Npc games producing some close scores bar Manawatu, I suspect Southland and Northland will join Manawatu as the strugglers. Watching primes games coverage, not easy to cover everything,mostly focussing on NZ competitors which is fair enough always plugging skys online coverage,sometimes they overdo the add breaks, Lora Mcgoldrick I think is a good presenter, now that Sky dont have cricket probably needed to find something else for her to do, Sky have the premier league now, be very interesting to know if they have increased their subscribers to match the rights cost, dont think Cricket did itself any favors putting all our Cricket online,how long spark stay in sport who would know competition still made sky rethink its strategy.

Hopefully we can keep this thread alive. Game 1 Nov, Canterbury 62 15 over Manawatu, not sure if the lesser teams will be over the moon at the new concept, no playoffs for the bottom 6, that might have made it more interesting. At this time once again our female teams ,Netball and Cricket teetering on the point of failure, nothing new.

Slightly different as it's a 3 day meeting.

Looks like the Northeners ain't interested in the synthetic track judging by nominations for day 2.

Hopefully we can keep this thread going as it's been moved to political yarns and it actually a free for all. Anybody got any thoughts about the NPC starting at the weekend, the formats changed to two conferences of 7 , 6 games and 4 crossover the quarter finals and semis, just one criticism, teams finishing 5 6 and 7 in pool play finish early, maybe a set of playoffs would generate some interest for some of the lesser unions, one positive though is everybody starts day one with a chance of winning the big prize.

Easy as that.

Maybe shifting the jumps racing to Whanganui could make sense.

Thats what i thought.

Hopefully we can keep thread alive ,its been moved but thats ok,we have got a start anyway. Another funny. Reggie Perrin visits doctor2.mp4

I'm not doubting ya but the dates please, your up with things much more than me.

I might be wrong but it appers to only be 2 jumps races now, with the domination of one trainer its gunna replicate a lot of higher stake harness races.

Over 6000 views and over 200 replys this thread is probably the most visited and most posted thats been on Boay, from the vaccine to the government to one or two other things proves there is room for a forum outside racing, only started on harness section as it seems no one visits the other sections. I only add some video clips to add some further variety, some are funny, well i think they are, some might disagree, everybodys different. As ive stated before i dont do social media, this place keeps me amused enough, there is basically mostly negativity about most things racing but in the states its in understandable, too much negativity aint good for anyone.

The other delusion is the zero road toll, will never happen.

And don't think I'm anti Maori, next the churches will be pushing their views somewhere in the story, or the greens or something.

Maybe they should make the race for rating 100 and over, just have a. 3 horse field then let all the others race in the junior free for all, at least they race in a free for all they may win.

I find all the Maori words during tv ones news and weather irritating, then I see them saying Aoetearoa had a good day at the games, when I had a look at the medal table couldn't find Aoetearoa anywhere on the table😁

I think a lot of the women playing men's games are gay , think they have their wires crossed.

Talking of womens sport the England women won the Euro soccer final after extra time, the first time England have won anything since 1966, probably be another 56 years before they will win again, biggest crowd ever for a Euro match, either sex but people jump on the bandwagon some times, the English are starved of success so anything to get them hyped up.

Enlighten me, please.

Talk about drivers leaning back in the sulky, Ive watched the odd race from America, all the drivers lean back in the sulky, seems they only need a rein to break and they are in serious bother, just a thought.

Stakes must be being subsidised by other clubs, Westport is one of the biggest turnover for the season on Boxing Day, maybe they are subsidising Auckland as their stakes are rather modest.
