Brodie

$100 is not the way I want to wager. Fact is that the TAB do not want me wagering and yet their wastage of the punters money on themselves is Ok!

You gone quiet MardiGras???

FFS, MardiGras, if anyone has difficulty with understanding, it is you! The point is, and you can not comprehend, is that the TAB is a betting organisation that is meant to accept bets! The only problem is that they will accept bets from most punters and yet others they will only take small ones or not at all sometimes. Punters are being treated not equally! The fact of the matter also is that it is very ironic that you state that you do not really bet in NZ, so it is rather hard to take your opinion that seriously. You may have an agenda to belittle Brodie, but truth is that you shoot off a BS comment and then not prepared to support it when I offer you the chance to make money! Says it all really!

Fact is, that the NZ TAB are hypocritical in their actions!!! Firstly they restrict certain punters from being able to place bets with them, despite the fact they used to advertise, “you know the odds now beat them” Then it was “are you in” Despite this they treat punters differently, some get on as much as they want and others next to nothing! Then they advertise that they care about punters that lose!!!!! What a load of BS, all they want is losing punters !

Are you up for the challenge MardiGras to back your claim that Brodie is a fraud or are you one that just accuses? Surely, you would love tO take $10k off the clueless one

Do realise how stupid what you are saying is? They are all treated equally but differently depending on the risk lol

FFS, a restricted punter is restricted to an amount, irrespective of what the horse or bet is! It has got nothing at all to do with whether the Bookies have overpriced the horse or not! If restricted punters want to back something it doesnt matter if it is at generous odds or shorts, the punter is only allowed to net a pathetic amount! How on earth are restricted punters treated equally when they are restricted to different amounts, that is BS and you know it, MardiGras!!!! Chief doesnt have to support Brodie at any time, however there is a rogue element, that think they are smart and just want to have a crack at him. MardiGras, if you want to persist in calling Brodie a fraud, meet my challenge to you to prove that I am a fraud, or retract your accusation! Lets make it a lazy $10k and the stake to go to a charity that gets the most votes from BOAY posters! If you are not prepared to meet my challenge then I will take it that you are just a troller and spurt off.

I hope that The Spitfire does win a race, as he deserves one for trying ! I wouldnt be putting too much on it though as the field he was in the other day was extremely weak and didnt have to do any work. You would have to ask the question though, why has the 2 Averos’s that have go e to O’Connells both grown another leg ?

You may well be right, as long as he is not driving!

Give it a break Mikie, the school bully is not very endearing! If you get something out of calling “The Brodster” clueless then you are easily pleased! I will take clueless and successful over clued up and not sucessful any day! Now give it away and watch the T20 cricket that’s on now!

Clueless and law abiding Mikie! Take it onboard

You are obviously not aware of how I wager Mardigras! The TAB with their tight restrictions have a very flawed business plan! They should be encouraging wagering rather than turning punters off!!! The odds are always in their favour and by restricting many punters they are losing revenue and profit big time. Not every restricted punter can win on every race and by restricting to small amounts is costing them. Accept the bets and then adjust the price so that they dont take much more on it which encourages wagering on other horses! Turnover is where it is at, if you want to make a bigger profit!!! You will say that paying out to successful punters is not where it is at, but I say the more they encourage punters the more profit the TAB will make, as the odds are always in the betting agencies favour!

My business is not a betting agency! We treat all our customers equally and not unjustly, as the NZ TAB do! A betting agency need to take the good with the bad just like any business! If they cant make a go of it, then get out of the kitchen. We provide a service and people pay for that service, totally different to a betting agency!!!!

So you can watch and bet on it! Cricket is going to lose popularity with it not on Sky!

You would have to be thinking it is only tine before Ricky Donnelly is doing them all! Hopefully it is Donnelly at Mot!

MardiGras, when you are limited to such pathetic amounts, to win any small amount in a day or night, you need to need to be getting a collect about 50% of the time or you are only making pocket money due to the very small amounts being able to be placed. The betting platform they paid mega millions for has done nothing for the punters whatsoever!

Are you sure it wasn’t on both channels, Ranga?

They still have too many tight tracks like Wagga and That shocker in Queensland Marburg, Globe Derby is also tight. 1000m not too bad but still nothing beats Addington!!

Backing the winner probably helps Mikie It was always going to trail the Needham horse who was always going to run them along. There really was nothing else in the race with much ability. Does O’Connell train on the Waikouaiti beach? If he does maybe the beach work has set the horse alight.

Yay, finally a placing!!!! Onwards and upwards from here and to pay its way! The ability finally coming through lol. Retirement staved off at last!! Great day for the horse and harness racing in NZ.

What I ask is that all punters are treated equally! The TAB is a betting agency and accordingly, they should be taking the loss’s along with the wins!!!! I believe that they are going to find that the punters are going to eventually get totally pissed with them and vote with their feet on harness racing! Everything is now in the NZ TAB’s favour in that they effectively totally control punters, as they restrict to netting pathetic amounts, and to make a small amount you have to be getting a better than 50% success rate!!!!!!!!!! Far easier ways nowadays to make good money without being treated like a criminal by the NZ TAB!!!

Chief you are correct! Truth of the matter is that anyone that is thinking about being able to win large amounts continuously, is delusional! The NZ TAB has got everything in their favour, to the point where it is basically a waste of time and effort if you are wanting big returns. I question whether there too many punting professionals around as any winning punters are restricted to ridiculous low amountd. The BS anti money laundering crap also controls punters offloading significant amounts if you are a winning punter. Being able to net $200 on a bet and then have odds slashed and then not being able to have another small go at the reduced odds is just BS!!!!! The Paddy Power catastrophe has made it even worse. Yes the greyhound punter with the 40k on I would definitely say was a certain losing punter,!

Personally believe that harness racing will be better with the stake money being shared around more. From a punting perspective, will also be far more attractive! Ozzie harness would be far better if they were not racing on wee saucer tracks.

Very weak field, only a couple in it have much ability, no.s 1 and 2! can it run 3rd? Nah
