Nerula 1,389 Report post Posted November 15, 2021 Bernard was a good captain on a leaky ship. He was very busy plugging the leaks but would always pick up the phone to me. I troubled him seldom because I had some idea of the problems he faced. Owners Fed Boss pushed him hard for better performance and Bernard S took the pressure well.

More synonyms at which you can shake a wooden, timber, rod-like pole? 'leading and driving' - very flexible or a split personality? 'multi-dimensional organisation' - I thought that it was solely concerned with racing of thoroughbred horses. 'strong relationships both internally and eternally' - typing error or the appointee stays forever? Is tautology a requirement in M.B.A. study?

Charlie Bukowski 408 Report post Posted November 16, 2021 The person in Racing who has been the most proactive, financially savvy, humble and most intelligent with no ulterior motive, is his own man and is the BEST Person the run either NZTR or NZRB is Daniel Nakhle. Hands Down. I believe his appointment is crucial to Racing's survival.  Insider, hedley and JJ Flash 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Clydesdale 229 Report post Posted November 18, 2021 LOL, You have to be kidding!!!!! We need someone with wisdom and experience and an ability to plan and implement a a future that the Board and new Chairman can orchestrate and design. Someone that understands the requirements of the industry that is in need of great foresight and direction. The incumbent came from a really good industry experience in the VRC, with premium resources available, but missed the cut. NZTR doesnât have those resources, so they have to be innovative, resourceful, and vastly experienced to understand the magnitude and challenges confronting the local requirements for all industry participants. With due respect to Bruce, I donât think he could meet that challenge. Pundits, there are other choices available, so long as the objectivity in the selection process is retained. Just my MHO.
