skelly got a reaction from JJ Flash in TAB you CNUTS!!
So to clarify, if I deposit $1 into my account, and put it on the result of the Rugby World Cup 2023, my account is in credit and I should be allowed to watch all the content from now until then?
No.
Technically, it wouldn't be a trivial matter linking up a betting option with the video content. Not saying it's impossible, but remember that this is the TAB we're dealing with.
Anyway, just log in at loveracing.co.nz, and you can watch the same streams without any restrictions.

skelly got a reaction from Baz (NZ) in HONG KONG FORM
Whowouldathunkit. As soon as an Aussie wonder horse goes overseas to take on some of the world's best sprinters (and Enzo's Lad), it gets shown up.
Good on them for trying though. Nothing worse than a horse wrapped in cotton wool for its entire career...

skelly got a reaction from Black Kirrama in Trackside does it again
Can't speak for their Trackside coverage, but their Youtube stream of the Derby was excellent. All the pre- and post-race comment you could ever need. Shame hardly anyone was watching it...

skelly got a reaction from Ohokaman in Trump written off
Spectacular fail.
If you actually looked at the original Q message (instead of parroting back something you'd seen on your newsfeed), you would have seen the 53-47 was in relation to the Judge Kavanaugh vote. The vote turned out to be 50-48, so your infallible Q must have been having an off day...
Anyway, as it stands the Senate is 52-47 so do try and get your facts right before making a fool of yourself, although that might be too late.

And so it comes to this... the final roll of the dice. Unfortunately, of all weeks, I've had to pick pretty much blind. It's a method which went very badly a few weeks back, so advantage to Cubes.
Now that I've deftly taken control of underdog status, here's some picks...
R1 - 1,9
R2 - 1,6
R3 - 3,5
R4 - 2,7 BB
R5 - 6,11
R6 - 2,5
R7 - 8,12
R8 - 1,3
R9 - 1,12 BB
R10 - 3,13
Good luck to Cubes, thanks for administering the competition PJ, and c'mon the Dark Horses!

Well done TC!
Of course Exalted Adam was going to get up at the finish and snatch victory from me once again. They don't call it deja vu for nothing...
Accordingly, I also put a few dollars on it

Much has been written about my opponent. 13 victories in a row. One win away from doing a Frankel.
Meanwhile, I'm fresh from losing yet another week in yet another last-race loss. I've grown accustomed to the sad inevitability of seeing my opponent's pick get up in the dying strides. If you look at the slo-mo, I'm sure you can see the horse look at the camera and give a shit-eating grin, well aware of what's just happened. This is my life.
Some exemplary picking will be required. Am I the man for the job? No, no I'm not. But I can wildly stab at the form with the worst of them, so here goes nothing.
Good luck to The Crucible, thanks PJ, and for hopefully not the last time, go the Dark Horses!

With TC still on target for a perfect game, here's the Elo ratings after eight weeks. Sarah and Tom are doing the chasing at the moment. At a team level, the Horsies excellent form of late has them comfortably leading the way.

Good luck Wrinkles, get better PJ, and go the Dark Horses! We took a well-earned breather last week, and came back to the chasers. The AAs are making their run from the back way too early. Poor deluded fools, think they're Bonecrusher...

Love some pointless maths, so here's some Elo ratings as of this week. Started everyone off at 1200 points (could in theory go through previous comps to get a more accurate starting point, but not tonight...), and the points have gone up or down in varying degrees based on who's beaten whom. Hmm, I need to lift my game...

"pointless maths" is an oxymoron Sam. All maths is a beautiful thing.
