    Idolmite got a reaction from Raptor in KICK UP THE BACKSIDE FOR TRACKSIDE   
    They certainly are consistent. Consistently abysmal, and that's being complimentary.

    Idolmite got a reaction from jasonmccook1 in Sky TV TAB deal for trackside ??   
    Have emailed the TAB as well as both phoning and emailing Sky TV. Sky have asked for the TAB release where it's mentioned, so I've forwarded it to them. Hopefully somebody will have a definitive answer.

    You'll need an extra $ or two to breed to BD, CC or MT over what TTL will stand for I imagine.........it's all relative I guess.

    Or is it just that since more people have backed it for more money, more people are watching that particular horse when it breaks?

    Where are they now? Some were in the thread started to praise TTL's effort. Where were you when that happened? You're almost a week behind man

    Idolmite got a reaction from lee in Yet Another Death From A Pointless Police Pursuit   
    The problem is that said pissed driver could have carried on, if let go, and crashed into and killed innocent people further down the road. It's a tragedy either way in my eyes, and there's really no right or wrong answer. Drivers need to stop thinking they're bullet proof, stop thinking they can outsmart the law (like in this case), and most of all stop running......

    Only got to see the last 3 races, but managed to keep a track of progress - or lack of in my case - from work. I seem to recall being in the top 3 collects last year, finished in last place this year, so am more than happy to go again on Friday in an attempt at redemption. Thanks to all those that led the way - awesome effort team.  
     
    I like the idea of putting $42.50 to one side and betting $50 again. Any race once again for me - might go the field for a place bet to ensure a collect

    Idolmite got a reaction from Killafornia in Sbw   
    Ahhhhhhh, so he hadn't actually "signed" when the txt was sent and you made the posting then. In that case you fibbed
     
    I certainly didn't see/hear it announced/released anywhere but here (I did check once I read your post), but that doesn't mean it didn't happen of course. A car isn't "sold" until you have the money, and SBW hasn't "signed" until he's penned his signature.
     
    As for your other comments, I believe the NZRU has indeed said they will keep the channels of communication open, and how did League "roll over" to accomodate him?
     
    Considering what a good luck charm he appears to be, Chiefs, All Blacks and Roosters all winning with him on board, in at least two of those cases within hhis first season with the team, you'd have to say he's not a bad addition. While I do support SBW as I don't have ATPS (anonymous tall poppy syndrome) like many Kiwi Internet users, I don't believe he should have been put into the Kiwi's squad once it had been named. In saying that, Steve Kearney didn't have to name the team when he did either. The NZRL always has been a bit of a joke, and I feel for Tohu Harris. That feeling will go if we put one up the Aussies come the Final however......
