Brodie

Thought so Ranga so they are telling Porkies! Why have they lied to us? Racing Integrity? Yeah Nah!! Has anyone got any explanation how this happens?

Waiting for the replay to see who is telling porkies? Does anyone agree with the Stipes or is Brodie on the money as usual?

They must be kidding how did 8 start from 5? Think wrong drivers on wrong horse surely?

They say that they started from the wrong positions? Looking forward to the replay cos it looked like the drivers were on the wrong horses and started from the right position? Looked like no. 5 started from 5 and sat parked and 8 was back on the fence. Am I wrong ?

Ahh they have now picked this uP! Shocking!

Just watched race 2 at Addington. How has this happened? Since when is Robbie Close, John Morrison?? The info had Robbie Close driving Baileys Diamond no.5 and sat parked the whole way with Matt Cross calling it Best Trio!!!!!! It was no. 5 which was Baileys Diamond. No. 8 Best Trio was back on the fence and was meant to be John Morrison driving it but it was ROBBIE CLOSE!!!! This has to be one of the biggest stuff ups I have ever seen and how come the STIPES didnt pick this up??????! This is an absolute SHOCKER and heads should roll for this and the STIPES want to charge juniors for doing nothing??????

Robalan, seem you are an expert on rules, can you kindly advise me of why he was charged in the first place? What actually did he do wrong that the Stipes thought he did so wrong? He maintained his line which anyone with half a brain would acknowledge is the right thing to do! Why would he want to be pushed onto the markers when his better position was the running line surely? They charged the wrong man!!

The Racing Integrity Board needs to be renamed, as once again they nave shown that they have no integrity!! Where is Breckon, or is he just another of these apathetic New Zealanders that just go with the flow???? This is just not right for the young Crawford

I have been watching the actions of the socalled NZ police in Wellington today. They should hang their heads in shame as they are abusing g the peaceful protesters . Chantelle Baker has been screening it live and you can see what ks actually happening. The NZ MEDIA are evil and will only show what they want to to keep the Ardern Communist supporters happy. It is a very very Black Day for democracy in NZ and for you pathetic bei gs that think that Ardern is concerned for you the. You are very deluded. All she had to do was meet with the protestors but she is an egotistical communist dictator and all this is going to do is fire people up even more. I now have much disdain for the NZ Police for their actions today.

If people still believe that this Pfizer shite is going to save them from hospitalisation and are more protected than the unjabbed, then they seriously need help! They have been conned big time and they shouldve been able to work this out by now! Seriously, everything that Bloomfield, Ardern and cohorts have said has not been accurate, so why listen to the clowns? Even now Bloomfield had to apologize for over estimating the ability to test PCR tests? None of their decisions over the past year makes sense! We have 20k daily cases of a cold and yet she is opening up the border and yet when the no.s were low we were locked up?????? Absolute lunacy and this incompetent bunch of losers need to go!

Just looking thru fields for this weeks meetings! Auckland Friday night has 8 races and average 7 horses per race. One race has 5 starters and many of the others not really worth the effort, especially for punters! The races are all got very good stake money but it is clearly evident that Auckland harness is in dire need of help to remain viable! Just not sure it can be rectified by the way things are going and the amount of debt it still holds! Horrible punting fields generally wont be attracting much interest from the punters that they need to be attracting, and that is the larger amount punters!!

As normal the stats that we are given is BS! The modellers said that there would be thousands of deaths from Omicron by noW and yet not one has died due to Omicron! The departed have all had underlying conditions that is the reason for the death. Fact is that the scare tactics that Ardern, Bloomfield, Baker, Plonker and Wiles have adopted for the last 2 years have not worked on the intelligent. Most days I hear of people who have been jabbed now with health issues and yesterday heard of man under 58 years old had heart attack and now not amongst us. These issues are going to be ongoing for a long time unfortunately due to Pfizer

Mardy, what sport is HE into that you both like?

1. You are correct that I have not had any of that toxic shite injected into me, and never will. Know too many people with bad results from getting it in, with death probably being the worst. The Press this morning had a cardiologist stating that we should be worried about this Long Covid as it can cause heart attacks, strokes etc. Well I have news for this Cardiologist and it is that there are heaps of people who have heart issues now with heart issues and some have died. The truth is that it is not this Covid19 mild virus, it is this toxic Pfizer jabs that is doing it now and in the future. Interesting that you think Brodie isnt able to place bets at outlets! 2. Yes I dont bet on account too often, I am doing pretty well elsewhere, thankyou! 3. I do not bet as often as I used and not as much on as I would like however I can assure you that I still do well. It is not necessarily about the money but the fact that I want to beat them as they continue to put obstacles in front of the restricted punters.

It is just not right in the first place that Jordan got charged! He needed to stand up for his rights and if Breckon is still his employer, then he needs to front!! It is similar when Jeremy Markham got charged and shafted big time a couple of years or so ago for hitting the horse in front!! He was charged when he should not have been and the Stipes/judiciary were eventually found to be wrong and Jeremy not guilty! Yes mistakes are made but seriously to charge the young ones unnecessarily and then accept a guilty charge to save them money is just blatantly a very bad look for harness! HRNZ admit you stuffed up again and give the young bloke a break as he did absolutely nothing wrong!!! Why do you want to continue to drive the few young ones in the industry away with your stupid decisions????

Cos Blair has form and told them where to go awhile ago perhaps?

Do not think saving some money and pleading guilty is the way to go! If you are guilty then plead guilty, but if you are not to blame for what happened like in this case with young Jordan Crawford, then harness racing needs to do right by Jordan and admit that they were WRONG!!!! I would be more than happy to donate 10% of my profits to a fighting fund for drivers if the NZ TAB dropped my betting restrictions or at least raised the limit to something more workable!!!

Personally do not know anything really about young Jordan Crawford, except that he had worked for Breckon Farm according to google! If he is still there Breckon should be having a word to Gary Woodham who he is in horse ownership with and express what a load of Bull Shit this is! Breckon has clout in the harness racing industry I wouldve thought and if he was any sort of bloke needs to go into bat for his employee! Why are people in NZ just so submissive nowadays, just prepared to give in without any fight whatsoever? Brodie, “the voice of reason”

Eljay, if you feel you are not guilty, then you should always plead not guilty. To plead guilty to get a lesser sentence is BS, and that is why the country is in the shite due to the citizens just accepting the BS that is being continually spewed out by the most incompetent unqualified Prime Minister in world history. Never ever plead guilty to any charge when you are not guilty!!! Are you saying that if you get charged with a serious crime e.g murder, you should plead guilty just to get a lesser jail time, even if you were innocent? Abernathy shouldve fought the stupidest charge!!!!!

It is BS! Crawford should not pay any fine and appeal his decision to plead guilty! Not sure why Sailesh would have advised Jordan Crawford to plead guilty, as I wouldve fought it without doubt! There really are some stupid stupid rules in harness racing that make absolutely no sense and need CHANGING!!!!! Come on HRNZ you need to wake up and not fine this young bloke for doing nothing wrong and sets a precedent for this crap in the future!!!

Lol They were both hardly on Trackside, Robalan! They were on the wireless radio, no TAB accounts to be able to have a wager on when they were both commentating! You would have to be at a TAB agency to be able to get a bet on but you would need to be very quick lol

Depends how much you want on Ranga!

They don’t help your fixed odds bet unless you wait till the last minute though!
