  1. Each way - all day Both Moroney runners Get on
  2. All right......I'll play ! Warren ???????
  3. This is becoming "The Biggest Dick" competition. There is a lot of howling eminating from across the road this morning.......surely heart, stress and boner medication will be needed at some point during the day. A butcher named Scoob thinks he’s neat; That women just fall at his feet. But he found out from Jill That without his blue pill, There’s no market for Scoob's boneless meat.
  4. Well, well. what have we got here? Some concerned folk with purpose. Hullo NZ Trainers Assn.........anybody there?????? Queensland trainers have put up a united front, refusing to nominate horses for Doomben ahead of a proposed strike. The alliance representing trainers, jockeys, owners and breeders is protesting the state government decision not to allocate any money from the Point Of Consumption tax distribution to increased prize money. The alliance plans to strike on Saturday, Cox Plate day, and again on Melbourne Cup day, November 6, saying Queensland is being left behind while NSW and Victoria surge ahead. The sole nomination for Saturday's Doomben meeting is from NSW trainer Jarrod Austin. Leading trainers Steve O'Dea and Toby Edmonds have entered horses for Friday night's Canterbury meeting while Robert Heathcote and Chris Munce have nominated horses at Randwick on Saturday. The alliance renewed the strike threat last week after an unsuccessful meeting with treasurer Jackie Trad and Racing Minister Stirling Hinchliffe. "Prize money is our wages. Ten years ago our people were receiving 75 per cent of what NSW racing delivered in prize money and now Queensland sits at 45 per cent and as all the other states embrace this new betting tax, this gap will only widen further," it said in a statement. "While this industrial action is certainly not the industry participants' preferred response, the government's lack of understanding of the importance of the current situation in Queensland, leaves us with no alternative." Racing NSW and Aquis Farm have joined to announce a minimum payment of $1000 for all starters not finishing in the first 10 at Canterbury on Friday and Randwick on Saturday to assist Queensland trainers. Racing NSW says the initiative also applies to NSW-trained horses. The payments are in addition to the Australian Turf Club's $500 travel rebates for country and interstate trainers who have at least one horse racing on Friday night and another in Sydney the following day.
  5. Morning T man. I can't help noticing you are doing a VENUS on this topic. No doubt you have had your morning walk down on the beach with the Princess and your brain is at it's most alert for the day..........so can I make a suggestion.... Breath, that's it, take a big deep breath........... Try it agin. That's it mate.....fells good dunnit. And again.........no,no, no........don't talk........just breath. Good man T It's a great day to be alive mate. You show that Princess of yours all the love you have for her and have be happy mate. And please mate, stay away from servos and cig lighters. And don't go tripping to Turkey and fall on chainsaws either. Love ya like a brother mate.
  6. Chief, thinking about it, I'm out.
  7. Chief, you are going to be removing a heap of posts if the Hamster is Guspull of Judistu.
  8. "What you're talking about with Ardern is a completely different ballgame. Anyone who says they are the same levels of personal abuse is displaying at the very least, a high level of bias. What's been directed at Ardern has been relentless. It's completely bereft of any respect whatsoever and is very personal. It's also unprecedented on this scale in NZ Politics." Its been deserved and to be fair, mild. Everything you have written has BIAS ALL OVER IT. You must be related. She is a hypocrite, a true dirtbag of communist proportions, shallow, to the point of flaunting her so called principles of poverty, happy to be manipulated and quite frankly, just plain dumb. She is an embarrassment to politics, but hey Gavin, a media star in the girlie magazines. And as for the powder sniffing First Lady, well there are enough credible people who know more than both you and I do on that. The fact that she and her string pullers had to manipulate the Police to deny anything was pathetic. It reinforced what was already common knowledge. The guy has history. You have a gift for persuasion Gavin, but not for pulling the wool.
  9. If I recall correctly, the Hamster has 65 degrees from Otago University covering a diverse range of subjects, such as an MBE in The Unethical Hacking of David Bain's Cardigan to a Social Sciences BA for his brilliant work in Ferrits in For Bury, My Early Upbringing.
  10. I am Wally. In fact I got a decent whack on yesterday with our antipodean cousins at slightly longer odds than are currently available. Having an odds on runner in the field does help. If she is anywhere near 100% recovered and ready, she wins this.
  11. I'll have one final place go on I'm Bronson
  12. I could give you at least a thousand reasons to back a horse in the last at Rotovegas today .........but there is no need to really.
  13. I've been looking at that photo for 12 hours T, and I'm buggered if I can see her racquet. Is it buried in the sand maybe?
  14. Gav, love to sit down and have a chat at the track one day. I disagree with you on nearly every point you made. We obviously have different backgrounds and upbringings on why that it. Make for an interesting discussion. Cheers
  15. I have a thought I would relay:
  16. My absolute pleasure Tonk. There is of course that unwritten rule, that should, God forbid, one of my thoughts actually eventually, return a dividend, by some remote and seemingly remote chance, then anyone who profits from said thought, pays the Piper, so to speak. Are you getting my drift Tonk? No. Let me spell it out then for you. I very occasionally get a result but not often. When I do you look after me, nudge nudge wink wink. But I repeat............beware. You may go broke. In fact, this book was written about my punting exploits.
  17. Melbourne Wednesday 4 horse all up fixed odds multi place - any 2 and any 3 High Ratio High Dude Stryke Rock Wayanka
  18. I actually saw T down at his favourite Kohi beach this morning. There was quite a crowd observing his antics.
  19. My thoughts exactly. During my divorce, my wife and I agreed to split the house. I got the outside.
  20. I'd like to get my hands on THAT Diceman. Mouthy bugger he is. Nothing like me.
  21. T..........bloody good to see your knee is mending so well. All the best buddy. Hang in there.
  22. What a guy you are Mr C. You got me big time with your positividdy. Here I was feeling down in the dumps, and you've lifted me with those truly uplifting inspirational words. I'm so positividdy positive after reading that, I gunna give it annuver go. You da man C .you da man.
  23. Settle Wal. You are only as good as you're last winner ? Funny enough I was only reading this morning about a book for blokes like me. Might have to grab a copy. May I quote....... "Go buy a book called The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A Fuck ...by Mark Manson.....read it three times....you’ll be a far better person for it, and every time you catch yourself thinking you’re famous, important, or an elite human being, read it again."
  24. It's the second leg of my multi Wal. Love the Danehill -Stravinsky cross - looks like the distance will suit - trainers are good - jock goes ok - only neg is the draw but we might get lucky. Ripper, bonza, beauty bottler. Money for nothing and our chips are free.
