That's racing Shane I'm sure it's happened to many others on here with dogs in the past Not all dogs run the bends like Carl Lewis mate That's racing take the good with the bad n the bad with the good I'm sure she will bounce back n has many wins in front of her It's what's n should have are just that
Well said Wayne,that's racing alright.Correct again,it has happened to countless others..Stupid Decisions.Ww just shrug our shoulders and say,"That's racing". Just a shame we have a Ver on course,who obviously can't be serious when he finds my dog sore in her in a muscle,he doesn't even know the name of,then proceeds to say that's why she fell going around the corner,cause she was sore in the spot he found,after she fell,like WTF you have to be kidding me,but Hey that's racing,lol..If dumb ass ideas like that were vanished,we wouldn't have to keep saying,"That's racing".

I appreciate your passion and the dog turned its head no offence towards other dogs connections.

Cheers Mark.Again,I'm not having a chop at connections! I'm having a Massive Chop at Officials running our game these days.Like how can a on course vet say she fell,cause she was sore in a muscle,he didn't know the name of,after she fell,he found an apparent sore spot,then blame the sore spot for her falling! That is nothing short of a joke!

Ian everything has evolved into social media these days. To keep up with the times and more importantly in the interest of being transparent I don't think it unreasonable these issues be discussed by both sides in a public forum.
State your case and state your reasons. As soon as it becomes an emotional argument bail out and don't go on with it, as both sides wld've stated their cases anyway for all to see.
Wld that not be a reasonable way to go about things for the best interests of the sport ?
Sorry Shane, can't agree with you. Your dog is not yet running hard through the corner ( same as her previous run). Inexperienced dogs do this. Sometimes just better to bite down a bit harder! Just a case of inexperience both dogs. One " driving", one not. Cheers

What a joke,one driving,one not.The 4 was driving harder,but being inexperienced or whatever the reason,yeah it should of kept driving harder,keeping the same line,and went straight past my dog.Instead,it moved out,bumped my dog,then had a chop! And what,just because a Dog isn't driving through a corner hard enough, doe's that give another dog the right to have a chop at it? You can't include my dog for doing anything wrong,it was staying on its own line,the 4 Dog didn't,simple as that!

Maybe if the topic wasn't named "Albion Pk 3/6/22 are Stewards Blind or Incompetent" that might be true.

Maybe the Author of the Title purposely did it like that to spark attention,like it has,your comments included! Anyways,I thought I was being Nice! Go back and read my Titles back when they were trying to shut the Industry down.They were alot more then whatever that one was supposed to be.Had Cops knock on my Door, Lawyers letters from GRNSW,stuck it right up the Premier at the time,cause he deserved it,lol .Some of them didn't like my Titles way back then.I didn't change the Titles back then,and certainly not changing this one...I reckon my next one to stir something up might be,"Fernando Bale Biggest Dud Stud Dog of all time,lol..Hope you got a Sence of Humour.Cheers
Shane, I looked at the race many times. The 4 dog did nothing wrong. Yes he drifted off the bend and did bump your dog. It looks to me that the 4 dog is chasing the lure 100%, he moved out to pursue the lure, look how close the lure is to the dogs on the bend.

You should watch it a few more times.
Upon straightening the lure appeared to be a good 8 metres away from lead dog. The lure was difficult to see going around the bend and this is consistent with most if not all video recordings of races as the viewer / punter wants to see the dog not the lure. We as participants would like to see both

Yeah he did nothing wrong,apart from what you just admitted to,drifted off the track and bumped my Dog!! Look I'm not saying the 4 Dog,decided to go my Dog before it moved to the inside of her.Its moved to the inside, probably couldn't handle the banked corner,Albion pk is like a Bike Veledrome,which caused it to drift off and bump my Dog,and then had a chop at my Bitch.Either way,when a Vet tries to tell you she fell cause she was sore in a spot he found after she fell,is a load of Hogwash.Simple as that

I have moved on mate, doesn't mean I agree with your accessment of the race,lol..An yeah,that was part of my complaint,gotta be one of the most bewildering statements I've ever heard from a Vet.What ever happened to the days when we had Real Greyhound Vets on track,you know,Vets that actually had a history with the Breed.What have we got,Horse Vets attending Greyhound Meets,it's rediculos

The 4 dog may have slightly moved it's head when your dog tripped on it's feet but it was accelerating so I think a body reaction - if it was going to chomp as you suggest it would have slowed up . Sorry that happened to your dog , but it looked like just green racing.

Follow up. Unfortunately it looks like Shane's dog Rapid Worthy hasn't raced again. The "suspected fighter" Runaway Babe has won her last 4 in a row and has never looked like fighting.
Follow up...Your a Dead Set Dick alright! First of all,my dog raced a few weeks ago at Capalaba,still coming back.Trainer hasn't been able to race much cause he has had to move to another Property in the last few weeks.. Second of all.Runaway Babe at her very next start after my bitch fell,crashed heavily into the field from an outside box,and Fell herself..Now she might of won 4 in a row.So how about getting your Facts straight first,and then don't try and embellish the story in your favour,otherwise you look,or sound stupid,as you do now! As stated by me before,I was over it,but you must lead a very boring life.Stick to talking about your favourite topic,wanking on about Fernando Bale..Don't know what your motive was for dragging that post back up,but best you get back in your box and try again another time,lol

I was concerned for both dogs and thought I'd do a follow up. Like I said previously I hoped she came back OK from that fall.
My apologies I should say, Rapid Worthy ran 20.86 running 5th at Capalaba a month ago. The trainer is moving kennels so she hasn't raced much apparently.
Runaway Babe after a terrible fall from box 8 (confirming our theory she raced greenly at her first start), ran a 5th and a brave 2nd. She has won her last 4 in a row as a short priced favourite. Including a 5th grade heat and final. Never looking like fighting.
Do you have questions about greyhound racing?
