I hear you, and unfortunately it is such a small minority that have given greyhounds such a bad wrap. They were not dealt with by the industry, and continued to thrive. There are many awesome people in the industry that just love their dogs, they are the ones I feel for. The bad buggers know who they are, and you can thank them and an ineffective GRNZ for its demise. -

I agree. I think you will need a residential address and bank account in the country you are betting and use a VPN from that country. They may also make it illegal with severe penalties if you get caught doing that. Have to wait till we see the bill but I expect I may have to give up betting on NZ racing if not altogether. -

Well the minority succeeded against the Dogs and I have little doubt horse racing their next target We have to be 2 steps ahead of them. GRNZ lacked the leadership to control their industry and a banning was inevitable, with an air of self destruction -

I could be wrong on this but I don't think a VPN will suffice. Won't the offshore agencies just close any accounts that have NZ addresses? -
You seem surprised Mikenz is usually well off the mark with his posts. -
Where will Entain NZ profits go to Nick Roberts??- More NZTAB nonsense. Besides anyone can get a VPN and circumvent geo blocking

Mike's questions are usually unreasonable and at times bordering on stupid. As i said go back and look at his previous posts , they substantiate my position on him

Greyhounds make fantastic pets, calm, laid back, affectionate, my old bloke is feeling some aches and pains now ( he's twelve ) but still does acrobatics over the furniture when I get home from work! No idea what your daughter is referring to. Yes, some of these lovely dogs have been treated terribly, esp.by the bigger operations. My experience with some smaller ones is that some of the retired models shift from the kennels to the couch in front of the TV. The sad thing is that there won't be enough homes for all these dogs, the hypocritical SPCA is mouthing platitudes while destroying thousands of domestic dogs every year. Rehoming, they don't do very much, that seems to be left to numerous volunteers who do their best, but again, many lovely dogs just miss out. Councils need to be more vigilant about unlicensing breeders, cracking down on the puppy mills, etc, and try and reduce the sad outcomes. -
Wow.......this has to be a concern for the horse codes😵 Now that the animal rights pricks have had a win........what's next? Surely we will not be pushed about by the minority of people who dislike horse racing? -
You mean like this - Would you take a refugee into your home? -
They are a beautiful breed, and need to run, but ultimately they've no show of rehoming the numbers suggested, it's sad but I feel many will disappear, and don't think any bill will save them, I feel its opened a major can of worms, could always drop them off to all those activists and do gooders, and let them home the dogs, but of course they wont want them, just happy to push their own barrow without looking at the bigger issue. -
Presumably the greyhound tracks will be sold off for residential redevelopment which will make someone somewhere some money. Who owns the tracks? -
Silver Lining: At least Trackside 1 Sunday Session wont be in such a hurry to cut from the finish of a gallop or harness race to get to Manukau and watch them walking to the start box.

I think yall find more so, its a popular decision on both sides of the voting curve. Generally speaking, racing, especially greyhounds isnt looked at favourably these day. -

They could do that now, if betting on competing overseas FO markets is made illegal. Huge cost saving and a very successful model in some other jurisdictions. They should have stuck with that in the first place imo and adjusted take-outs to make it competitive and attractive. -
That’s England Liz…Crufts is an institution and woe betide anyone who tries to part a Pom from his dog….
