Brodie people are having there say just like you have for god knows how long let them do that 

Mehe why do you have this obsession with Brodie?  Your post is no more than a troll post - how does he stop anyone from having their say on BOAY?  The only person who has the functionality to do that is the Chief Stipe.

My obsession with Brodie oh I can tell you there is no obsession what so ever

But do you think it's alright for him to jump on to every thread and say the same thing every day 

You backed him up and he thought it was exams and carried it on 

He is going on about it only killing  the elder people and people with underlying conditions we were told that from day one 

Now can we go back to what the thread is about

The chances of anyone transferring Covid19 to some other catcher is very small.

Time NZ got on with life and stop worrying about what others are doing.

If you are that scared of catching any virus, then stay at home and never come out.

Reality is that the decision to lockdown as long as this is going to kill a damn site more people than greyhound people catching their greyhounds.

When Harness comes back Are all the drivers going to be two metres apart in a race??
No they aren’t because it is not possible!!!

I know plenty will have a crack at the Brodster, but FFS why are so many so scared of something that has not killed a single person With reasonable health in NZ????

You are dead right mate. Couldn't agree more. 

The point I was making was that the sneaky buggers (Trackside TV production) are trying their hardest to protect their doggy friends, from any potential fallout from viewers maybe wanting to dob in other people. 

Very much in similar fashion as to how Addington club officials stuck up notices requesting that no videos obtained oncourse were posted to social media. This was during their last race meeting. 

I get it. I understand it... Trying to put out fires before the fires start. For want of a better term... it did like a decent blaze there today!

The Brodster is the Roberto Duran of Bit of a yarn posters. He just keeps coming. You  may think you have him on the ropes sometimes,but he just keeps coming at you anyway.  When he's knocked to the floor,and you think you have got him,he gets back up and keeps coming.  The Brodster plays a fair game and  doesn't resort to personal insults either.

To be fair Brodie does chuck a few uppercuts at times when someone starts attacking!

The beauty of Bit Of A Yarn is that Chief is very fair.

Yes I am like a Rottweiler at times, if I feel strongly about something and that is pretty often.

No idea who the ones that attack the Brodster are, however I am aware that some just do it just because they want to get under my skin.

Ranga, has a crack very often, but I allow for the fact that he has an identity crisis and he is quite clever often.

No idea  who this Holy Crap is and he is just a Socialist sheep,who is very easily led and you can see how people can become members of cults!

Here he is on a trotting site trying to excel the virtues of Socialism when he has stated that he doesn’t even invest on harness but spends all of his Socialist money on Australian gallops? Go figure.

Mehe, we’ll he has come out of the blue, not overly productive with his comments and digs, but then he is possibly trying to make up for other inadequacies.

How would Harness people like it if the greyhound people potted harness racing to the fun police due to the fact that the drivers on the horses were not racing 2 metres apart?

Unfortunately this time in our lives has become very difficult and is going to become even more dire for many, so we just have to try and get along to make things better!

As Ms. Ardern keeps saying “Be Kind”

Seems like a fair enough fellow. Just because he doesn't agree with you doesn't mean he is a sheep. Is he not allowed to spend his money where he wants?

Harness and gallops don't have the situation after the winning post though. Why don't they show it on the TV? Bill has not said yet, nor how effective it is. I thought if you couldn't adhere to the rules at Level 3 you couldn't open? I must be wrong. 

However, I don't really care about the social distancing as I don't think this method will stop it in the big picture of things but if there are rules to be followed then I don't think one particular area should be exempt. Maybe the greyhounds should have waited until Level 2.

Happy, his rants and quotes about inequality is puke material.

There are these people around the world that keep blaming others for various things and think that it is everyone else’s problem but their own for their situation.

If you want to live in a dictatorship then I wish you luck there!

I understand where you stand on the matter and that is your prerogative, however you haven’t got the chip on your shoulder and preaching Bs!!

Happy, what is your comment in regards to our a prime minister’s speech at the International Socialist youth gathering?

Is that what you want leading our country??

Please please don't wake the pasta up.  It'll get me going again and then another Topic gets hijacked.  Then I'll have to advertise for a moderator who probably won't be as kind as me.

With regard to the Covid Level rules, which seem to more grey than black and white and made up on the fly, why haven't the codes with the help of the RIU come out with a statement on penalties for any rule breaches?

The Thoroughbred guys in OZ have been quick and hard on offenders.  One of Gai Waterhouses staff got a month for hugging another staff member after they won the Golden Slipper!!

Straight up, if he rants, then you rant, Brodster.?

It is not, and never will be, a dictatorship. 

It is firm, maybe even temporarily controlling, leadership but that is ok for a short time in an emergency situation.

