mardigras Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Now this is funny from the other channel. At least 7 mil lost to the industry yesterday, 100 mil + down the gurgler and still no TAB today, it must impact on NZ as well, you earn coin from commingling and it's kaput, strong rumour China Virus chief, not the BS TABCORP are spruiking re a power outage.......more to come. NZ does not earn any 'coin' from commingling. They pay 'coin' for commingling. Talk about fake news. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curious Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 They earn coin from Oz betting on NZ events that are commingled don't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They earn that irrespective of commingling don't they? So the only loss from Oz betting isn't due to commingling, it would be due to no operational Oz TAB.

Commingled or not is irrelevant but certainly cost NZ racing revenue because of the loss of Oz betting on NZ events.

For sure, however bookies may have taken up some of the 'missing' and a fair number have agreed to pay race field type fees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 Do you know who has agreed to pay race field fees and how much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for amount, I don't know - but NZ TAB would be negotiating that, and I'd expect it to be somewhere in line with what happens in the various Australian states.
