Are you succumbing to internet bullying Ian Anyway, it's Hesirelli!! and the Nillers, could be a large band though, a lot of nillers around.............apparently
-
I see the lack of respect for personal details obtained via a position of privilege continues on the ex Premier racing site I suppose you could always start looking at posters private mail Scooby Oh that's right, you already do don't you?, with that little file you purchased off Invision a few months ago. Is that' how much you think of your posters?

I see I now have my own thread thanks to Richmond Tiger(Scooby) - thanks The simple answer, Hesi has a long memory, and is not afraid to stir the pot with people who stir his pot, and he can do it on this site, because the said person can't hide behind his mother's skirt, not that he needed to, but the mother hen thing is still very alive and kicking. Plus he has a bit of a disliking with people whose posts, contain a lot of wank factor By the way Scoobs, this site has been matching you, users online, all morning, sometimes a bit ahead, sometimes a bit behind. I would be more worried about that, than playing your pathetic little multiple identity games

I thought BVSc at Massey, only did Year 1 Biochemistry(12 credits)
-
Yeah Because he is an expert on people dwelling under bridges, it would be like asking him to represent the homeless
-
Not a real leaguey, but what happened to Ali Lauititi, who also left the club when appearing to be playing in great form
-
Warriors do seem to have a habit of seeing their players go on and play their best league, after they leave the club, James Maloney for instance. Somewhat of a journeyman here, leaves to become an Origin player of some repute

Expert on climate change, equine biochemistry, people living under bridges, quite a wordsmith Bonneval wins the Caulfield Cup Clayton Mitchell is racing minister

Don't forget the Nats/Greens coalition

A bit of sledging never did anyone any harm, except those pathetic Aussies Preferable that he keeps it going, it will just drive those, other than the sycophants and cronies away from RC to BOAY. By the way, no hard feelings, you're all welcome, except .......................??
-
Hahaha Done nothing? How about set up a new chat site, that is now a serious challenger to RC's market leadership, made easier of course by the vile toxicity that has re-appeared on RC, and was initially one of the reasons BOAY was able to establish itself and attract so many posters. How much are you still owed Doug from RC days
-
Sensible advice Jess Let the Chief worry about the bigger picture of the impact it may have on the site
-
As you say, some great posters on both sites, and I'd love a few of them to come over here The simple fact of the matter though, is that RC was poorly run, to the extent it opened up an opportunity for another site to start up and get established, and the people behind RC resent that, when they only have themselves to blame. What chance that BOAY could compete if most were satisfied with RC, very little, and also very little reason to start a new site in the first place So co-exist, yeah, simply by the fact that BOAY is now established and the competition have no other choice. But they would like nothing better than to see BOAY fall over tomorrow, and it won't, because there are too many people committed to seeing that won't happen, despite the hiccups and learning curve we have been going down........loyalty I think it is called And while I'm on a roll, a lot of people would like to see a few banned on here, simply because they are a pain in the ass and people don't like them, you all know who I mean I can tell you, the Chief, won't go down that road, even if it means turning a few people off, because the principle of free speech is more important, even though he owns the site and could do what he wants
-
Anyhoo, back to Racing. Anyone got any inkling at all of what the track will be at Counties tomorrow. Currently D4, but a lot of rain forecast for tomorrow, but then they have changed the forecast so many times in the last 24 hours
-
Fair enough, it's just that there are benefits associated with market leadership Good chat on BOAY, but needs to be a lot more, and that only comes with many more people joining up and contributing, preferably with informed and interesting views.......but that is not a prerequisite The Chief is a strong advocate of freedom of speech, regardless
-
Very transparent isn't it, but I suppose it is minor compared to breaking into people's user accounts and changing their usernames to something derogatory, which I presume means they can access private mail as well
-
Appears to be a reference to Guerin's family ??? Breach of privacy and bringing anyone's family into it is a big no no on BOAY, so have deleted any reference. Correct me if I am wrong, but for the moment it is gone

No one on this site is really interested in responding on here to the vituperative prose that has just resurfaced, now the wall to wall comps are not being rammed down everyone's throats They can't do it on the multi coloured flip flop site, because most of us are banned for daring to have an opinion the idiot owner did not like, Te Akau was a fave. But feel free to join up here for the debate, you sometimes make some good points(Open letter to the Informant thread) The Chief doesn't ban people for having a contrary opinion, although watch your language

From Massey University website American vs. British spelling When writing assignments in New Zealand most lecturers will expect you to spell words in the British rather than the American fashion. Note however that some lecturers only insist on internal consistency: it should either have totally British spelling or totally American spelling. Ensure that your computer's spell-checker is set to the correct variety of English, or check in a good dictionary. The main differences between British and American spelling are as follows: -re vs. -er Words ending in -re in British English are usually written -er in American English.

