Maximus

A match against the noble and kind-hearted Sir G is always to be savoured. I hope I kick your generous bottom LOL... MM

Morning all, from Bedrock, where Mrs W is looking mighty fine and the little Weasels are running riot. Looking forward to a good day's racing, topped off nicely by a tough encounter against the Old Enemy at the Cake Tin tonight. And if you believe Steve Hansen saying "revenge for last year's loss is not a factor", you've lost your marbles. Speaking of which/whom, good luck finding 'em today, lads, this will be a tough match, too. Nothing nasty, please! OK Koolest of Kats, LET'S DO IT TO THEM BEFAW' THEY DUZ IT TO US!!

I have a new pin-up girl ... Ameliaranne is a fabulous athlete and very very easy on the eye ..sigh LOL

a case of Winston not doing the job properly? ...you have to clean out all the rubbish to get the house in order..

i dot see her involvement in any part of the racing industry as good. Under her stewardship NZ Racing has imploded and she should be accountable. Her departing email to staff is delusory = and she is still on the gravy train.

tres tres Formidable!! Congrats on your victory, got the noses in front in sight of the winning post and hung on for a narrow victory at least we Kool Kats copped a couple of well deserved points with old tom Graeme and 'WecandoosIt' Rob leading the way. Well done..another classic encounter that went to the wire. MM

exciting stuff.. Pete's Q in the 9th put the Formidables in front...but it aint over yet .. by my calc Shijin. Plumaro or Coastal Prince can turn the tale for Kool Kats but PJ is the oracle on this stuff

surprisingly Jen didnt have it either LOL

as Punter Pete nails Maximus ... who fully intends to nail him back (at least once!!) Great matches here !

Weasels are certainly very musical creatures - Mrs W faints at the sound of my serenades - but we hunt in 'gangs' 'packs' ' confusions' or 'boogles'.

Jen you have selected #14 in a 13 horse field (New Plymouth R6). If you don't re-post by 10:45am captain Maximus will have to shut his eyes, throw a dart at the field and pick a replacement for you (prob #11)

thanks for the reminder, VvD ...we declared our Joker for this week on Saturday night last week...forgot to mention it again. Got that, PJ??

Morning citizens, 'tis your very own Mustelid Maximus tuning in and ready to get out the Kats' Klaws and give the Formidable opposition a right royal mauling. Kool Kat Sharne's picks today come from PJ's daughter Ceilidh (say Kay-lee) and I'm reliably informed she's a better tipster than Dad! I hope so. Good luck Ceilidh and a warm welcome to PJ's legendary SuperDuper Comp!

i note it is an interim position...based on her performance overseeing governance of NZRB for the past six years, I don't see her ongoing involvement as a good thing for the industry.

how must Martin Guptill be feeling right now? Got us to the final running out Dhoni but threw the ball that ricocheted off Stokes's bat to the fence for the 4 overthrows. Freakish incident that cost us the final. And it was Guptill run out at the very end by Buttler. The man must be in need of a good psychotherapist! Hopefully it will go down in history as the greatest ODI ever played. A fairer result would be for the Final to be tied and the glory shared. But what a game...

your opposing captain might play the HTD card in which case the H2H can be avoided and even if that doesn't happen, the match could be a draw (hopefully not at 0-0 though LOL

not necessarily

all good, John... thanks for the heads-up ...PJ, we will play the Joker next weekend and keep the HTD for later

Hi PJ Kool Kats will be playing theirJoker next weekend and exercising the Home Town Draw option as follows: THE FORMIDABLES (7th) vs KOOL KATS (1st)Ashoka v SharnePJ v MaximusRees v GraemePunter Pete v JenPete v Rob

The usually ebullient and previous comp leaders known and loved as "Les Worrywarts" are suspiciously quiet tonight... are they bring treated for shock..? or in another Team Conference? Yours truly is seriously humbled by today's OTP (Outstanding Team Performance) to kick their worried bottoms ..well done, Sharne Jen Rob Graeme and mustelid moi ..BRILLIANTISSIMO. The Moet is flowing here at 1 Rocky Road, Bedrock ...and the sexy little derriere belonging to Mrs W is swaying enticingly from the kitchen ... life is good ..especially when one of your best mates is home from hospital after 8 days of misery with life-threatening shite ....reminding us all that family, friends and fun are the best things in life. Thanks for the match, Why Worry? I daresay there will be a rematch n the not-too-distant future. And thanks, as always, PJ, for the updates throughout another exciting afternoon.

Good morrow, citizens, 'tis captain Mustelid Maximus tuning in and tuning up for an EPIC ENCOUNTER with the worthy Worrywarts (temporary leaders of a high class field). So afraid of the Koolest of Katz are they, their capitano hath resorted to using the HTD to avoid certain H2H clashes. But why worry? What will be will be, or as Doris (and Mrs Weasel) sing: "hey, syrah syrah ...". Now Trentham in July is a tough tough tour of duty, so PJ chooses 5 of the 10 comp races there...Oh. wicked, you're wicked, eh!! Nudge, nudge! Say no more! So Kool Katz, it's once more unto The Crucible, once more ...better do it to them before they do it to us! Have a great day, everyone! (That includes all the Worrywarts, currently locked up in their fifth Team Tactics Conference LOL) R1 1,3 R2 4,6 BB R3 2,4 R4 6,7 R5 1,6 R6 3,9 R7 2,7 R8 12,13 R9 9,10 R10 7,12 BB MM xxoo

here's the ace up our sleeve, lads...the Poms ain't faced Ferguson...he was injured for the round-robin match ... and you'll recall that Southee replaced him and went for 70-plenty. Best bowler for us that day was Neesham (2-41)...but that was at Chester-le-Street, not the Home of Cricket.... Go, Fergie!!
