I would normally play the Vaal card today, but if I cannot atleast get Tellytrack audio I will give it a skip. No point in playing if you have to guess when they are off and phone in. (td)

What about the payouts are they not to small compared to Lottos Soccer 6 etc. ? The small man needs a dream
and unfortunately they feel jockeys can still determine the outcome?