Ravioli isn't stirring trouble. He is just giving his view. Some would say you are preaching BS but that is their view only.

Obama was labelled a socialist. Trump is a capitalist. It goes around in circles, philosophies get voted in and out of power because people can't stand one approach too long. That is why 3 terms in NZ is enough for the people. Ardern is a lefty, so what, she was voted in after NZ had had enough of National and couldn't stomach the thought of Bill English. if New Zealanders can't handle it then she will be gone. Just like the shed at Manukau today... (keeping on topic ?) Politics is also about personality because the issues in any depth are beyond most people's interest levels. Unfortunately for you and your views, Simon Bridges hardly rates in the personality stakes.

Ok We have probably thrashed this out to death Happy and obviously it is a very divisive thing this Virus clearly, and Chief has had enough lol.

We are being dictated to Happy, as the police have been brought in to police and charge people!

Holy Crap, is preaching Socialist BS from speeches!

Finally, I want the best for NZ and its people. What we are getting is a prime minister that is trying to get her ideals thru by use of this Covid19, she has stated this Happy!

She has clearly stated that this pandemic is an opportunity to close the gap of inequality! 
That is just BS, and rather than try and bankrupt people by making them poorer, she should be encouraging the poorer people to improve themselves, but that is not the way of Socialism is it?

Very interesting times Happy.

I said don't start.....

I understand what Brodie is saying when he talks of a dictatorship.  I call what we are experiencing at the moment as totalitarianism.

We are supposed to be living in a parliamentary democracy.  This crisis is NOT the Battle of Britain in WW2 nor WW3.  Adern suspended Parliament and sidelined her Cabinet and subsequently gagged them.  She with the assistance of one other, her sidekick Robertson, passed executive orders sidestepping the normal checks and balances of our political system.  It has been done before by Muldoon in 1984 and the Labour Government that was defeated in1990.

People need to know this.

Adern has abused her position and possibly acted illegally.  She could be excused for that behavior if she had got things right.  I don't believe she has.  

Back on topic - the Police are arresting people for being on the beach but the RIU are not charging a dog handler at the greyhounds for spitting.  Go figure.  Have the RIU gone soft?  Have they all been made redundant?  Or are they stuck in hedges?

Whiplash, if you are calling the Brodster Uncle Scrooge then you are well off the mark big time.

I spend hundreds of thousands of dollars each and every year on things!

 My point is that communism is all about control and Arderns ideology is that people shouldn’t have wealth or they are able to. Are their own decisions.

To close the inequality gap in wealth she would rather ensure that the people with wealth loses their wealth rather than the poor increase their wealth thru their own efforts!

It is the Communist way.

I am not interested in how many $100s of thousands of dollars you have or your bigoted views on "poor people" brodie, I also couldn't give a flying fuck about politics , socialism or communism, I was just laughing at your timing,

With so many people affected by this economic crisis thought it was bad timing to get on the soapbox to benefit bash when so many people are having to seek assistance through no fault of their own at the moment,

You should run for parliament brodie! I am not offended or doubting anything you say ! I am just amused at your timing,

You called the Brodster “Uncle Scrooge” for some strange reason, that is why I pointed out that your name calling was very inaccurate!!!

Not too sure how you got that I was benefit bashing?

What I was clearly pointing out Whiplash, was that Ardern wants to reduce the so-called inequality of wealth in NZ by making the wealthy not so wealth so that the gap is closed.

Surely, it would be far more productive for the country to encourage the people without as much wealth, to increase their personal wealth, whether they were working or on welfare?

It is the Communist way though to control the people is to have them reliant on government!

As for running for parliament, give it a miss as I am not one to have my nose in the public trough!

I do believe I would certainly be a helluva lot better than every single one of the current government bar none!!!

Hey Brodie soon no totes and then no retail outlets for you to cash in your betting vouchers. Forcing you online and out of the game.They are going to beat you and have got you by the balls on this one.

Unfortunately they are taking them selves out of the game as well.

Nowornever, the NZ TAB won’t beat the Brodster!

Personally don’t need to be investing on Harness Racing, it is the cha,Lange that I used to enjoy.

Fortunately financially have everything well and truly covered by good investment and if they only have online wagering then the industry will be in dire straights and won’t survive.

Do not think the 70 million will be a god send as 20 mill was for the artificial tracks.

Think they owe plenty to Banks and so there certainly won’t be much left over to pay the clubs for racing and the still massive salaries of the overpaid bigwigs.

What they need to survive is an attractive package to attract wagering and to have that they need to have horses and I can see ownership numbers dwindling significantly unfortunately.

If Harness disappears then maybe the dishlkckers are an option?  Yeah/Nah!
