I think McKenzie is the most overpaid underachieving incompetent waste of space to every occupy an exec role ever. But what was the point of radio trackside when you can just stream trackside TV on a phone?

Look, Roger James should do the same.

JJ Flash must be McKenzies Mum. Has the guy gone yet or is NZ racing still lumbered with his incompetence and arrogance?

Give Luke Radich a permanent spot on Weigh In and the ratings will go through the roof. His rants were right on the money this week. He is intelligent and forthright and unlike Guerin has no fawning allegiance to one stable.

He once contacted me to try and get my horse moved from another trainer to his stable and Im definitely not the only one. Does that answer your question?

Bit rich Waller having a sob about losing her given all the top horses he has poached over the years. But agree VE is past her best.

She is a disgrace and a failure and always has been. Sad indictment on the whole Industry if this is the best they can do as head of the TAB board and then the dogs. I wouldn't employ her to clean my septic tank.

Your pitiful excuse for a sport is a disgrace and so is the pig of a woman in charge. Cant wait to see the back of both it cant come soon enough.

The guy is absolute scum. Enough is enough. All "Racing" gets tarred with the same brush by this disgusting excuse for sport.

Lead item on the six o clock news. More Abuse of Greyhounds by a leading trainer and another pathetic appearance by the disgraced former TAB chairperson Glenda Hughes. Time for this horrid sport to go. Time for Glenda the badwitch to jump on her broom and get the hell out of dodge. AT very least get this awful excuse for a sport off the same TRackside channel as TB racing.

What planet does this "fact" come from? NZTR might have continued to operate all the way through but racing and training stopped during lockdown and horses that should have been earning money for owners were just sitting in paddocks costing it.

As the saying goes. You get one chance to make a good first impression. Sharrock has blown it with this diatribe there is nothing here we dont already know and lets see some action not words. Starting with getting rid of dead wood and the pencil pushers with fancy corporate titles who take plenty and contribute nothing.

Colgan - McNab - Bosson apparently all positive. Meanwhile, Rosehill and Flemington party like its 1999.

More blood on the floor today. Thank goodness Book 3/Carnival no longer exists.

Bit of a weirdo but definitely held his own against the village idiot.

Exactly right Huey. Grass roots people applying for the Board first ask themselves "what can i do to effect change for the better". Whereas the "more qualified" types would be asking how much it paid.

you couldn't make this stuff up. Surely the Board needed a non gender specific anti vax Maori with lesbian parents for a bit of diversity.

Their Christmas parties might be a bit more fun in future 🙄 https://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/gregor-paul-strippergate-finally-catches-up-with-chiefs-ceo-andrew-flexman

Start with the guy at the top who has ruled for longer than the last King Of Thailand.

Lets just move every race meeting to Ruakaka. This has got beyond ridiculous.

Its not really a theory its a fact that they have the same colours but since Melody Belle is always included as a Te Akau horse i guess you are right.

Hard not to. Same colours. Same rhetoric.

Just out of interest does anyone know if NZ Racing news is officially affiliated with Te Akau? Or do they just have the same corporate colours by accident.

I wouldnt say that. And 95% of the horses purchased he sales arent promoted publicly as potentially the next Savabeel.

Jason Bridgman also had a proven team behind him but was a relative failure. Jamie Richards isn’t just an exceptional trainer he is a great communicator with charisma in spades that Mark Walker has in spoons.. Teakau can spin all they like they will miss Richards terribly but Richards certainly wont miss sending out all those emails to owners telling them their expensive pick of the sale horse purchased by principal Dave cant run fast enough to keep warm.
