Honestjohn Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Latest is a series of thugs, purvis Anderson Alford. Common denominator..... Woodend I know they lease boxes of other trainers but these trainers need to police these thugs. Plus the trainer down south who is on bail. Dogs will be the first to go with drugs etc. Following behind them will be harness. What will you do then???? Hj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of pressure on the ypung ones in harness to make a living nowadays out of harness racing! Got nothing to do with the location, it is just that many of the young ones are seeing the beach at Woodend as being great for horse training!

Newmarket Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 What’s the goss on this one? Also what happened at Westport, I’m missing out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the galah Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 i see the chiefs mate,peter profit has a headline suggesting the victim of the assault is no longer licensed.That is the case if you check on his name.Obviously it has impacted him significantly for that to be the case.Hopefully he doesn't let the incident define what he can and can't do,life or industry wise. You know whether people like it or not,honest john does have a point. A lot of trouble does come from the woodend based trainers. It certainly must be very annoying for others who train there to see the small area where they base themselves again tarnished. Like i have said,thats the reality. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hj I see it got some coverage in the paper.. the headline being "harness trainer facing assault charge" It says in the article the RIB confirmed they are investigating the matter.

Hj Beam me up Scotty.purvis parents have owned a lot of horses over the years I've noticed.theres is no excuse for violence even when you feel someone has committed a crime against you or fucked your partner or your ex screws you over with your children and a lot worse things.these end up in murder in a lot of cases.doing anything gets you know where except more trouble.matt Purvis must go to jail for at least 3 months for such a assault causing bodily harm and the victim not being able to earn a income and injuries and not being licenced anymore.hrnz rib have to set a example that this behaviour no matter what is completely unacceptable.he must get 1 year or more ban from NZ trots anything less is sending the wrong message Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
