LOL! Greg these suits are paid big money to perform! I dont need to be paid big money, and I could advise them how to run things!

And 80’s Ranga!, FFS there are over 100 die of other things in Nz every day and we dont close the country!!!! During level 4 lockdown they reckon over 200 females with breast cancer werent diagnosed due to there not being testing for that! Instead there is this ramming cotton buds up peoples snouts that were not even crook!!! We have approx. 1000 people in NZ die from influenza most years but no lets control these sheep! We have got far more people with depression and mental Illness now than ever due to financial and other issues! Thats right we have to be KIND!!! Reality is that this influenza they call Covid 19 is not going to be eradicated just like the common flu, but it is ok to stuff people so that they need to rely on the government! There is a word for it, and it starts with C!!!

Would be great if it could run a place due to recent circumstances! Would need to draw in close from behind a mobile on the grass to have much chance though. Would think the grass fields at Methven would be pretty strong so tou would need to be very brave to support it as it aint that brave!

FFS, there is no bloody COVID19 in the community in the wholeSouth Island and yet the public jsnt allowed kn a race course at Methven! It is just blatant bs scaremongering from a totally incompetent control freak! We have 800 deaths every week in NZ without Covid19 and yet this nas never been mentioned by Ardern or Bloomfield! Sheep are wandering around with surgical masks over their faces because they are scared! Every year people in the future are going to be walking around with masks because there is aLways going to be influenza. She has continued to control you so that it takes away the fact that the government has failed with Everything they campaigned on!

Greg, all I ask is that decision making by the suits is to the benefit of racing so that it continues. We have CEO appointed who is invisible mostly and so far has not achieved a single thing as he is part time in the role.

Na, money laundering according to the NZ TAB is people who want to make more than $1k. We just can not have this without knowing g who is collecting $1k and if they do this a couple of times, we are going to stop this! Hopefully once Glen Saville is gone, the NZ TAB will look at all thre stuff uls and encourage the punters back! The new executives surely can not be as useless as the last lot?

Greg, with respect, we all know the JCA always make the right call don’t we? To be fair they make a helluva lot of very poor calls, so the fact that CJ was found guilty does not mean a lot! When it comes to common sense and fairness, it does not register Too highly on the qualities of HRNZ unfortunately!

Actually big hooters arent all they are cracked up to be Booby, When they head south it is actually pretty grotesque! After child bearing age, there really is not a helluva lot of purpose in having them especially if they are not at their best! Saggy baggy bigguns aint flash!

Booby, forums are designed for people to offer their opinion on things! I could post many things that are positive but that becomes very very boring and does not garner opinion! Brodie, offers up what he thinks is right or wrong and always comes from the heart! There have been many things that have been done wrong by harness officials etc and without pointing them out, harness will continue to decline. Yes a lot of my posts may well be negatively based however there would be very few if any that I am wrong about! Yes I have several gripes as you will be well aware of, however I have never been one to sit back and accept things when they are clearly not right. Yes there are antagonists that want to have Brodie on just because they think they can get under my skin! I will never back down from making my point of view piblic and if people dont like it then so be it! Apart from Brodie being victimised by the NZ TAB, there have been many other decisions that are just not correct and has put harness racing in a very precarious position uNfortunately! There have been many participants picked on, there have been many suits making decisions that are plainLy dumb, from not only HRNZ but the NZ TAB! You can agree with Brodie or you can disagree, however I will never relent from expressing my opinion, as in my mind it is always “ on the money”

Spectators! What do they mean by TAB Store? They are self service only I wouldve thought? Ticket seller on race day or dogs on!

The Stipes are well known for making poor calls and this is just another! There are drives in every race where drivers do not give their charges the best opportunity! Are they going to suspend these drivers for their errors?

I note the money has come once again for Khal Drogo in the first race at Addington on Friday night. It quickly moved from $34 in to $18 on fixed odds win!! Last start was the same so where there is smoke there is fire as they say! Must be educated money I would say, but perhaps they didnt finish High School? The way it went last start, you wouldnt touch it with a barge pole, as in its limited career it has not shown alot on the race day, unsure what it has done to warrant support against a reasonably strong field? Someone obviously thinks it can win going by the movement in, but can not see in being in the money on what it has shown so far! Anyone know why it has shortened appreciably?

