread people were talking about breeding and not selling because of the money that can be made from the NZRS. We now have OZs looking to breed here and they will be keeping the pups because of the NZRS.
Is it good for our industry?
Bev
What do people think of the idea, of breeders bonus money, being split 70% to the owner and 30% to the breeder?
At the moment, your 1st win over 400m, you get $800 being split 50/50.
The NZRS is also split 50/50,
and I have known people not to bother putting dogs in these races as they do not like the breeder to get such a large share,after selling.We want these races well supported,as this proportion should become another good incentive for buying Kiwi.

As the other thread was hijacked, I did not tell you that I was at the Meeting of clubs, and it was 6 dogs, not 5.
I also know that on Wednesday
the 19th, Wanganui had 2, 6 dog races, with 1 scr in each, making 5 dogs. The last race with 5 dogs had $14k on the win pool. So most people do not care if it's 5, or 8 dogs.The highest win pool on the day was $16k.

Through clout and a pinch of corruption, more likely,McDuff.
This law was solely for the identification of dogs.It has failed miserably, when this same authority, exempts a section that doesn't identify those dogs,yet penalises a smaller section, that has longstanding and proven identification.
So,we are back to the failures at Petone,are we not?

My goodness Phil,can't expect the Lab's owners next door to pay and not greyhounds?Why not? The same law exempts farm dogs.Have they proven those dogs dont bite?Give us your reasons why that farming lobby was successful with 90% of their licence holders not wanting it for their unbranded and probably unlicenced dogs while racing greyhounds,already ear branded, in case you didn't realise Phil.To save you writing time,I would say it had everything to do with our democratically elected reps not bothering to do anything much about it because some of them wanted it.
