I am not a Nazi fullstop! I have no political affiliation, I vote for who I think will be best for NZ, If I thought that Labour were the best party to lead NZ, then I would vote for them! The truth of the matter unfortunately, is that we have the worst possible coalition government at a time when we need a government with economical sense, This lot in 3 years have achieved absolutely nothing of benefit to NZ, every policy that they campaigned on has been a total failure! How on earth anyone could vote for a party that has been a total failure defies logic!!! A vote for the left is a vote for failure!

Who cares about Aiden Rodley? He only does work for that other racing medium!!! There is far more to it than broadcasting I would say for Greg, cos he didnt get started on anything! Its ok, we got Holden at the helm! Bon Voyage!! Captain going down with the ship.
-
I wonder if this was one of the reasons Greg O’Connor walked? It was never going to be temporary! Full of BS! If he is the best HRNZ can get, then no one can resuscitate it!

Whiplash, not sure why you want to call me a Cxxt? I will take that as a compliment, as they can be useful! The “Brodster” says it the way it is,, and asks the questions that need to be asked! Harness Racing is struggling more than it ever has, and yet we have these drongos in important positions, not performing to a high standard! They have successfully made sure that one of their most promising drivers/ trainers has been forced out of the industry, so well done there. I dont give a rats if people dont agree with me, as I dont rely on harness racing for a living! I do care that so many very hardworking people who do rely on harness racing for a living are going to also be forced out of racing, due to incomptetence. Better decision making needs to be made from hierarch, however I doubt very much that the current lot are capable enough!!!

Happy, be kind? The RIU have totally persecuted many people unnecessarily from the harness racing industry. It has cost them hundreds of thousands and for what? Notging! Young Matt Anderson has been totally stuffed by the RIU and now they want $5k off him for costs? Yet they have several less than average employees on very good money and they want to get $5k off Matt Anderson when he has not got it? And Happy, you want to be kind to them?

The shocking start on race 9 on 9/08/2020 at Addington was meant to have had an enquiry opened up on it!!! Are the JCA/Stipes/ starter hoping that everyone just forgets about it? Not on your nelly! There was no mention whatsoever from the stewards in last nights report!!!!!! Not too sure what an enquiry is going to do as anyone with any sense, saw what happened!! Come on Racing Integrity Unit, time you showed some integrity and give us all what action you are going to take against the starter? Thats right, you will come up with some BS and cover for the steward/starter, just as your name suggests! Looking forward to what they have to say.

Ranga, Covid19 is a very catchy very mild virus If you are in reasonable health you are fine. Just ludicrous to think everytime someone is positive they need to shut the country down! Unfortunately we have a socalled government that has not got any economic sense.
-
Yes it is a very boring program! Nothing worth backing as far as I can see! Great that there are no 2000metre stands though! Longowner, you are correct, They need to mix it a up a bit One thing I can guarantee is, that there are bugerall on track!
-
Tried to, but the operators still wanted identification before they could hand it over, because they had more than $1k on hand!!
-
Basil, why do you always want to defend mediocracy and incompetency? This government has continually effed up and you can not defend them. This country is just so effed with them in power for another 3 years! Mother Theresa has not got any common sense, shake your head, show the pearly whites and blah blah blah! Weird thing is that so many think she is doing a great job????? Dreamers!
-
Happy, you do realise that if you collect $1320, you will have to out yourself to the NZ TAB, as you could be a money launderer, and might deserve reporting?
-
Kelvin and many of Arderns cohorts, have gone missing in action! How come Ardern always does the daily speeches and Hipkins and Megan Woods etc. never get a go? Thats right, they have been told to say nothing as they have bought into it!! Truth is that she has control over so many Sheep, that think shenhas done a great job for NZ! Reality is that the coalition has done a pathetic hob for NZ over the last 3 years. If you vote for this mob again, you deserve every bit of what you are going to get! What actually have they achieved so far??
-
Unfortunately, it doesnt appear that too many are worried about anything. Racing had a taxpayer bailout and they seem to think that everything is going to be rosey. Hope the Brodster is wrong for a change, but There is nothing that is being done that is giving enthusiasts any confidence that things are going to improve.
-
Lol, not my fault when the ipad changes what I write and I am typing quickly!! I was wondering what a Shelton Martha was? Are you challenging the Brodster to a spelling comp?
-
Shelton Martha?

Better name! Government Gotta Go! Wont say The breeding!

R.I.P harness racing!
-
It actually did show a fair bit of speed several times in The straight at Forbury! To be fair Denis O’Connell would be classified as a hobby driver, and His horses always perform better with a professional driver, no offence intended, Denis!!
-
Happy, thing is that Oz is far easier to place a horse and win races! Even though I am having trouble saying it, Averos Spitfire would win races, especially in South Australia, where the horses are absolutely donkeys! Horses that are driven with a sit in NZ, go to Oz and can lead up and still win! Some of our horses do improve by going over there and with different training methods, however Oz horses on average are just not as good as ours, so it is far easier to win!!
-
The media has been bought by the govt. by the money the taxpayer has given them. They are scared to ask the right questions and it is a known fact that she only has the journalists that are going to be KIND!!!!!!
-
Heard from a couple of reliable sources that he has gone!!!! Got off the sinking ship, obviously not a great fan of the ones that need To be gone!!!!
-
Just watched Vigaroso bolt in at Bendigo. Won like a horse that is capable of winning heaps more in Oz. Was a reasonable battler for Denis O’Connell, racing mainly at Forbury for fair results! Wonder what sort of money they wouldve paid for a horse like this nowadays?
-
Word has it that Greg O’Connor has resigned from the job of promotions at Addington, which was extremely brief! Can not confirm but I am sure someone can? The wrong person has gone i would say, as there are several that harness definitely need to have gone ASAP!
-
Unfortunately for harness racing in NZ, he just hasnt got the ability to be constructive! I will take it that everyone agrees with me, unless someone posts something that says otherwise!! Ken Spicer, we understand that you appointed Mr Holden to this important position, and word is that it is only because he was a cobber of yours!!! If that is the reason Mr Spicer, you should resign your current position as it is totally dishonest, and should not be tolerated by Harness Racing NZ! Has Mr Holden got a vote of confidence from anyone apart from Mr Spicer?

Ardern says that she didnt know about the 4 positives until about 4 pm On Tuesday! Winston new about it at around 3pm on Tuesday, before Ardern??? John Tamihere knew on Monday, so dont believe that Ardern didnt know about it before she says!! She says that she wanted a transparent government!!! i say BS, you can not trust anything she says!!!! This useless government couldnt organise a piss up at a brewery! Get rid of them and bring in a government that has business experience!
