Your Political knowledge, or lack there off surprises me Bruce! Can I please quote you: "GET ACCURATE" page 12, 3rd last post. You Quote that Mike Baird works for "Westpac". When in fact he is employed by "NAB". Tut tut for one WHO preaches perfection.
Please, Please Bruce: The ABC is funded by the Federal Govt! Where have I stated they kowtow to ANY particular Political Party? YOU State bias towards Labor & the Greens, NOT ME.
Besides all this crap, they (ABC) should be flogged off. Useless!

Terry,
Sorry my mistake - NAB is correct but the principle is the same.
Kowtowing - it was my statement, not yours, that ABC bowed to Labor and Greens. Primarily because that is the bent of the majority of the people working there - as surveys have shown. It is why AA engaged with them on the original live baiting exercise etc etc.
But, yes, I would vote for their dismissal.
My reason for responding was mainly about the support for Masters where you wanted cash to go elsewhere. I disagreed about that detail but generally we are saying the same thing.
Note - I would never promote perfection as that is an impossible target. But excellence, yes.

Never heard of the little upstart Micky! Spent an hour listening and watching Queen, Whacko Jacko, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin etc. Thanks to you! TJ
Yep, done that many times myself..great to catch up on the golden oldies.
Dimash is bigger than the great wall of China! He has 520,897,671 women chasing him! I'd much rather his problems than mine!
Lucky bugger.

Lol. Stevo, I'd suggest you apply for a position as one of his roadies. It won't be sleeping pills you'll need.

Grant,the antis would have a field day if the box draw was done on the sails of The Opera House. It would be them that would garnish ALL the publicity and they would gloat in raising past issues that we are trying to bury.

We cant hide under a rock. We are a legitimate industry.
If the other codes can wash off adversity then so can we. Some shite happened almost four years ago.

I understand.
$20 entry fee; up from $6. However, cheaper than Melb Cup n Oaks Day. Those two events in Melbourne were expensive n IMO a waste of my money. I only did it once for each meeting, about twenty years apart n wouldnt do it again.
Anyway, hardly anyone there on Wednesday, but that was just the Masters n Young Star heats, lol. I hope they get a good crowd there tonight n next Saturday night.

Ah, JT n ST are so hard to beat. Azkaban avoided trouble on the first turn and kept grinding away.... here come the Mexicans. A good win by Sky Wave too. I didnt see the other two semis. Race 8 up shortly.
R8 - Mystic Riot ! Go NSW !
R9 - (dont) Poke The Bear ! The fav, Benali, had his chance.
R10 - Midnight Starlet (there you go) !

Don't know them, but strike them at Richmond slipping track. Big Butters & Jamella , magnificently turned out animals. That's how a greyhound should look. I want what their having.
