TooFast Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Pete has done a sterling job captaining the 'Mighty Blues' in the past, and having captained 'The James Gang' to a thrilling Championship Final victory last Saturday my vote for Captaincy again this time around would go to Pete. However Pete has indicated in a recent post his preference for me to lead the 'Blues' this time ...and I'm happy to step up to that role for another magnificent PJ Comp. Happy to put my name in the frame. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWJ Posted June 29, 2020 Author Share Posted June 29, 2020 well-bred filly Impetus looks to clear maiden ranks today at Ballarat in race 2. The Hayes/Dabernig stable tell us she is ready to go. Currently $2.70 Lot of early money for debutant Wilsdorf so act with caution. Impetus is by our own Written Tycoon out of the stakeswinning Fastnet Rock mare Gybe, a half-sister to top NZ 2yo Anabandana. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well of course ..... it won ! Great stuff, PJ ..... lengthened out a bit and on NZ tote paid $3.60/$1.60. Nice ! 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooFast Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 1st proclamation from the throne, as 'Mighty Blues' Captain. I can guarantee 100% we won't be playing the Joker against either the Ferdies or the Hurricanes. Would be very, very suprised if we played the Joker first-up, against the Crusaders. What with two "MTF" stalwarts in therir ranks, Craig and Rex, there are surely more obvious Joker-play targets elsewhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to run this past the 'Mighty Blues' caucus .... but safe to say the 'Turbos' and the 'Barbarians' are on my radar ! 🙂 I see that Ian in his very astute analysis ranks those two teams 5th and 6th respectively. What is certain is that with 7 matches only an ill-conceived and/or luckless Joker play will spell curtains for any team making such a Joker play.

MM I guess every Captain and every team has its own 'modus operandi' ....that's all art of the fun, the testing of strategies. I have to say I've never seen any team's strategy that has raised my eyebrows in a negative way. As a Captain over the years I've historically alwys gone to team-members for their input on a Joker target that I've alighted upon. Not so much democracy in action, more a case that if the whole thing falls flat I get to share the blame ! 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope none of Maxi's Kats have caught it while they were off on draft duty - heaven forbid they discover a world where team-mates chat to each other!? Might have to impose some lockdown measures Maxi. too late, SNM, the Kats are already out of the bag! Edited July 1, 2020 by Maximus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
