I remind those sitting on their hands where the Industry would be now if it wasn't for People Power with the threat of industry closure in NSW. People Power moved NSW Premier Mike Baird on. People Power can achieve the same result for less powerful people.
AND THAT'S WHY I WOULD SUGGEST ALL TO NOMINATE A DATE & PLACE, AND ALL TURNUP AND USE THEIR DESIRED TOOL (possibly a c@rc@$$) TO PROMOTE CHASE....as the current rules are failing the industry miserably.
What are the do-gooders going to do? Band everybody for 12 months and have no industry to go forward to fulfil contact agreements !!!
The ball is in our court if we make it. Just like the votes did in Orange. A seat the "Nationals" had held since World War II.

WOW!!! Steve you have given me belief they will find the Tasmanian Devil I was starting to think Fighters were a dying breed.
The Greyhound Industry needs Owner Trainers Breeders Forum in every state within a 2 week window Racing Ministers and Opposition Racing Ministers to be present- With Owner/Trainer/Breeder Representatives to meet afterwards to discuss outcomes. Skype or similar linkups would keep costs to a minimum. Sky Channel /Catching Pen and News /Media present in the outcomes link up Ideas please !!!

Trouble's been thick and winners thin. Comes in waves Mark, sometimes lucky, sometimes not. We just had a welcomed bit of rain. You?

Yes MG, I understand the highs/lows like most. I saw your name on Sky so I watched a couple of races after putting two and two together. The dog/bitch competed very well. I like a success story.
I had two slow ones a few months ago. I gave them back to owners. Great owners who are having success with another dog down the Riverina way. So, I dont have any atm, but looking for faster ones (like we all are).

Hope you get yourself a fast one...we all deserve one with the hours we put in and the crap we put up with.
"Success story"? More like 'One flew over the Cuckoo's nest.' Keep on keeping on...
