In May 2026, Josh Willie said greyhound racing can "stand on its own two feet" from 2029.
When asked at the Greyhound Committee about the continuation of funding, Luke Gatehouse from Greyhounds Tasmania was confident Labor was going to back them in.
Dean Winter sat there and said nothing.
Silence is telling.
Mr Winter has clearly promised the greyhound industry financial assistance beyond 2029.
Mr Willie has lost total control of Mr Winter and his party room.
What is it?
Their own two feet by 2029? Or is Mr Willie powerless to stop Mr Winter from bankrolling greyhound racing.
