I can’t imagine how you could make a program more boring than the boring as bat shit “The First Call”. My god....all those three blokes could bring a rest home to their knees. no wonder we’re stuffed. Who is responsible for this show? Time for a change2 points

Fark that Ted! I've had enough after 100m! From memory my best was a 12.flat and a 12.6. When I couldn't keep up on the flat. I made it to the Waikato Champs for 100m Hurdles. I ran 3rd in my heat... falling after the last on the flat (what a farkwit) ran 17.something... which wasn't fast enough to qualify me for the final. My training regime was no exercise, much beer & many cigarettes! Haven't changed a thing and this has made me the champion I am today.....just like CBT2 points -

As for other tracks, Cairns is ok, but Rockhampton has been redeveloped and is becoming quite a large training centre. Kilroy is a good country track but Gympie I’m not a fan of. Townsville is good also. A lot of the other tracks in smaller pop areas are used for Non-Tab meetings and picnic races.1 point

Caloundra is the track made perfect for the Sunshine Coast. It’s facilities are fantastic. Elevated viewing areas under cover for the public all facing North. The track, imho, is one of the best in Australia. Well thought out by the Racing Minister of the time, Russ Hinze, Owner of Waverley Star. He had a vision and used Govt money to build it. They race about 50 times a year and also have night racing. I love going there.1 point

I do worry about all of these poor innocent people being dragged into this by association just because they went to school with him or are vaguely related to him in some sense.1 point -

Do you sometimes think CBT May just be winding you up. It looks like it to me there used to be a bloke on here called Pogo. An Ozi. Always taking the piss out of Kiwis. It was all a gee up . He loves us. Every time I saw someone rising to the bait I used to think “ don’t do it. That’s what he wants1 point

It is all quite entertaining in the most bizarre way. I suspect even p4p is rather bemused. I don't think anyone could have seen this escalating in this fashion.1 point -

Best for half-marathon was 1:06:52. Still hold the NZ half-marathon record for masters 40+ Half Marathon M40 T McLachlan 1:08:22 1996 Actually ran another in 1:08:17 at age 43 but they obviously missed it even though it was a NZ Championship race. Only ran three marathons, all sub 2:30. I wonder if I lost 10kg and trained up what I could run now. Probably across the road and collapse.1 point

Thanks Slam Dunk excellent article from someone who really gets it. Compares the new platform to Typhoon. Allow me to paste a couple of extracts: ‘Déjà vu’ some will be screaming, and not without justification, except inflation has kept pace, and then some. It may also have also been ‘déjà vu’ for NZRB General Manager of Technology Dianna Taylor, who resigned from her position soon after the FOB was launched on January 7 and after only two years in the job. Taylor had been previously employed at Kiwibank, which had an association with NZ Post, and on the NZRB’s website her brief biography read, in part, “…at Kiwibank Dianna led the consolidation and streamlining of Kiwibank’s operational banking functions, headed the development of the strategic technology roadmap that underpins Kiwibank’s strategy, and as CIO was accountable for enabling Kiwibank to continue to deliver its strategic business objectives, which are heavily predicated on technology deliverables.” ‘Technology deliverables’ is an interesting term. Taylor had left Kiwibank in 2017 but in that same year the new computer system she helped establish had to be mothballed and written off after being deemed unfit for purpose after just six months’ use, at a cost of between $90 million and $100 million. “Dianna Taylor hasn’t left but she has announced she is going to leave,” John Allen said. “Nothing to do with the website; she’s terrific and has been one of the key drivers in getting this done and it’s been a hugely complex task and people really don’t understand how significant a change this has been. “It would be the largest technology project this board has ever done and Dianna has just been a tower of strength in terms of doing all that. and Racing NSW CEO Peter Vlandys summed up the New Zealand situation best when interviewed in Sydney last August when he said, “It seems to be a fragmented system in New Zealand where you have the Racing Board overseeing the three codes and from what I can see the management aren’t really racing people, so they don’t understand the business. “I think you need to have that wagering experience, not just a little bit but whoever is the CEO of the TAB must have a substantial amount of wagering experience– it’s different to any other part of the commercial world." Who knew?1 point

Hi I am a bloodstock agent and for Baz (whoever you are) sake, it was myself who made the offer of $3.250 million on behalf of a very powerful international syndicate for Melody Belle, it was a very genuine offer and net to the MB syndicate, I put this here to clear any misunderstanding comments, I had made a $3 million offer prior to the Bonecrusher, cheers1 point
