  1. Last race at Morphetville they did it right. Stayed with the on track personnel till result posted.
  2. THe second one arrives a bit later. 1 serious suggestion I would make is that they stay with the on-track team especially for the tight finishes in Aus. They are more likely to be more able update us (and more quickly) on the finish than those sitting in the studio
  3. It does. I'm trying to put the substance you knead into bread.
  4. Maybe it's when I type "Chief Stipeh" it changes. We'll see. Chief Stipeh
  5. Meant to be "make their Chief Stipeh". Don't a mangled Chief Stipe got in there.
  6. Yeah me neither. They are good presenters in their own right. It is ill conceived and badly produced. They've got to remember it is a racing channel and betting is how they make their Chief Stipeh. They nearly made a huge blunder when they cut after the Grand National straight to Randwick with a horse being reshod but thankfully recovered.
  7. Philippa seems to be getting her money easy so far
  8. Plus Doomben and Morphettville. Yeah someone suggested that Entain were copying some Aus racing channel. Like to know which one it is. All I see is Sky and Racing.com and it doesn't look like either one of those although we don't get their graphics - unfortunately.
  9. Yeah it does seem excessive. Same for Friday Nights. Much as I like Greg O'Connor he's wasted being in Studio. Yesterday I had the sound muted most of the time but I don't think having 2 on camera, in studio, adds anything. Certainly shows up the paucity of actual betting/racing graphics on screen. My bugbears of lack of results and next race notifications (both channels) remain extremely annoying.
  10. In the words of our eloquent beloved leader - whoopdee doo. Still no results
  11. Seems, in terms of frequency, their communications have improved. But given the abandonments and further delays etc it would appear that nothing has changed - at best.
  12. A few add ons. Nothing substantial. It must get tiring being a shill for Entain.
  13. Think we had all that prior to Entain.
  14. Piston broke. The TR is in safe hands. NOT
  15. That's how John Oatham's been doing his track inspections for years
  16. Wouldn't believe a word Cameron Rodger says. He's a PR guy through and through only interested in perception rather than substance. Mind you getting Trackside back on Freeview was a positive move. Taking it off it was a regressive move made under an old regime which I and many others pointed out at the time.
  17. Beware of Aussies and bankers. Steele appear to be both.
  18. To damn Warwick with faint praise he can only do better than Cameron George. George continuing with his behaviour in moving on from a job before he can be held accountable for the carnage that he has left.
  19. I have no idea. I seem to remember that it was an actual hit long before that (in fact I did a Google Search and) "Love Is All Around" is a song recorded by English rock band the Troggs. Released as a single in October 1967, it was a top-ten hit in both the UK and US. It is a lie of course to say that they have an existing new app - as existing customers know and new customers will find out. So it's all well and good to have an advertising splurge but if your product is substandard it won't matter. That is, you're shining up shit and calling it gold.
  20. Yeah catching all that on podcasts. Leaves me flat but I guess it's not aimed at me. Absolutely kills a good song, Reminds me of the America's Cup and Dave Dobbyn's Loyal
  21. Post race jockey interview? Either way much rather have her than the others.
  22. Good to have her back especially doing post race jockey interviews.
  23. Just accept a substandard service? Not me
