I'll comdense all the drivel into one word F$%K#D.
The picture on the first page typifies their attitude, Only interested in their
Affluent members and Owners by the look of it.
For every one of them, there are Dozens of bread and butter punters and
participents in the industry whose voice is continually ignored.

Not much in there that hasnt been "leaked" out, well kept secret they were gonna get rid of balak and strath...
... agree with some things in there tho, but i think the biggest worry they have is to encourage younger people to get invovled in the industry.. eg owning horses, not just getting pissed at the track 1 a year... can see how clubs like port augusta, Mount gambier, and even port lincoln can survive with such small prize money??? they said they want Lincoln to have 5 more meets a year? they couldnt even have full fields on the tuesday of there cup carnival if i remember correctly?

The Balak and Strath presidents are spewing and how vowed to fight the report.....
Will this rip apart SA racing? will we go to court?
Port Lincoln cant handle 5 more meets with the lack of horses.....their first few and last meetings of each season only just stand up now!!!!
Port Aug will go.... that is one thing I know!!!
Gawler and Balak to combine
How much did this report cost to do?
Will the recomendations happen?
