  1. and the best cover
  2. From what you have posted Steve, you would have to be a Pom, so you must be in cricket heaven, and hard to see how the Aussies can find another gear
  3. With a name like that, my first thought, another of his many 'cousins', but then he writes too well

    Good stuff, there is hope, which is more than you can say for the Aus cricket team
  5. that is Australian cricket. Absolutely smashed by the Poms overnight, 481 for 6 !! in 50 overs, and they reply with a measly 239 in 37 overs. Couldn't happen to nicer blokes, the Aus press will cut them to ribbons, but they don't have any answers.
  6. Hey Scoobs, why don't you just join this site, you spend enough time on it, finding out about all the news and goss and how to run interesting comps, that attract lots of people, without having to offer big prizes. The Chief has a policy of not precluding anyone. Alternatively you could just sell RC, while it might be worth a dollar or two, before you run it totally into the ground, as you have absolutely very little idea about how to run an internet chat site, even with all your nasty little bag of tricks
  7. After that effort, we might have to put you on the BOAY Honours Board, Barry 9.10 Place 6.30 Winner 8.60 Place 18.50 Winner from 9 selections in 8 races Not to mention the FF prices
  8. It reflects a lot worse on him than it does on you Jason. Anyway, be thankful for small mercies, I've seen some of the nonsense he directs at the Chief, and it is not pretty

    They appear to take it very seriously in America https://www.nzherald.co.nz/entertainment/news/article.cfm?c_id=1501119&objectid=12072317

  10. All we need is Chris Thomson to join, and that's the tipping side wrapped up Where is he these days, Melbourne Cup is only 4 and a half months away, and his MC comps were legendary
  11. Yep that's pretty impressive stuff Barry. Hope you relaxed your rule of not betting for a place. Kyrie Eleison was good yesterday too, the only winner in NZ to pay double figures
  12. You mean R9 Kyrie Eleison $2 EW?
  13. Bugger this, do they need a another clerk of the course
  14. Happens about 1.18, but close up replay at about 6.28 http://www.nzracing.co.nz/Common/SystemTemplates/Modal/Video.aspx?v=http%3a%2f%2fwww.racingreplays.co.nz%2fmedia%2f201806%2f20180616MTU01_BB.mp4&i=%2fCommon%2fImage.ashx%3fw%3d720%26h%3d400%26a%3d1%26o%3d1%26bg%3deeeeee%26p%3dhttp%3a%2f%2fwww.racingreplays.co.nz%2fmedia%2f201806%2f20180616MTU01_BB.jpg&r=Race+1+-+ITM+FRAME+AND+TRUSS+MAIDEN+STEEPLECHASE&s=http://www.nzracing.co.nz/Common/SystemTemplates/Modal/Video.aspx?v=http%3a%2f%2fwww.racingreplays.co.nz%2fmedia%2f201806%2f20180616MTU01_BB.mp4
  15. Not prepared to set odds on that?

    I don't know Jason, from a bar of soap, not that I know many bars of soap anyway The rules are simple, if you can't debate without dropping down to personally abusing someone, then probably better just to not debate.
  17. R7 Awapuni Our Bandit(14/3.40 FF)must be due to run into form after 2 starts back. Drops to 54 kg from WFA 59 kg

    Robust debate is to be encouraged, but FFS do it without the vile personal abuse. One of the reasons this site was started was because of the sanctioned extreme personal abuse on Race Cafe, mainly from you know who, which I see still continues
  19. You're in good company then Mine, N1MUE and The Crucibles mailboxes got deleted ages ago, and it would not surprise me if they have been looked at first. Invision, the company that do the software for BOAY and RC, will tell you that it is possible for administrators to look at PM's, not that I am saying they do.
  20. I can confirm this, as the request(from Dark Beau) initially came to me, as they were having difficulty loading the pic they wanted for their avatar
  21. Just re-reading this, the concern here, is that if your avatar has been changed by someone other than you, then the person doing it, are they able to do it without logging into your account, and does this also mean that the person doing it, can they also access private personal mail?
  22. You might recall VS, this song was used by Hertz Rental cars in the "Love Hertz" ad
  23. You got it Brodie, slowly the good people in Racing are coming to appreciate quality, only the morons and bigots left, but it is like that cheese advert, good things take time If people really knew what went on at that site, most would leave overnight, even the most faithful would draw the line.......except for the morons and bigots of course
  24. We are probably all meaning well, but to a large extent we are not experts I dug this up from the NZ Herald, 21 Dec 2016, you would have thought this guy would know, was there ever any recommendations that came out of this. Last Saturday's abandonment of Awapuni's $100,000 Manawatu Cup day, later reinstated as a postponement until Sunday, has cranked up awareness of repeating problems and at 10am today a meeting has been called to examine the causative factors leading to the problem. At that meeting will be trainers, jockeys, club representatives, Integrity Unit representatives, racing stewards and the special guest will be one of the world experts on track maintenance, John Jeffs. He was the longtime track curator at Sydney's Rosehill course before moving to the same position in Hong Kong.
