Basil Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 18 hours ago, Brodie said: Basil, you have clearly come on just to take the piss! you have to be have been drinking all day for you to have written that crap! Mr Yips should’ve been chucked out in 2 minutes! The horse did not complete the distance by running inside the markers, he checked other horses and changed the order of the horses order! Blatant ridiculous decision by Stipes that acted irrationally, and it is not the first time as we all know! You can say what you want Basil as you have some connection with officialdom even though you will deny it! If you haven’t and you beleive what you have said then your thought patterns are seriously misguided! Crikey! According to your various accusations Brodie, I'm an employee of the TAB, a member of the NZRB, an HRNZ insider, connected to the All Stars, and now, apparently, tied in with "officialdom" (so presumably a stipe). I'm obviously one busy boy — god knows how I find time to do my day job...? Anyway, separating the substantive claims from the ad hominen insults, it turns out the former are in fact all wrong. By running off the track and back on, Mr Yips more than completed the distance (unless you've somehow managed to repeal the laws of physics). Although there was a general tightening of the field as Mr Yips came back onto the course proper, there were no serious checks in the usual sense of the word. And the horses closest to the action arguably ended up in better positions (1-1 rather than 3 back inner, and 4 back outer rather than 4 back inner). Sure, at first glance it didn't look great. But a sober examination of the facts suggests the stipes' decision was at least defensible. We can argue until the cows come home about whether or not it was correct, but describing it as pathetic, shameful, irrational etc is a significant over-reaction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFS Basil, where have I said you were on the NZRB or connected to the AllStars? As Taku has said everyone including Tony H doesn’t know how the horse wasn’t chucked out! Waste of time debating with you as you are a stirrer! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsenic Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Like I said before intelligence isn’t part of the criteria when applying for the RIU . Stupidity is the first thing they look for in applicants. People with a “ Brain “ need not apply 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenic Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 The RIU certainly have a good resume.

Feel The Fritter Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 The Greyhound code are "Blackmailed" into signing a Social Media clause which forbids them from saying anything the powers in charge don't want them to say. Is this the case with the other two codes ? In the instance that a previous post of Yankiwis pointed out the Head stipe Whiterod failed to deal with the dog that was in the video and clarely in breech of a rule "Marring". I see on looking back to the report in Question it has been altered to say that it is been referred to the Judiciary. What happens from here? Why did the over all boss of the R.I.U. Godber not question this decision and offer an explanation, after all it has been talk around the traps for a long time of Whiterods Integrity when it comes to dealing with a certain large trainer... The trotting incident Brodie quite rightly is passionate about needs to be revisited and an explanation given...Maybe Godber should go back to cooking sausages as he sure as hell ain't performing with the Integrity needed to satisfy us all that have to comply to his whims. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brodie is all about fairness as everyone knows! Need something to do as I have quite a bit of spare time on my hands since my restrictions and piss poor odds from the TAB have been brought in! Maybe someone could start a petition wanting “The Brodster” as chief Stipe, and I guarantee I would do an unbelievably great job, certainly far better than what is being achieved at the moment! To be fair it wouldn’t be that difficult, commonsense could be my middle name! Edited December 17, 2018 by Brodie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a bloody joke and unless the cycle of incompetent abuse is curtailed it will fester...We are talking about an industry that starts with our children and entails so much input from decent people only to be ruined by the current crew of deceipt that is lacking in what it takes... . This is a position of the Highest Integrity and it takes special people to run it honestly. I believe there are posters on here that would fit the position that is required even if only to show that it can be done with INTEGRITY. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can someone tell me who GODber is directly answerable to please... Glenda Hughes INDEPENDENT CHAIRPERSON | BA Glenda Hughes has 25 years experience in management, leadership and corporate governance. She is owner and managing director of a communications and media strategy company, Glenda Hughes Communication, which specialises in strategic management, public change programmes, government relations, media liaison, marketing, promotions and launches. Ms Hughes has significant board and sporting experience through her service on the boards of charitable trusts and the Parole Board. She is a member of the Institute of Directors and has represented a number of sports teams, including New Zealand at the Commonwealth Games in 1982. In addition to her Bachelor of Arts degree, she holds a post graduate paper in creative non-fiction writing, a certificate in athletic career management and has completed papers for a Diploma in business administration, communications and dispute resolution. I think Godber would report directly to the Racing Board. Perhaps Glenda could confirm this and arrange for an Independant Transparent probe into the goings on with the Racing Integrity Unit.
