  1. Mind you, Mau has gone a bit crazy lately. Funny thing about it for me, is Leos guest list???. Seems anybody that people dislike, got an invite.
  2. Pretty sure aus have more than 2 racing channels, so when they switch, tab take what is given, well now anyway.
  3. Love him or hate him, he is always in the news, bad or good.
  4. Addington meetings go from 33 to 77? Wow, thats gonna be exciting. Only really about 6 from 33 worth going to now, people will get sick of it.
  5. LMJ home in bed at 10pm?? Wow, some party.
  6. Nope, not last nite. Few harness at gloucester park ran couple minutes late, still had aus dogs both channels
  7. I felt sorry for them yesterday, so deposited with them. But here is what is really pissing me off. They have the dividend blinds on the left of screen, yep you guessed it, the gallop races on right handed tracks, and there are a few in aus, you can not see the finish??? WTF Also, now we just take aus feed, so when they swap races to another channel, we dont see the race? FFS, they are trying to entice us to bet, but come on, surely you could have an extra staff member to sort this shit out.
  8. Anyone know how the Big Bash went at HQ? I see Brian Tamaki left at 7-50pm, but he left his wife and daughter there? What sort of man would do that to his loved ones?? Obviously not a dress code, Leo wearing $20 hoodie from the warehouse. He got what he wanted thou, publicity, so good on him for that. Seems some very quiet bars around that area last night.
  9. Amazing that we are going down this track again. If nz stops nz punters betting with overseas operators, it will have to stop overseas punters betting with the nz tab. They will be worse off, silly pricks been down this road.
  10. How can Winston stop punters betting overseas? Just wont happen, pretty common knowledge that largest nz tab punters are based overseas, cant have it both ways. Trevor Wilkes, his job is safe???? Oh my, What can i say.
  11. At the time i could not understand why the TAB would fork out so much money for this. What did they gain, are they fuc%@n mad??? What has changed fixed odds, apart from a few more options, on a few more sports??? Where did they gain??? Jesus what a flop, put ya hands up those involved in this lemon.
  12. How the hell did you get that?
  13. Ok, while we are talking about John Vincent, here is a quick quiz. He drove a trotter when it won its first race, went on to win 7 races. Who was it?
  14. Ooops, your right.
  15. I did back it on show day one year, beat nostradamus paying double figures.
  16. Right oh, here we go. Best Collect. I got $2 of a treble up at Addington in the late 80s. Think i got about $10k from memory, ididnt work for 2 weeks, thought icould punt full time! Mmmm, didnt work to well. First leg winner was Miss Mischief, paid over $20, Brosnan drove 2nd leg, not sure name, and Ants drove Curling in last, led all way and fell in. Unlucky! Christ, so many. But when I was younger, one did piss me off for months. Greymouth harness meet, popped into local TAB, mate told me Terranium would bolt in. No idea what it was paying, put $5ew on it, and took $2 Trb, Besta Kara with Terranium with about 9 or 10 in last! Well, you guessed, one i didnt have won, trb paid about $10, pissed me off for months, thought about it each morning for ages. Why didnt i spend the extra $4 for field, I didnt have a bet for 3 weeks, just looked at my $5ew ticket that got me back around $125. Many times since same thing happened, used to it now? Driver-Ants Exciting-Steel Jaw, just remember the crowd buzzing a lap from home under a hold. Trainer-Richard Brosnan, gee i loved following his horses in the 80s, bloody consistent. Track- Mot & Add Tv- Lyell Creek Look forward to grass racing
  17. What did andronicus pay? Did it race on grass the next day?
  18. I take it you are taking the piss with J Keast??
  19. Only Molloy would get excited about his invite list. Christ, if there is a god, he must be pissing himself laffing over molloy and the destiny twins.
  20. I see the AMP show already cancelled for 2020. Already show week has lost a lot. Who knows .
  21. Has anyone really missed nz racing, all codes?
  22. Went poorly, thought melody belle poor as well. Should have finished closer with the run it had
  23. You what, i have been totally disappointed with TABs new fixed odds platform. WTF have they been paying for, nothing has changed, apart from a few more options on certain sports. Racing fixed odds are consistently unders, crap compared to rivals. But some of their promos have been crazy, here are a few examples. Promos on tennis after xmas, you placed a $10 sets bet on any game, regardless if you won or not, tab paid you a $1 for each ace your player served? Well hello, those earlier matches were easy to pick, take top seed player bet, sometimes these guys were serving 20,30 or more aces? I was getting heaps of bonus bets, trust me it was money for jam. Compare to aussie sites, they did similar, but only in selected games, mostly even matches??? Tab must have lost shitloads. Also had promo on darts, $50 on player sets betting, but gave you bonus bet on first leg checkout, I think the first few times i took it, checkouts were 76, 98 & 56. Tab stopped it shortly after? Just who is coming up with these offers?
  24. Strange, how much would it take to run? Must be plenty stuck in areas in lockdown listening to radio, even betting on aus racing today? They are killing off everything.