Racing: Shark circles A$5m bait 21 Nov, 2018 5:00am 4 minutes to read Te Akau Shark wowed fans winning the Coupland's Bakeries Mile at Riccarton last week. Photo / Race Images South NZ Herald By: Michael Guerin What could have been a A$5 million dream race for New Zealand's most exciting galloper might be ruled out by inter-state rivalry. Because Te Akau boss David Ellis says he won't deviate from a career-long philosophy to aim Te Akau Shark at the new All Star Mile at Flemington in March. Victorian racing bosses have announced the new glamour race of their autumn carnival for March 16, with it to alternate between Flemington, Moonee Valley and Caulfield over the next three years. One of the novelty factors of the new race will be the public will get to vote on 10 of those who get to start after nominations are taken, with the remaining four spots selected by Racing Victoria in a wild card capacity, meaning any horse is eligible. The most obvious question on the minds of all Australian racing fans will be whether Winx, who looks certain to race on in the autumn, can be lured to Melbourne one last time or whether trainer Chris Waller will stick to his tried and true formula closer to home. But in New Zealand the question revolves around Te Akau Shark, who wowed racing fans with his dazzling sectionals winning the Coupland's Mile at Riccarton last Wednesday. While he didn't beat anything like what he would meet in a major Australian race Te Akau Shark was stunning both to the eye and on the sectionals clock and when champion jockey Opie Bosson labels him one of the best he has ridden they are words to be taken seriously. But the Shark chasing the All Star Mile story could be short lived. While Ellis loves the innovation of the new race he says the weight-for-age conditions could be too early for Te Akau Shark. "I think we have to take advantage of his lower position in the weights while we can," Ellis told the Herald. "It has been a policy of mine all along in racing to give them a chance at the good handicap races when you can because once we step him up to weight-for-age that is where he will stay. "I can see him getting into a race like the Doncaster (Sydney, April 6) with 53.5kgs at the moment so that will be his main target." Ellis admits he won't know whether attempting both races without the possibility of a re-handicap is likely until at least next week when a decision is made on when the weights for the Doncaster will be released. Once they are out the Te Akau Shark can't be re-handicapped for winning a weight-for-age race like the All Star Mile. But the Australian Turf Club has yet to announce when they will release the Doncaster weights and while it would usually be late February, with the current state of heated competition between NSW and Victoria, the weights being put back to after the All Star Mile isn't outside the realms of possibility. "Once we know that we will know more about the chances of taking him to Melbourne. But the first plan is Sydney for the Doncaster and then, all going well, the Queen Elizabeth." The latter could see Te Akau Shark taking on Winx in what could very well be her last race and while the giant chestnut has yet to race at 2000m, Ellis believes he will get that trip. His dam Bak De Chief won the 2006 Waikato Cup over 2400m and none of her five career wins came in races shorter than 2000m. Te Akau Shark's win was the highlight of a rollercoaster week for Te Akau, with last season's 2000 Guineas winner Embellish retired to Cambridge Stud this week after failing to show his best again last Saturday. But on the positive side of the ledger, last season's champion juvenile filly Avantage has been given the all clear to return to work by the vets after recovering from a back problem after her comeback win at Hastings in September. "It will be great to have her back working but it might come a little late for the Karaka Classic in January," admits Ellis. "Still, she will have plenty of options in Sydney and Queensland later in the season." The stable's early season sprinter-miler superstar Melody Belle is pleasing trainer Jamie Richards and is set to trial at Matamata next Tuesday before being aimed at the Railway (Ellerslie, January 1) and the Telegraph (Trentham, January 19).

Had a look this morning, clicked on the trainers section, then on an individual trainer, and they have nominations for that trainer, out as far as the Auckland Cup on March 9. This must be new, and a welcome addition, can't recall it in the past

Here, save you the trouble, may have been the 'suit', the Chief was referring to Sean Sullivan to visit the fortune teller and offer some choice forecasting of his own. Police confirmed in April they'd received a complaint alleging Sullivan was offered a fee of $1000 to encourage Murray to remove comments from his website that Molloy found offensive. Only, it turns out, the hard man likes horoscopes! Who knew?! Sullivan turned up at Murray's home on March 23 to follow Molloy's instructions, a Sunday newspaper reported, but instead, sat down for an astrological reading "which took about half an hour and was very accurate", Sullivan's police statement said. "I had no intentions of threatening Don or causing him harm because he seemed like a nice chap," he said in his statement. Molloy told the paper the cops would spend little time on the complaint. "The police will laugh at this. As soon as they come to me I will refer them to a number of prominent people I know who will tell them straight that I do good things for a lot of people," he said.

So why close it down in 2026 and move to the new $80 mil Waikato Greenfields whatever, if racing is to be seen as an essentially off course activity to generate betting
-
Sounds like you know him well Ghost. That would be my reading of him as well, from what I had read of his posts on the multi coloured flip flop site, as I have also never met him. Seems to adore Molloy, who is at the opposite end of the spectrum........ ah well can't be perfect I guess
