Horrible indeed and there are nutters and radicalists In every country! Tragedy and things are going to be different for awhile, including airport security and other public functions tighter security! Problem is that multiculturalism is a major problem worldwide and needs addressing! Wont go into details here but we all know that governments have a lot to do with the problems that are occurring worldwide and not just ChCh today!

Totslly agree Double R. Problem caused by the multi racial amalgamation throughout the world! Then this government wants to bring so-called refugees in from other countries that will cause more problems and offer our country nothing positive.

The Galah, totally agree 110% and not sure who gets much out of Apart from The AllStar worshippers! There are some very good articles on it and always enjoy when they debate controversial items! Personally can not see the point of reviewing the group races, or previewing the group races as it is always blue and silver star BS! Personally don’t mind either of the presenters, but believe that for the show to be more popular, they need to revamp it to be more interesting for the average enthusiast! Why don’t they bring in people from the industry to interview and have brief background stories more? Preview races coming up that don’t include the AllStars because that is too boring when they are stinking hot favourites to be! It is unfortunate that the group races are so dominated by the one stable, but it is a major turnoff, most of us all know that! Nothing personal GO or MG

CrossCodes, we are all waiting on you to post something worthwhile! Probably waiting for eternity!

Shad, you are dead right! The stupid whip rule once again! Young Hayley Clarke, was having her 88th drive on a horse over several seasons, and on a pretty average horse! She runs 3rd after giving it an easy run on the pegs! She would be over the moon to have finally run a place in a race, but the Stipes following the blatantly stupid rule fines her $200 for not excessive use of the whip but USING THE WHIP MORE THAN PERMITED!!! HRNZ grow some balls and alter the rule back to what is was before! SAFE dint have a problem with the previous rule, until you panicked and thought that you would semi follow the Ozzie’s and they backtracked and now they can hammer as much as they like! Most of us know that it is STUPID so alter it back and fine drivers that do go overboard and carve up horses with the whip, and not you g girls having their 88th drive without previously running a place. Surefire way of losing young people to the industry by hammering them financially for wanting to win!

Happy is good? There are many positives in harness Harewood I acknowledge that! Just when I see something wrong or an injustice or something that needs improvement I will point it out, as everyone knows! If I mention it enough I am hoping there may be changes made! You are a fair man Harewood!!

How come Harewood? Because I just tell it the way it is! Reality is that on a normal day with those AllStar horses and Mark Purdon and co. Oncourse, most of them would’ve won! Never heard of out Brodied before but I will accept that, if it means that I didn’t bother having an investment all day! Look, I can post some good news stories if everyone wants, and no problem with that, but it will not improve Harness Racing! What Brodie and several others on here post are things that are relevant to harness racing currently, and need addressing! If you think that everything is rosey with harness racing then you have got your head in the sand. Harewood, if you want me to stop posting, then I can certainly do that, and I will leave you with the ones from the Darkside that have come over to try and bugger this site! Of course I repeat myself many times over certain topics, and there are reasons for this!

Basil, I can assure you that I will make a lot more money backing something at $3 rather than 6 $1.20 stinkers!!!

Only because the finishing touches weren’t applied!

Greg, you are only on here to stir which you have shown from day one! Go away!

The protagonists have come from the Darkside more recently, because that site is so quiet, and they have trouble operating to a significant level! If youbdont like it here, then go back to where you came from, and stir them up!

CrossCodes you still have a couple of your mates trying to ruin the site like they did on the Darkside! So The AllStars and myself are to be blame now? It is your opportunity to start a topic then CrossCodes, or is that not your forte?

To be fair, it appears that it has done some harm to the fellah holding the yellow sign!

Roman, what a load of crap trap! Of course I harp on about fairness! Brodie, stands for total fairness and everyone knows that apart from the Brodster stirrers! Cant see where I took the Mickey out of you? It is not Brodie’s way or the highway at all, I express my opinion that of course I think is correct and on the money! If I am wrong then I will say so, but normally aren’t unless you can point out where I am? Appreciate any comments Roman, and nothing personal at all!

Don’t WANK on about anything Roman! Forums are your opportunity to express your point of view! If you don’t want to read or comment then it is your perogative! Just expressed an opinion that the racing was good today and seemed much fairer! If you have an opinion on that, then express it but I take offence with you saying that I was doing something when I wasn’t!!!

What a great day of racing at Invercargill today, and haven’t even had a go! Just fantastic to see racing back at its best, without the dominance of one stable! It is a puzzle as to why the stable is not winning today?? Maybe the finishing touches have not been applied today!

Hi Robert What do you mean? Ranga got his $2.90 from if he put $1 on the four winners all up would’ve given him the equivalent of $2.90! Ranga is very easily pleased and thinks that he will make a killing by all upping on $1.10 stinking hot favourites!!

How on earth does it affect me then Greg???? It affects other trainers and owners and the TAB! Of course they are the best, that is the damn point many are trying to make! It is to the detriment of harness racing big time! If punters get a sense of satisfaction out of backing horses that pay $1.10 to win, then they are easily satisfied! You say that the TAB makes heaps out of the favourites winning! You are totally incorrect There Greg, ask the Bookmakers about that one! The TAB has a much reduced turnover on the tote nowadays on races that the AllStars have runners in, so are not making as much as they would be!

Personally don’t think that Nat Rasmussen did anything wrong with the whip on Ultimate Sniper! Didnt seem to be hitting the horse hard at all and she was only tapping with the left hand! Nat has been a repeat offender when it comes to the excessive whip rule, so she obviously doesn’t give a toss about the rule, especially in the bigger stake races! Nat should not have been fined and/or suspended for trying to win a major stakes race , and what she did certainly wasn’t excessive! Change the rule Harness NZ as it is blatantly stupid having a no. involved!!!

Ranga, you are on Some serious stuff! Does anyone out there understand what this fellah is on about? He is definitely a unique individual!

Geez you talk shit!

FFS Greg or whoever? Why on earth would I be jealous of the AllStars Stable? What they do doesn’t affect me whatsoever, what does affect, is the problems that they are currently causing harness racing In Australasia! I don’t invest when there are AllStars horses involved as I know they are going to fill 2 of the placings! Why would anyone bother as it is a waste of time!

Ranga, I can see why you wouldn’t be a restricted punter! If,you think that those 4 winners were certainties to win when there were other AllStar horses I’m the races, then you are deluded! Ultimate Sniper was lucky to win as Jesse Duke nearly beat it, and it sat parked! Feel free Ranga to all up on The AllStars horses, you will end up in bankruptcy court!

You are kid ding? You are saying that punters would be all upping on $1.10 favourites???? Is it any wonder that people say that punting is a mugs game Ranga!!! You will go broke if you keep doing this without doubt! Only takes one miss and you are out! What an absolute waste of time punting on stinking hot favourites like that!!!

How do you get $2.90?
