Great to see Benji and the Tigers get up over Paramata.I can't believe the crowds some of theses games are getting.The game appears to be getting more and more popular.

The rugger head honchos  in Aus and NZ should be looking reasons as to why.

imo 1.25m which i think is too much but inflated by the easy prize money on offer in NSW  and Victoria.

8 group races in Sydney Saturday just gone.

1 nz batter tried a reverse sweep and missed,next ball she did it again and was bowled.

I knew it began with the letter R then the full effect of 2 Starbucks coffees  took hold.

3 overs to go and i don't the kiwi's know where the boundary is.

Ten races carded,8 of them group.

All it will do is over value a broodmare or a broodmare to be by have a GR number in the pedigree.Great for the studmasters and owners of the mares.

Would i becorrect when isay i don't think it's a vineyard in the middle.

The must be more or is that it.

was Sobar the Caufield cup winner?

Maikii Sherman appointed as TV1s  POLITICAL EDITOR

Somewhere in Europe maybe Turkey

No interest at all in SaiL GP but for those that do it seems somebody has cocked up big time.

Watched Sunday on TV1 and one of the stories was about 2 people who say they were scammed.The guy by 400k and a lady by 100k.

What wasn't answered on the show was why they changed banks when investing this money and was the offer of returns so great that they got greedy.The banks in general now offer around 6% on a 12 month investment  so obviously they were offered more.

imo they weren't scammed but got greedy and paid the price.

Don;t watch much rugger but i did start to watch the game last night before boredom crept in.Win the scrum,pass the ball to a forward who will fall on the ground and   protect ball until the same scenario can be played out time after time. Repeat until penalty is awarded.

warriors should have put that game against the raiders to bed in the 1st half.

Witnessed it Wed when the CEO of the warehouse didn't front for an interview but instead they put up a less senior person.She suddenly started ranting on about some conspiracy and started grilling the guest. about the whereabouts of the CEO/CFO.

we need another talkback station.

With ''Weight carrying'' in the News (Imperatriz beaten by a light weighted horse in the Newmarket Hcp)  

Famous Aussie/kiwi horse Phar Lap Carryed 65.5 kg to Victory in the 1930 Melbourne Cup .

But do you remember what happened the year before? . What happened with Phar Lap? A bit of Trivia Not many know

This horse in Photo did the damage . who is he? and what other connection to Phar Lap does he have ? 

Here's todays Trivia horse . 

NIGHTMARCH?  phar lap 3rd wouldn't settle both sired by Night Raid

I would like to add the .

name of Heather 2plus3 to the list of hosts on 1zb not to listen to.

She joins Roman Travers on the list under the title of F.....Wits.

ACELLAR

Anybody know if Daniel Miller of Matamata is still training.Was in partnership with Mason Stevens and then went on his own.Hasn't had a horse to the races since last year

Watching both TV channels today and partially listening to 1zb it seems that everybody wants something.Be it roads,school lunches,subsidy of swimming lessons or GST removed from sun screen.

Don't know much about Govt finances but imo there are only3 ways to raise finance for everybodies needs/wants.

Borrow,tax or sell none of which the average joe bloggs is happy with.What else can a Govt do.

Probably out of favour with Williamson.Southee and Stead we are just lucky that  we have Scott Kuggeleijn to replace him(not)

Pretty sure Ben,Hoss,Little Joe and Hop Sing are singing backup.
