Trump takes no responsibility for anything....his game is blame someone else. If they had been prepared, and don’t tell me it was Obama’s fault, the situation would not be as bad as it is now....berating Governors who are trying to do the best they can for their people and telling them “ they don’t need that many ventilators, or masks, or anything else...I know better...” is typical. And having fucking morons like Kushner and Pence “advising” is hardly a positive step....while someone who does know , Fauci gets marginalised by the day. Fucking joke the lot of them.

Perhaps it's time to reflect on what's happened , Trump bashing can get a little boring when basic facts are ignored , here's a couple . JANUARY 31 . Joe Biden's campaign said Friday the former vice president supports President Donald Trump's January 31 decision to ban foreign nationals who had been in China within the previous 14 days from entering the United States. THATS RIGHT JANUARY 31. Here's a real doozey , De Blasio ( New York Mayor) and New York City Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot took turns telling citizens in February and March that the virus was not as widespread as people thought. Data now show that the city is becoming the epicenter for the coronavirus, which has killed 883 New Yorkers. SHIT when you google De Blasio and his record on this issue it's distressing , a life costing failure so blaming Trump for the New York problem is totally unjustified .

Trackside radio should consider a play for Radio Sport
Rusty replied to WOODBINE's topic in Thoroughbred Cafe
What is this "Sport" that you mention? Is it an olden days term? Good point you have raised. Trackside radio are already paying for their current radio frequencies around the country however, so I couldn't see them wanting to pay additional coin, for something they already have? Maybe they could fine tune what they have, when life returns to normal transmission. Glen Larmer is an excellent sports host/commentator. His knowledge of such a vast array of sports is quite incredible, and a great asset. -
Trackside radio should consider a play for Radio Sport
Nukkledragga replied to WOODBINE's topic in Thoroughbred Cafe
The media skyline has already changed, every sport including racing can be accessed on the interweb quite easily , apart from drivers tuning in I dont see an audience for radio sports . -
why not?

JJ Flash replied to WOODBINE's topic in Thoroughbred Cafe
Methinks they would be more focused on capital raising than capital spending at this juncture, Radio Sport gone and lots of media in dire straights financially. they wont be the last as the media skyline changes very rapidly under current govt structures Greg -
This is a good watch

I grew up listening to Radio Sport and its link to cricket and rugby in particular. Before Trackside Radio started the TAB took a shareholding interest in Radio Hauraki in order to ensure the continued radio coverage of races. Why not think outside the square RITA and look at a play for Radio Sport?

THIS IS SERIOUS PEOPLE MAKE NO MISTAKE

Amazed at the press conference today that there was talk of a level 5. Why didn't they at the beginning of the pandemic start off with a Level 10 We are all f.....d Level 9 Not far away from being all f.....d Level 8 Prepare for the worse Level 7 I told you this would happen if you didn't self isolate. Level 6 Self isolate or else Level 5 Level 4 didn't work so i'm inventing some new levels. -
Thats already happening or so i have been told As the old saying goes"Actions speak louder than words" The simple fact is that Harness for whatever reasons does not attract younger folk in the same way TB's do. Might have something to do with who runs the joint. If you want a good blueprint for how to make on course patrons feel welcome and wanted think Tauherenikau . Committee people are at the gate from beginning to end welcoming patrons and saying good bye and thanks at the end of the meeting. F and B is reasonably priced as well as is their use of facilities to generate income outside of racing. Just my thoughts Greg

You may want to listen It's only worth 12 trillion to Big Pharma to get a vaccine....nothing to see here Think why are you sitting in your house now

Yes JJ , I thought it was a good way to be involved.....keep one's hand in. Someone else does the study for you ,you know they are considering track conditions etc so you know you you will probably get a run for money etc And when on track with the guys and gals you know it will be a positive environment...Karaka day was great cos people there from all across NZ. No reason it can't and won't be duplicated at Harness more often ! Harness sure needs it.....it needs a younger following getting involved .And it needs more positivity. And this needs to translate into more BETTING ,because that is what funds it ! Harness does better from Bulk funding from TAB ...29% ...than it probably should. Probably due to the fact that fixed odds betting seems strong...was marginally up last year while both off course tote and on course tote down 12 - 13 %. People moan about the hot favs but less than 23 % of races have Favs @ $2 or less. And these are rarely on the grass ,and South Island racing has good size fields too ! In short ,to survive Harness needs it's fans to bet more....and Harness does poorly on the overseas races....the doggies much better ! Another concern for me re Harnesses future funding ,apart from ATC having no cash , is that I believe Sports will be demanding a bigger take from TAB. Sports betting levels can justify them asking ! News in last day that Mainland Netball gone into liquidation is a timely reminder. Ive spent much of my life involved in Sport and have seen its struggles in NZ up close......Folk despise pokies but they fund a lot of NZ Sport ,and the TAB commission too has been crucial in recent years. Mainland netball had 20000 members in the strong Harness catchment Timaru to Nelson with Canterbury the key. Just like they have all the horses and all the enthusiasts ! They need to start betting and make the 'big dance' attractive to bet on !

Of course vaccinations work, the science is simple. I am glad most of the NZ population got the 3 shot vaccines when they were young. The fudge up lately in the last 20 odd years, has not helped the general population. When the press and others exploit the unfortunate few that have reactions, they do a disservice to the main population. Nowadays tho, it is wise to check each vaccine out fully before you or your family take it, because of the greed of pharmaceutical companies.

You on to it eljay ! Cycling...tho I don't pass too many these days is my big addiction ,and sadly many of my other addictions are gone or going fast ! Doctor told me I had to give up half my love life ! I asked what half....thinking about it or talking about it ! Plus I'm off Ice cream now...my household went so crazy at the supermarket last week we were tipping Ice cream down the sink to make room !....true. No chocolate , no hot chips , no sport to go to or watch on TV , no church.....and Harness trainers giving up.It will be next ! Not a lot to do......and all day to do it in !

Whilst we are worried about the number of deaths that might occur in our country, yesterday was Tomb-sweeping Day in China, followed by hanging ceremonies throughout the country My bet is that China hung 10 times more people yesterday than will die in NZ from Cobid 19 over the next 5 years Mikie

Hi Houla, its ok to ask for on behalf of your partner hehe. Place 6 is one of my fav betting options as I have raise on race café a long time ago when the earth was green and unicorns you'st to roam free.....anyway that's another story. So basically as Gruffy said, I have a set amount in the budget for the day as we all should do, $20-$40 set aside per place 6 which allow to take a few in every leg...not often I anchor a leg as I like to be going live into the last leg - not knocked out in the first leg riding only on one horse. So for a good chance for example 3 horses in every leg (3x3x3x3x3x3) will cost $73 for 10% start share or $37 for a 5% minimum start share.....and each time 2 or more hosres place in one race the % will x2 or x3 and so on. By the way if you manage to get up to 100% by or after the last race and no other tickets are live, the pool is yours!!!! Winner winner chicken dinner!! What I have done is experiment with combinations and fined tuned to my liking. Have a go, have fun, Good luck Houla and friends.!

TOC Discusses California Race Dates Transfer

From my research on provax sites GOM, China is the most heavily vaccinated Country with Mandatory vaccinations yet they still get recurring disease.These vaccinations will be Mandatory Worldwide after this Sars2 outbreak, and you will be another of Big Pharmas guinea pigs. The case in Canada recently with the dead 13 month old baby, the Judges summation declaring the Vaccination campaign was ultimately just an experiment .Look at the Past openly and you will see the future
