@DustinSpriggs4 @ffpunting He was very kind in the straight. Race was gone but he put in minimal effort to 'obtain the best position'. Undoubtedly should have finished closer.

@ffpunting 😂😂😂 that’s a wild coping mechanism finished 4.7L off the winner. You could maybe say bad luck and he should’ve finished closer but I don’t know what you expect him to do aside from jumping off his and carrying 2 of the three inside him out of the way

If you want a clear indicator of a frustrated long-term losing punter, look no further than the abuse of champion jockey Mark Zahra for his rides on known get back horses Jimmysstar and Planet Red. The latter a slightly different story having to toss up between sitting 4/5 wide w/o cover on-speed or going back. Time would be better spent understanding form and pricing in the risks with those types.

@save_greyhounds David doesn't speak for me nor the vast majority. Embarrassing from someone clutching for relevance.

Former Tas state premier is ashamed of involvement in greyhound racing - and even more ashamed of Labor’s current pro-racing stance. In his editorial, David Bartlett says it's wrong that "profitability determines an animal's future" and regrets his part in a racing syndicate.

@_TheSuper7_ @AliceTalksFooty What a crock. All that's well & good down the road but those decisions are inexplicable from that game. No football fan should be happy seeing that regardless of who you support.

Are you complaining about refs Alice🤷‍♂️ How are you going to cope when there will be more refereeing decisions next year when you are expected to challenge in 4 competitions at once. Maybe take some accountantability for the lack of quality in your squad and apply context to the circumstances that have allowed you to be 3rd this season

Full time review: - Robbed of a clear penalty on Amad before Bournemouth goal. VAR stinker. - Cunha and Lammens played very well. - Sesko needs to start over playing Mbeumo out of position. - Maguire stupid at the end. - We played some good football at times but not good enough across the 90, and the ref had a howler. - I will take a draw. - Off day for Casemiro today. - Need more from our fullbacks going forward. - Amad looks low on confidence when playing, need him back in form. - Where did 9 mins of extra time come from. Should of been 2-0 up if VAR did it's job. Robbery from VAR but a draw away at Bournemouth is not an awful result all in all. Just hope rivals drop points.

@AliceTalksFooty "Amad looks low on confidence" Actually from about 20 mins in he looked lazy and petulant. Surprised he didn't get hooked at 1/2 time.

@RockliffTeam So a you're now posting just Joe public when they agree with you? After all this bloke is long gone from any relevance .... not to mention his opinion bares no more weight than any other person.

In an incredible public rebuke, former Labor Premier David Bartlett has decreed that the time for greyhound racing in Tasmania is done. premier.tas.gov.au/latest-news/20…

@RobbieGrey2 @lisanandy @humaneworldorg @humaneleagueuk @HaveringDaily @humaneworlduk @GreyhoundWales @APDAWG1 @ban_greyhracing @Pablolouis9 @humaneworldnews If that's what you're holding up, sit down and let the adults discuss.

And they wonder why we want to see an end to racing.. Love to race? Really? And the handlers… Care about the dogs? Clearly all about money.. The dogs are cannon fodder and part of an uncaring industry. @lisanandy #animalabuse

@Kon__K The irony of Kon screeching about division whilst constantly spewing divisive speech.

What #OneNation actually stand for, as South Australians hold their elections today.

@nv__97 @DaleJohnsonBBC I suspect if the goal hadn't gone in, they would have gone back but didn't want to chalk off a goal. Despite that being the correct thing to do.

@DaleJohnsonBBC Amad one is as clear a foul as you can get,ref doesn't give it because he already gave one but how can VAR look at it and think it's not clear and obvious

On Amad and Evanilson penalty situations. Both might or might not have been penalties. They are subjective, in the grey zone. So on-field decision stands. VAR's role is not, and ever has been, to create consistency of decision making. Each is judged individually. #BOUMUN

@FreeToucanSam @R_o_M @DaleJohnsonBBC It can only be for engagement. No other reason for spouting such a delusional view.

@R_o_M @DaleJohnsonBBC It’s hard to understand the Dale’s of the world. Do they not get that this nonsense damages the league they presumably care about? Calling out these failures should be a basic part of his job.

@DaleJohnsonBBC @shihonia99 You've just lost any relevance in this discussion with that dribble.

