He's filling in for justin evans who's currently on leave for  a few weeks.

Not only is he Justin Evans, but you've got a double space between your second "for" and your "a".

I got quite a shock today when I flicked across and heard Bruce :)     I don't usually listen to TS until late afternoon when it's flicked across to mainly Aussie racing.... but it was nostalgic and entertaining  :)     

Nice surprise... thank you TS  :)

Top race caller that Justin Evans .....most improved in the country for mine.

Rarely makes a blue and keeps the race flowing ....so all in all a VERY good race caller and I like him very much.

Bruce Sherwin is a nice guy but shouts way too much in his calls.

Incorrest on first two points, but correct on third point.

Yes, readily admit I was a bit off this stint. Rhythm/timing was off and over-enthusiastic.

You were just fine Bruce, I don't think you shout at all, you do a really good job creating a picture of what is happening during your call. I used to think Mark McNamara shouted strangely enough and thought he was just ok, where others loved him. I have always rated you as a caller 👍 FF seems to profess to know everyone doesn't rate you but says you're a nice guy which I'm sure you are.

Wonderful humility Bruce- I've always rated you for the tempo and accuracy of your calling, especially when you have called a winning couple for mine at Matamata.😄  Best of all, you haven't been lured into talking shit pre-race with Popplewell and Sweeney!

B Sherwin ....what a man .....full of humility and best of all never wraps himself.

And Palliser for the record I do know Bruce along with nearly every other caller in the country past and present (been in the game a long time) .....so I reckon I can call it as I see it and for Bruce to say he's been a bit off his game shows the manners of the man.

He was a great caller when I met him up in Macau about 25 years ago and didn't get quite as excited as he does now that he is part-time.....but he still nails every finish! ......Good on ya mate.

You also said you thought Marc Mac was 'just OK' .....WOW you must be a hard marker Palliser as he is regarded as one of the worlds best which I agree with 100%....and yes I know him personally as well and he is a top man just like Bruce.
