Newmarket Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 The odd time i have a bet on the dogs, i usually watch on tv. This guy Darryl today at Hatrick, how bad is he. You have no idea what is in front, he says something begins well, then goes thru test of field, race is finished, nothing in front like he stated?? What a joke 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cichlid Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 A Race meeting coming up soon at Palmerston Newmarket with a heap of Callers present..Put it in your Race tracker perhaps.? Must agree Darryl has had an off day with a few races today .He usually does a fine job. Let's put it down to his fan club forgetting the sausage rolls :) 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cockyaleg Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Totally agree Yan. Bring back Brian, please. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cichlid Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Would be good to have him back starting with the Race Callers day at Palmy coming soon. Sad but one of his calls that he will always be remembered by was the Night at Hatrick with Liz Wheelan in tow he called a sprint race. Every one has an off day every now and then.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 An absolutely fantastic caller easy on the ear and not screaming down the microphone. One silly mistake...... Hope Brian is doing well. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lad27 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Best one was when Trev was telling everyone what a marvellious job the window cleaner does at addington. Then boom the race started ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but to be honest at least old Trev you can understand what he is saying, but ok his eyes are shit. Darryl just mumbles in his call, very hard to clearly understand which dog he is calling. I know its a hard game, but just call who is in the front few, why bother going back thru the field, we all know 99% of the time where div payers will be half way thru race. No good calling a dog that begins fast, only to be told its last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Girl Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Is he calling at the Commentators day at Palmy next month? If so that's still an opening of a door for him that I thought had been slammed shut, must've got the all clear from certain people in positions of power broadcasting wise, and I'm sure there were some others that wouldn't have been keen to let him in, so maybe theres hope yet for a Brian comeback..? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CrossCodes Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 How will Rowsanowski feel about this? Since he was the one who set Brian up in the first place so he could get his much wanted C.D gig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know what you mean Aqua re suspicions, I know nothing, I'm just saying they dont let anyone loose on the air so who has approved it? Someone in a position such as Head of Broadcasting perhaps, or maybe Roso himself has approved it? Does he have that much say? or as CrossCodes has said would Roso himself even want to see the return of Brian? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 There is a list of the commentators attending the Palmerston North meeting in the latest magazine. There's no Brian Martin included on that page? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aquaman Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 And how would you know he was pissed, and his name is Brian, not brain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yankiwi Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Clearly Brian had bigger plans for himself, a front row seat in the Addington calling tower, well away from the crooked officials in CD. http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/8086244/Impaired-greyhounds-caller-gets-collared "Neal said the Racing Integrity Unit had the power to replace any official if they were impaired, as Martin clearly was. Video replays confirm Martin's speech was slurred and he took so long to go through one field, the winner had crossed the line before he called it." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Girl Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Yes I suppose when you look at it like that Brian was almost a victim of his own success because, as stated above, that would've been just another day at the office for Trev! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
