Nathan,
The saga continues. Bulli Cup heats (all run in ordinary times).
Only one sectional per race - you guess which dog.
Continual muck-ups as they get into the turn - one fav spat out the back.
9-race meeting? Sign of the times I suppose.

Bruce are you seriously on drugs ? I dont care about the dog who came 5th 2nd or last The winner is the lamplighter and work it out for yourself pro gambler
All 3 heats for the cup got fair runs into corner and through the corner , with pindari not getting spat out the back ??? He didnt want to be there and shyde away to find space Not a collision at all Times .... have you got a dog that can give any of the winners windburn ?? No So shut up and respect the races for what they were , which was class and good racing and no injuries No ripped pads ???? Funny that ...... but you keep watching the clock nuff boy
You seriously are on drugs and your interpretation on what happens in all things in life is so twisted and bent its amazing you can hit the right keys to produce words ????
I wish no longer to communicate with you as there is no point I cant even wish everyone else the best in this department as that would be a waste to
Cheers

If you want sectionals for one dog per race then you are fine (but you may not be sure which dog it was).
If you want to meet the industry standard then you need sectionals for every dog. It is impossible to get a reliable reading of a dog's capabilities if you ignore the races where it does not lead or get recorded. That would be the same as publishing only its winning runs (which one of the pub touchscreens actually does).
For example, what was Pindari's sectional??? There is nothing to show in its career record. For such a prominent dog that's a serious omission.
Bulli (GBOTA) is substandard as to the results and the track layout, particularly the home turn.
Omission of the sectionals is a relatively new thing - when the club operated they were normally there.
I might add that GBOTA occasionally messes up the Wenty sectionals, too.

Watch the videos of races n make your own judgement on other dogs sectionals. You want everyone to do the work for you. Youre a punter who is lazy.

This attitude would be one reason why greyhound racing is often on the nose and is failing to achieve reasonable or any growth.
Anybody like power steering or would they like to return to the 1950s models? Or no aircon? Or 1950s feeds and medicines? Or no TABs? Or no credit/debit cards? Or move to Victoria where every single race offers full sectionals for all runners.

No. Youre a lazy punter / analyst. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Do your homework, stop whining and borrowing from other peoples work. If you spent the same amount of time on punting as you do on here, you might be a chance of winning. However, you are a writer so you must vent somewhere/ everywhere. Youre a teaser.
You stated that the sectionals for Wenty (they do them) are not accurate, but you check them anyway. If Bulli has problems why are you bothering whining about the track and sectionals. Sometimes, youre a sook.

the sections do come up at bulli but what is badly needed is the head on vision of the starts may be the gbota can address this and make it quicker than it took to put aircon in the bar and viewing area its only taken about 5 years.
