  1. Here we go again!
  2. Why are you comparing NZ with the USA? New York City has more than twice the population of NZ and has 8 times more people living in the same area as Auckland. They have 7,000 people living homeless on the streets in New York City!
  3. 1,500 NZ'ers were infected with Covid-19. 22 NZ'ers (aged in their 80's, had comorbidities and most had advanced dementia) died with the virus. 200,000 NZ'ers get the Flu each year. 500 will die with the Flu. Again all have comorbidities that make them vulnerable. Largely those deaths occur in a younger cohort namely the 60 to 75 year old group. That's even with a publicly funded vaccine for vulnerable and essential workers. Question: Should we have a 12 week lockdown every year to save the 500?
  4. Ok that leaves 34. I guess they don't have member working bees.
  5. Yeah I picked up two winners from their picks yesterday. The last two at Canterbury one at 4's the other at 13's. The issue with the radio stream from the app is it just streams the audio from one of the video channels. So this morning instead of hearing information of the days racing you get the audio from historical video stories e.g. Barts 12 Cups. Seems it is HD audio as well because it stops and starts.
  6. How do these clubs qualify for the subsidy? Are they saying because the TAB is down in revenue so are we?
  7. You can't claim for those.
  8. FFS to think I watched the entire thing. I liked the Drivers Eye Cam. Sort of like my vision after a day of betting at the local.
  9. Yeah na. The RIU would stuff it with pre an post race polish testing.
  10. Probably because he has had a gutsful of being hounded.
  11. Then why bring it up in this context?
  12. Then why the bloody hell did the RIU engage their Police mates? Just to wear the flak jackets and radios when doing the raids?
  13. Back up there. He threw the INCA case out I.e. no crime was proven. Quite different to giving what you view to be a soft sentence.
  14. I disagree. We are not privy to all the information that was available to the Judge. It isn't as if she got off scot free. Of course the prosecutor could have asked for a review of the sentence. Contrast that with what has happened to McGrath. Even though he had no case to answer in the Court he has been financially broken and forced from his career. As well as suffering constant harassment by the RIU.
  15. So who was impeded or assisted? The comments made by McGrath could be interpreted differently depending on your viewpoint. Either way the RIU could have laid charges without spending millions of taxpayers and industry money.
  16. What's that got to do with throwing out one of the INCA cases? I suppose the Police and RIU will be appealing?
  17. Just as Star Commander would never have beaten Sheriff.
  18. And never the twain shall meet.
  19. Are you having a dollar each way? On the one hand you say it was a Police matter and nothing to do with the RIU and then hedge your bet by saying there was nothing wrong with the RIU being there. Earlier posts you suggest the RIU didn't influence the Police nor have all the information.
  20. Why were the RIU wearing flak jackets and radios when in attendance with the Police in the original raids?
  21. So Justice Neave throws another INCA case out of court last week. The RIU follow up a day later with another raid on the stables concerned.
  22. What does this mean? I am a values-based leader, with genuineness and authenticity at the heart of my personal style and approach. I am highly motivated by the need to make a difference and a significant contribution; leveraging my business skills and life experiences for the positive advancement of the organisation and its people. Success for me has come from creating and building strong teams and a business culture that has a clear sense of direction and purpose, that recognises and respects people, that drives for excellence, is values-based and is focused on growing stakeholder and community value.
  23. Good family man? http://www.nzlii.org/nz/cases/NZHC/2020/953.html
  24. I've considered using the Ozzie websites/apps but you have to be serious to hunt around for the best prices. Plus my social conscience kicks in and at least with the NZ TAB the profits they make out of my losses goes directly to the local industry.
  25. Yes they are the most consistent. There isn't much else on at the moment. Do you use the NZ TAB for that betting or do you find better odds with the OZ bookies?
