Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
What you see is Tabcorp’s opening market for race 7 at Flemington on Saturday afternoon. Do the numbers. The TAB is betting 199%. What a disgrace. Punters can’t win at those odds. Why does anyone still bet with this mob at all?
It’s easy to see why Gillon McLachlan chose the Tabcorp CEO role over the Chairman’s job at Racing Victoria. Just take a look at the basic terms of his contract. LENGTH OF CONTRACT Unlimited. Gil has scored a never-ending gobstopper of a contract, a job for life with no fixed term. This is highly unusual […]
So after months of being regarded as a certainty to take up the Chairmans role at Racing Victoria. all of sudden Gillon McLachlan is no longer a candidate, because now he is taking up the job of CEO at Tabcorp. Is long tall Gilly mad? Who in their right mind would want to be the […]
What a great new ad for the NZ TAB. They’ve appropriated our wedding song for the purpose too. My mum always said I was cool.

Tabcorp – the owner/operator of the TAB – would have you believe that it leads the field when it comes to responsible gambling. It shows the bet responsibly message on all its ads, it has pamphlets in all its agencies and signs on all the walls, and it operates a program allowing its customers to […]
There are all sorts of rumours floating around about what the Australian race wagering landscape might look like in two years time, but it is hard to get a straight bead on it because no-one who knows anything will talk about it, almost certainly for commercial and/or regulatory reasons. So we will take a non-informed […]
The near 3 per cent fall in Tabcorp’s share price on Friday following the shock resignation of chief executive Adam Rytenskild is evidence the gambling giant’s problems run much deeper than a dodgy culture. The next CEO will inherit a company that is widely seen as the gaming sector’s legacy laggard, the long-term incumbent that has struggled […]
