@JBevis97 @MattLs15 @racing_nsw Offshore markets. No Racing NSW tax.

@MattLs15 @racing_nsw That’s a lame take.

Racing NSW has directed all Wagering Operators to suspend betting immediately on the 2025 The TAB Everest until 9pm tonight. Racing NSW Stewards will conduct a confidential barrier draw this morning. The barrier draw will then be released publicly during a Racing NSW function that can be viewed from 8pm on Sky Thoroughbred Central

@miltrain The important thing is you know it’s Thursday & Night & Footy

Fox Footy just trolling us all at this point... #AFLTigersBlues

@TheShovel Disappointing to all who wanted more space for ads for the essentials of 2.5 tonne utes on our suburban streets, greasy burgers, deep-fried chickens and pledges of love and care from banks and insurers.

Anthony Albanese has denied he is under the thumb of the gambling industry, saying his watered-down reforms still have odds of 4-1 of working, or an enticing $12 when placed in a multi with Labor to win the next election

@grub1234 @ppargolfer Fair enough, he wasn’t going to drink the rest of his beer.

@ppargolfer Only time I have drunk on the course was after a playing partner died of a heart attack, did CPR on him but didn't help.

How often do you drink on the course? 🍻 A. Always B. Most of the time C. It's rare D. Never

@Ace_Previews @Betfair_Aus How do you figure your staking? Risking 1.5u @$13 Moutet to get to $2 in-play seems disproportionate to your other 3 bets of 1.75u @$1.83, 1 u @$1.73 and 1u @$1.90

Onto Week 2 we go @Betfair_Aus betfair.com.au/hub/sports/ten…

@asphotos Those Gunnamatta to Hobart flights have never been reliable.

Reports in from my Gunnamatta Beach Corespondent that hundreds of people are starting to get cold and angry with the no show! :) #aurorafail

@airesEO @AJamesMcCarthy @DavidBflower Nice shot to pick up the name tag

@Frestonia @sothegreatgame @MRowlandMP The cut and paste missed

@sothegreatgame @MRowlandMP They forgot to add the excuse. 'The Minister is unable to meet at this time due'. Not even a sentence when you do not add the ''insert excuse here''. Something like that going out from a Minister's Office is very poor indeed.

@allan_kiwi4 @TRBHorseRacing 118% is equivalent to a contest of 2 both priced at 1.69. Calculate as 100/59. Last 3 months 119% markets so now 1.68 both runners in a 2 horse race.

@TRBHorseRacing To a novice, what do those figures mean to me. 118% means what to a small punter investing $5 e/w.

🏇 The average Sydney & Melbourne Saturday race market percentages: *⃣ 2021 - Half 1 = 116.1% *⃣ 2021 - H2 = 116.4% *⃣ 2022 - H1 = 116.8% *⃣ 2022 - H2 = 117.9% *⃣ 2023 - H1 = 118.6% The 2023 figure of 118.6% doesn't paint the full picture: ▶️Jan to March = 118.1% ▶️Apr to June = 119.1% We are now in an era where 50% of Saturday Metro races in Sydney & Melbourne have an SP >119% Remember that more than ever now, the percentage decreases notably in the last few minutes of trading. Most of the trading time, it's a few points above these figures. Percentages are being driven up as wagering providers try to manage the impact of POC tax increases and race program restructuring to create more days where race field fee rules allow PRA's to charge higher rates. It doesn't matter that most punters may not be price sensitive. Simple maths says they will lose their money faster, becoming more prevalent if/when bonus bets/money-back incentives reduce. The result will mean players participate less often, and more become lost forever. As the impact continues to get washed out in reduced turnover, racing will play victim to various causes outside its control. It will almost certainly fail to acknowledge that its policy decisions over several years to consistently increase the cost of the game has played a significant role in reducing the activity of revenue-generating customers.

@wolfdenbetting Love this, a pet AFL peeve is most player profiles show only where they were recruited, often a club in the under 19 representative comp. Instead celebrate where they started and support grass roots football.

Comment your name and junior club below 👇 Best junior club name wins a Merch Pack! 🐺

@domran @Rory_Flanagan I think the point was those who took $1.65 would have ended up with $1.22

@Rory_Flanagan So you took $1.90 Cop a 26c deduction. End up with $1.40 and change. Market reset at $1.33 after scratching.

TAB are a disgrace. Mojo Star has been scratched for an hour now, they’ve winded the price in for Trueshan by 25c from $1.90 to $1.65, so that when they decide Mojo Star officially comes out of the market the price is borderline nonexistent after deductions. Criminal.

@wolfdenbetting Thought about showing a tour of my punting den but this sums it up

Tour of the Den. 🐺😜

@GGener8 @DanEddyBooks35 @essendonfc We didn’t expect an 18 team competition.

@DanEddyBooks35 @essendonfc At least in 2022 we have maintained the traditional postal address of Box 17. One constant through so much other change.

How @essendonfc recruited coaching applicants in 1967, via a tiny ad in The Sun 🗞 Then, we just re-hired the same coach (John Coleman) anyway! ❤️🖤 #GoDons

If 2 more Essendon directors resign that makes a majority of the board that disagreed with the direction of the board.

@torkymonkey @essendonfc You seem unfamiliar with 'couldn't organise a beer in a brewery'

Hey @essendonfc, can you provide a link for where we can buy Ben Rutten a beer? Because he bloody deserves one.

Since 2004 only one premiership has been won by a club with a coach who had AFL senior coaching experience when they were appointed, Malthouse in 2010. This year the top 8 teams have coaches in their first senior role. But the @essendonfc board know better.

@braddavo 84,000 Essendon members have the same hope. Including the hope to be only a casual AFL fan.

Only a casual AFL fan these days but gee I hope Ben Rutten gets another head coaching gig sometime. The way he has handled himself this last week has been first class

@J_Walter23 Most corporate bookies can't believe believe you're allowed to spend $50 at Woolies and buy the specials.

Do you get a Free Corporate Bookmakers Licence when you spend over $50 at Woolies these days or something?

Clarkson wants to bring his own list manager but Essendon are refusing to move on Dodoro.

@essendonfc The tide is out so that 'line in the sand' could last 6 hours. Or until the next shower.

The Essendon Football Club has released the following statement.
