That Girl

Agreed. Shame we cant get a Messara report done on this saga. On ALL the cheating,corruption, live killing, cover ups etc in this industry! Too late now, such a report would probably end the industry and take down all the innocent hobbist's etc with it. Needed to be tidied up years ago! ?when people (including myself) were coming forward!! Sad.

Can someone explain who nominated these people? Sorry, I'm not a LP. Was it all LP's? And the J McInerney 'love our dogs' is an especially bad look given the timing #awkward.

He's been a hard man to track down since a) his trainers 'alleged' animal cruelty exposè. And b) his resignation from Chairman position. Wont answer his phone, spending a lot of time overseas? Hmm Talk about hit and run, I agree with the above sentiment. He has pulled one hell of a swifty on the good people in this industry.

Oh so he is! Thanks Barry. Will Gordon and other Kiwis there too! Look forward to it! As long as A Ku comes back I'm happy!

Does anyone know the whereabouts of A Kuru? Not at Wanganui today? I was looking for him to wrap up the Jumps Jockey Challenge today but he can't do that from the couch! Hope he's OK? Haven't been able to watch Trackside to find out. Thanks.

You raise a good point, the time for that will be in court (if we ever get there). And there's more you can add to that list, dozens of people have worked for Cole that still work in this industry, will they come forward?? One such young lady just landed a job with Trackside, has she made a statement of truth to the SPCA?? Doubt it. I understand it is a concern of SPCA that come time to lay charges, some witnesses will drop balls and fail to come forward and state the truth in court, or withdraw their statements due to fear of retribution from Cole, or the wider industry, I know of one such witness who may be required as a witness in court but is conflicted about what to do. What would you do?? The industry can't afford for some of this Cole shit to hit the media, but on the flip side the battlers and the trainers not doing illegal things need some justice. I've advised them telling the truth is the right thing to do.

How lucky is greyhound racing that this story didn't blow up completely? When I first saw it I thought shit this is bad and the media will love it!

Honestly Honestly I dont know if you want to bother. Yankiwi has been saying for a while no new members. But as you say every day theres a new user name there, real mature, witty usernames like 'festered asshole', 'haemorrhoid', 'too old for sex', WTF, FFS, 'drugged', 'sick of it'. Just to name a few that I've seen, I dont bother anymore.

Could make a movie about this Amazing Chase series I reakon, firstly the whole Pinny Mack saga from 'court case' to last chance trial, then exact same time in trial, drawn out of a hat then stumbles out of the boxes. (Which was a shame, was cheering for PM to go huge, unlucky Steve!) Now you're talking about who bred Bigtime Paddy, if my memory serves me correctly wasnt his breeder incarcerated around the time of his birth? Then a nearby trainer and an extremely dodgy ex chairman of the board swooped in and filled in the required paperwork?? And the rest is history, history shrouded in controversy, as is often the case with GRNZ. As for the action on the track, I loved the night, thought it had great drama and excitement, however I live in 2 worlds, the "greyhound world" AND the real world and let me tell you there was no cut-thru out in the real world whatsoever.