It is great that we can have debate on BOAY, makes for interesting reading! Hi Everyone may have a differing opinion as to whether CJ was guilty of an offence! Maybe he was in terms of the rules, was he deliberate in his actions because it was a stablemate of the horse he didnt train? Personally dont think it mattered that it was a Sam Smolenski horse that made him restrain his horse at all!!!!

Whiplash, this is your best rant ever! Not a Lot of point responding to it, apart from wanting to know if you are in the market for some sleepers? PS. You are right, I am the worst punter in the country, so can you have a word in the ear of the Bookies in Wellington and get My restrictions lifted?

Allstars wouldnt get done for it ever! It would be in the media big time and not great publicity again for harness racing! We all have opinions and that is good! Reality is that drivers pull back all the time and let other horses in, when they dont have to! They may not be stablemates but are they going to get done? This sets a precedent once again.

Time the sheep start to tell this government that enough is enough! This second lockdown in Auckland and level 2 in Auckland has been caused by the incompetent coalition govt! How on earth anyone can have any confidence In this lot, when they still reckon they dont know where it started! The country’s esteemed leader has not got a clue and has not done a good job at managing this Covid19 virus at all, although so many think she has compared to other countries! The fact that we have had only 22 deaths to people who wouldve died by bow anyway, has got very little to Arderns leadership at all! It is all to do with the fact that the strain of virus in NZ is a very mild influenza. Every now and then they put someone out there saying how crook they were, well every winter heaps of people died from the flu in NZ . Fact is that it wont kill you in NZ if you are not on the way out already!

To be fair, we dont have too many occurrances on the whole. To my mind I would have thought that it would happen more than it actually does when you consider the closeness they actually race and speed etc. Of course it is not a lot of fun when the horse you backed, locks wheels! Just one of those things that we have to put up with I suppose in harness, just like incompetent officials!

This bunch of losers that we have in charge of running the country are far mkre incompetent than what most people think! Unfortunately in a time when we have needed leadership we have had a control freak at the helm. What I have learnt from this is how easy people are able to be led, and how cults are easily formed! NZ population need to wake up to what has been allowed to happen and vote this totally inept government out of power in October! One stuff up after another, still telling plenty of untruths and nillness allowed to continually occur! Where is the Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, Kelvin Davis, Minister of Tourism lol? Phil Twyford once again involved with this Green School debacle!

There have been no cases of community Covid -19 in Canterbury for months and yet still only 100 allowed on course at Addington?... This is just blatant stupidity and yet NZ sheep continue to accept it! Surely common sense should prevail and get back to normal as no one I know has known a single person with this influenza! With these many many meetings that people havent been allowed oncourse due to the killer virus, surely this is going to lose some of the people that previously were going? Defies logic that this continues indefinitely!

Colin De Filippi in my opinion would be as honest a person that there is in harness racing in NZ. You only have to look at his record for many decades, and questioning his honesty in that race is puzzling? Still dont believe that CJ deliberately let that horse in because it was a stablemate! If an Allstar horse comes around and gives another Allstars horse cover, on the same basis that driver needs to be charged!,

And we don’t see the AllStars stable team driving and giving stablemates favours?? CJ had nothing whatsoever to gain and from watching the replay you can see that if he hadve pressed on then his horse possibly gallops. Ydgren says that it was perceptively damaging the look of harness racing!!! FFS, what be good if HRNZ could look at the many other things that has damaged the image of harness racing which they have caused!!!!

I have only just seen the replay of the race as I didnt watch it live! I dont believe that CJ let the stable mate in because it was a stablemate! You see this sort of thing all of the time and CJ is not an aggressive driver nowadays! Certainly did not deserve 7 days holiday!

20 plus times, more like double that Dougie. You have an incredible number of opportunities to race a horse in Oz.

You need to keep safe as people in Rest Homes are so vulnerable to the killer virus! You should be staying in your room with a mask on and self isolating!

Think it is a bit rough on CJ! Cindy keeps telling us to be kind, and yet he gets done big time?
