Thomass Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Just how RANK has the Trackside Thoroughbred product become?? ZERO atmosphere, no course presenters, virtually ZERO audio of the great sport of Kings... They could have adopted the FAKE NEWS crowd audio that other World Wide sports of Football and Aussie League inserted... ...but as hopeless is hopeless does....ZERO, NADA...NOTHING They accidentally retained...occasionally that is...of the Barrier gate microphone...that's f in all Imagine a Casino pokie machine with ZERO sound ZERO flashing lights...ZERO excitement? Up close, a Thoroughbred horse race is full of noise...Jockeys complaining, hooves pounding, whips cracking, crowd yelling their ass's off... NZ Trackside...what paddy f in shot at Im pretty sure the old NZRB wanted to pay back the Thoroughbred Industry for complaining how useless and incompetent they were... And what a pay back...a PASSIONLESS, CLINICAL operating theatre like 'production' Then punishing us with ZERO personality types such as Sweeney and Rodley in a ZERO atmosphere studio F them 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Centaur Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Thomas you are on the ball here. I'll ask what the hell is Bernard Saundry doing to neutralize the sports betting crowd taking over the TAB. You are wrong about Rodley however. Racing needs the Rodleys, Popperwells etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomass Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 I'd say he knows he's powerless.... ..all he can do is promote his own outfit while realising the Sports crowd is getting the public behind them...who generally hate Racing... Post lockdown the sporting crowds were phenomenal while racing kept its minimalist approach alive and well... Aided and abetted by colourless media types...have you seen GET ON for example... Then watched old videos of Tan, Rodley et el. who got personality transplants from the Zombie museum...and a sense of humour from Play School? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weasel Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 GET ON is hilarious and informative. Love the show! Highlight of the week for this Mustelid. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomass Posted September 1, 2020 Author Share Posted September 1, 2020 You're right Ferret, there's something about the Oz style of humour that's more mature and dare I say it 'intelligent'... They can take the piss out of themselves and don't take it personally...as we appear to do here... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooncoin Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Long time between drinks T! That must have been some dip off the black sands Reginald Perrin!!🏊♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomass Posted September 1, 2020 Author Share Posted September 1, 2020 Mooner! Old Reg...what an outstanding show that was! Yep even though the black sands are a wee way away...I managed to get to Muriwai most days while maintaining the bubble me and the Princess were eternally in...btw don't park on any local footpaths there...the yocals go even more feral? Drinks you say...if I consumed a kilo of onions right now they'd be pickled within a blink.. How did your lockdown go...debauched? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomass Posted September 2, 2020 Author Share Posted September 2, 2020 Just witness a race Trackside broadcast from Busan.... Gate noise, hooves pounding, Jockeys shouting, whips cracking... ...all easily slipped into the pathetic NZ product... ...now DEFUNCT... ...lifeless soulless passionless NZ Thoroughbred Racing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomass Posted September 2, 2020 Author Share Posted September 2, 2020 Imagine hearing a screaming Jockey....possibly channeling a Banshee Indian.... ...but it's called ATMOSPHERE Trackside....wake the f up Even the old time commentators used to hang a microphone outside their Comms box in Ye olde days....gets a bit of f in ATMOSPHERE going for the listeners juices to flow...

Thomass Posted September 3, 2020 Author Share Posted September 3, 2020 Well Wal I've got a high pitched voice like a girl...but not that hi... The last time I heard a scream that concerted and continuous was when I took the Princess on a treasure hunt through the dunes of Muriwai's black sands... 2 City slickers from Auckland had absconded lockdown and were doing what you do so well to the Queens Engrish... The Princess started screaming uncontrollably as well...just like a bunch of Jockeys in a relly tight finish... And that's what's missing Wal...have you ever heard that?

Thomass Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 Oh c'est la f in vie for vino I say...had a cheeky number from there just the other night... ...as a punter always looking for value...not only was the Princess value for money when I rescued her from a hard life... ...but I'm currently into Montepulchianno D'Bruzzia 2019 as a get moi out when a day on the punt went west... Cheap but not nasty...with the added value of 2 bottles in one! Viva f in Italia I say... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
