Brodie Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Come on Trackside, get rid of the drone at Addington! it is horrendous and the way you used it in the first race at Addington tonight is ridiculous! Up you game, absolutely shocker, we want to see the race, not something from the moon!! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 (edited) I quite like the drone view, from a horseman’s perspective. Edited July 19 by Blackie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curious Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 Not a harness fan but just watched a race there. Love it. You can actually see the whole field most of the time and where horses are and how they are traveling. Great stuff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To show a standing start from the drone is crap! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newmarket Posted July 19 Share Posted July 19 I don’t mind drone, it’s only shown for a short time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why dont they use it more if it is so good? Personally can not see a single reason for using it, and when they show it at the start, mobiles and stands??

They've been doing it at Albion for our Big carnival too . will be in action again tonight. I think it is to show whether your horse is scoring up well possibly? , and is right on the gate or in Position at the start. They usually are , as drivers get fined if trying to 'Hang Back' , so can get cover early. It does show the runners getting through from the second row quite well as the start is made at dispatch point . But as you say you can tell that from the usual side view anyway quite well really. I quite like the camera work they do in NZ where the camera zooms in on the individual runner's, as the commentator calls their name as they go down the back straight the last time at a lot of your tracks in South Island. great work by camera man , and you can get some idea how your selections are going (travelling keen or not or whatever) , and some are about to improve around field , etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t have an issue with it , as long as they don’t do it at the finish as your lining up winning post. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally hate every bit of it and can not see any benefit at all? So because Brodie doesn’t like it, they will do it more often! They should do it for the NRL the whole game, and Rugby Games, Brilliant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forums are to discuss things, and put points of views across. Just because something is introduced doesnt mean it is for the better! Look what the citizens of NZ were subjected to for 6 years, does thst nesn we dhould have just accepted the mismanagement and lies? I say that we all need to speak up more and not accept everything that is dished up to us, that is why we are in the crap, Blackie. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
