Greyhound racing ban: Industry resigned to its fate as end is in sight

Grace Patel2026-07-22T17:09:00.000Z

about bloody time. this 'sport' has been a grim death march for dogs for years, surprised it took this long

Hana Stewart2026-07-22T18:45:00.000Z

great. another industry gone. what about all the workers and trainers? typical government, no plan for the people affected, just a ban and a pat on the back

Ella Thompson2026-07-22T18:55:00.000Z

exactly, if they cared they'd have fixed it years ago. zero sympathy

Isla Cooper2026-07-22T19:40:00.000Z

lol cope. industry had decades to sort itself out. they chose profits over welfare, now they pay the price.

Finn Walker2026-07-22T19:00:00.000Z

honestly sad to see it go but the welfare issues were undeniable. hope the dogs find good homes

Luca Reid2026-07-22T19:09:00.000Z

rip greyhounds, used to love a night at the track with me dad. but yeah, the treatment was shocking. mixed feelings.

Quinn Murphy2026-07-22T19:29:00.000Z

not a greyhound fan but this feels like the nanny state meddling again. let people make their own choices ffs

Luca Reid2026-07-22T19:51:00.000Z

nah the nanny state argument is weak. this is animal cruelty, not a lifestyle choice. get a grip

Hana Stewart2026-07-22T19:52:00.000Z

typical, 'nanny state' from someone who's never had to put food on the table in a dying town. easy to say when it's not your job.

Ella Thompson2026-07-22T19:52:00.000Z

heard the dogs are basically kept in tiny crates. saw a doco once. disgusting. good riddance

Quinn Murphy2026-07-22T20:34:00.000Z

alright fair point about the crates, that is pretty bad. still feels like the government could've done more for the workers

Grace Patel2026-07-22T20:04:00.000Z

bet the aussies are laughing at us banning it while they still run their industry. but we're better than that

Finn Walker2026-07-22T20:26:00.000Z

yeah aussies will be next i reckon. it's a dying sport worldwide

Hana Stewart2026-07-22T20:10:00.000Z

nanny state? more like common decency. the industry had years to clean up and didn't. they dug their own grave.
