What a silly thing to say! If you put a winning ticket in a self service machine with a collect of over $1000 do you really believe it will allow you to split the winnings into vouchers less than $1000?????? Dreaming Jonesy!! They want total control as to who is offloading and who is winning, not to do with money laundering!!!

And you don’t think that the TAB hasn’t worked that one out? You present a ticket for over $1000 to collect and they will have it that you have to identify yourself! There is no difference to having to present a damn card or your TAB account they both are one and the same, identifying someone who has placed a bet and got a collect from gambling and giving the country TAX! The TAB/Govt. Will be monitoring everyone that has good collects and make good money from gambling, and we can’t have that now can we, so we need to chop their legs off and stop them from winning or tax them! It is all about control Tonka, just another way to control the people!!! Are the Casinos going to have to provide cards to all their clients at the tables and pokies? Just a load of bollocks!!

Tonkatime, you clearly work for the TAB! So you are telling the TAB / NZ Government who is collecting $1000? What the hell has it got to do with the NZ government/ TAB as to who is collecting winnings from gambling at such a pathetic amount??? Do you need a card to put more than a $1000 on Tonkatime? Either way Tonkatime it surely is a breach of ones privacy, when everything else the government departments won’t tell you anything without stating the “privacy act”!!!!!! RITA stage ent says either a Punters Pass(card) or your TAB account no. So not sure what point you are making Tonka either way it is wrong!!!!!,

It would be the last card that I ever had!!!!!! No way I would ever be a member of a loser party!!

Don’t qualify for seniors card, Always my 18 ID card!

Am I able to bet sleepers rather than cash, and will I still need to present my punters card to be able to bet or collect??

Newmarket, your best work yet!

Happy, jumps races are far better to watch than flat Gallops racing! Most galloping Racing is a bore fest compared to Harness!

Newmarket, I am always on the money, you know that!!! If someone does pay over 200k for her, they will not be in the money! All you can do is win, but she is a rising 4 year old Auckland Reactor mare, and no big races around the corner for her here. Yesterday she did very little work, sat in the trail and won over 2000m in a winning mile rate outside of 2.0 minutes, and you think she is worth over 200k? She has not beaten anything of any ability in either of her starts and have had easy runs both starts! We are both entitled to our own opinions and that is the beauty of it Newmarket! Time will tell whether she is worth the 200k plus that you think she is. I believe that Brodie will be on the money though!

I certainly will have more time on my hands Tonka, as there will be many of the bigger investors in NZ just give the punting away! Just another nail in the coffin for NZ racing, but then many making the decisions just don’t care!

They would be more constructive if they protested about the rights of punters being able to put on $1000 or collect $1000 without having to present a damn punters card! This is a breach of the privacy act that everyone quotes!!!! If there weren’t jumps races, many thoroughbred horses would be put down earlier!

Gumboots! Infirmary?

Butt, no offence intended

“The NailMan” Brad Williamson “The Behind” Kimberley Butt The PeelMan” Blair Orange ”Sit Back” Brendan McLellan “The Restricted” Brodie “McLovin” Andrew Fitzgerald

That is very cruel Ranga, I am quite upset that you say I was a wee bit over weight! Was a great ad though!!

Newmarket, leave it, Mark is a good fellah and doesn’t deserve shit on here!!!!!!!

JimmyCurtin would be the Colonel

“Blue” Mark Purdon, please none for Nat, as that could be libellous!

As long as it isn’t Aaron White, as he will only be able to say “the city of shakes” and would need to rename our drivers down here! I am sure he could come up with plenty but we don’t need that crap down here.

Let’s not go into any details on here in respect to Mark, who did a bloody great job for us all commentating in Canterbury. We were very very lucky to have him and unfortunately we are going to be losing him. I am sure Matt Cross will do a great job if he is afforded the opportunity!

Shhhh!!

Hunter, don’t do a MH on here! Secret squirrel!

It was extremely dense for many races and as I say on a very tight track, and still not called off! The abandonment at Addington was unnecessary and many trainers, drivers and owners were extremely annoyed! They have races on nights that had thicker fog and no accidents as far as I am aware because of fog, so in hindsight they should’ve carried on!!!!

Johnny, yes no one knows the truth apart from the ones accused! What the police and RIU have have as evidence I am not sure about, but there is a difference between fixing races and discussing tactics I would’ve thought! What I wish would happen is that the evidence of race fixing etc. is put up now as it is now becoming less than funny with what is going on! The RIU would have buggerall money to cover the innocents legal costs and I know that the police certainly won’t as I believe they ar out of their depth on this one!

Would not know Ranga, I don’t associate with those circles sorry! What I do know is that there are many people that are paying huge lawyers bills and feel that they have done nothing wrong! If this is the case why on earth should they be having to pay out for false charges? If there is evidence then it should be put up now rather than delaying, time after time!
