jimbob 92 Report post Posted January 24, 2021 What the hell are the stipes doing these days, I've never seen so many cheating dogs running around Also looks like most of the dogs are poorly broken in as well Jump like a goat, spend half the race looking for open spaces and run wide on the bends Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everton 150 Report post Posted January 27, 2021 Just like this forums attendance Jimbob, everyone is giving up on greyhound racing, including the stipes. I feel for the true enthusiasts who try hard but are on a hiding to nothing because everything is swept under the carpet and those few that have a grip on everything including the purse strings have created monopolies, there is no such thing as a level playing field. I don't bet at all at Wanganui or Palmy anymore, it's a lottery and those involved that have any influence know it. Even the race previews and commentaries are so boring, very very vanilla. Suits those in the know, but does absolutely nothing to attract new people to the sport .. what chance do they have ?? .. happy 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what is the difference with this and insider trading on the share market. so at the end of the day it is a fishy sport On 1/28/2021 at 2:16 AM, Everton said: Just like this forums attendance Jimbob, everyone is giving up on greyhound racing, including the stipes.