@shihonia99 That's not true.

@AliceTalksFooty Clear foul, 2 hands to the chest not even attempting to play the ball. I’m sure if they don’t score VAR get involved, which makes it a mockery. Worse that HM gets red for less 🤷which is essentially the same foul.

That’s a penalty on Amad 100%%

@larissawaters Or the government could just reduce a % of the fuel excise. Hits every part of the economy. Workers, tradies, transport, farmers - everything.

Making public transport free, for as long as this crisis goes on for, must be on the table at National Cabinet today. This would be immediate cost-of-living relief, and take the pressure off fuel supplies. Billionaires took us to war, and the rest of us are paying for it.

@CagesFree Absolute zero truth in what you've said. No facts to back up NZ or Tassie. Tasmania is a desperate pollie who's done a back room deal for support down the road from the Greens - the last consideration was the dogs. Terrible take to hold this up as some sort of welfare issue.

All the welfare concerns that have prompted the bans in Scotland, Wales, New Zealand & Tasmania, the track deaths, the injuries, the doping exist in this country #Ireland #Greyhound racing abuse #taxpayers dublinpeople.com/news/sport/art…

@grumpyoldfool62 Quality response that 🤡 #truthhurts

@OneTheRed Oh do fuck off, numpty.

The hide of Gnat Barf 🤮👇, telling Jim Chalmers, in an interview, on Ch 7’s “Shitrise” program on Wednesday morning, that “Every man & his dog, is saying the government is spending too much.” Is more than a little GALLING! Considering the GRIFTS & BRIBES during the LNP years 😡

@NeilForPoole Pushing? They aren't remote control you moron. You people don't even understand what you are trying to ban. #overreach

Great news that greyhound racing will be banned in Wales! Pushing dogs to their limits for entertainment and profit leaves many with life‑changing injuries - and too often an early death. Westminster should follow suit and call the last lap on greyhound racing.

@KeithDa28329015 @GREY2KUSA Stop it, you are raining on their parade with reality. How will they solicit money if people find out they are celebrating closing something that doesn’t exist 🤣

@GREY2KUSA 1 greyhound track in Wales,0 in Scotland great victory isn't it

BREAKING NEWS!! Two UK countries just outlawed dog racing in 2 days! These are BIG WINS for greyhounds everywhere! 🎉🐾 On Tuesday, Wales became the first UK country to prohibit dog racing. Just one day later, Scotland followed by outlawing greyhound racing too. Momentum is building. These stunning victories signal momentum for a full prohibition on dog racing across the entire United Kingdom and around the world!

@nicolamacdona38 Only a simpleton would celebrate banning something that didn’t exist. I thought the Scottish were relatively bright, seems not.

It's great news that Scotland and Wales have banned greyhound racing. However Scottish greyhound racers had already started to come to England to race. We need to ban greyhound racing in ENGLAND for the ban to be affective.

@Nelly64 @sydney_ev @LiberalAus @AlboMP Defending the indefensible. What it stands for is a gov who simply can’t be trusted. Oh FYI, it was $275 “cheaper” which is a whole more now considering the massive increases we’ve seen.

@OneTheRed @sydney_ev @LiberalAus @AlboMP Is $275 a year that big a deal? It’s a few bucks a week. I doubt that was going to be life changing to anyone.

Remember the 9 years of @LiberalAus telling Australians how bad #EV were? We could have had far more EVs on the roads by now, not using petrol and diesel which means there would be more to go around and less demand and we would last longer before running out. #auspol

@CaroDiRusso But we don’t have a shortage, Bowen and the PM have said it. Remind me why we now need a task force 🤷

Another bureaucrat to head a new taskforce. I'm sure that'll fix it. 🙄 In reality, it's just another example of this Labor govt pretending to fix a problem by palming it off to someone else so they can distance themselves from accountability. #auspol

@save_greyhounds Such a landmark 😂 celebrating the banning of something that doesn’t exist. What’s next? Illegal to farm unicorns? 🤡

Two countries ban greyhound racing in 24 hours! Scottish SPCA described vote as “landmark win for animal welfare". bit.ly/3PdHJBL Welsh Government says it voted to protect "greyhounds in Wales from the harms of racing." Momentum grows for global end to greyhound racing.
