Blind Squirrel Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 By my humble calculations I think the turbo's have kept their noses in front to down the Maggies. Jase you smashed the Squirrel today - well played fella! Commiserations Maggies as you practically led from go to whoa but were nabbed late (Just like my firking massive win multi finishing on Deep Beauty in the last at Te Rapa aaaarrggh) Unfortunately Ray we were the bunnies today but Gaz, Stevie P and Zig stepped up and carried us home - thanks fellas. Well played to all and looking forward to a semifinal showdown next week once PJ has settled the dust! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Punter Pete - too good for me today buddy - missed the winning fave, while Rees, Jamison, Zac, Heather and Tom doubled up with BBs. Captain Maria was Match Star while her unlucky opponent Maurice was 'Naki MVP. 116 Tom 431.20 Jamison 480.40 Maurice 500.40 Maria 173.40 Heather 312 Rees 264.80 Zac 403.40 Our Maizcay 164 PJ 411.40 Punter Pete 3 Chiefs* (1st) $995.80 2 (x 2 Joker play) = 4 points 2 Highlanders* (8th) $1125.00 1 (x 2 Joker play) = 2 points Zaaki tried hard for the Otago boys but wasn't good enough and the quinella was the wrong way around for Rex so the Chiefs held on to secure the Minor Premiership and complete a successful Joker play, with Robert (bagging a BB) and Jack earning their final dollars. Rex (with a BB quinella) and Hesi (with a BB) scored the final wins for The Highlanders whose dream didn't come true but they did get a point (doubled with their Joker play) for a higher aggregate. Hesi was Otago MVP while Captain Jack was an impressive Man of the Match. 348 Robert 168 Rob 58 Lightning Blue 330.60 Hesi 414.20 Jack 253.80 Rex 148.60 Tassie Tiger 144.60 Midnight Caller 27 Gee 228 Craig 2 Magpies (7th) $1318.80 1 point 3 Turbos (2nd) $1264.80 2 points El Bodegon tried hard but couldn't pull it off for the Magpies so the Turbos held on to cement their Finals berth. Only Ziggy and Ray missed the champ in the last while Steve, Gary & Jase bagged BBs, Secret Squirrel snagged the quinella with Blind Squirrel bagging a beaut BB quinella. Jason was Man of the Match while Steve P was Manawatu MVP. The Magpies took a bonus point for a higher aggregate and just missed out on a team profit. 399.20 Jason 160.80 Blind Squirrel 255 Ian 166.60 Ray 197.20 Stevie N 295.80 Gary 229 Richie 364.40 Steve P 238.40 Secret Squirrel 277.20 Ziggy 3 Kauri Kats (5th) $1222.20 2 points 2 Blues (6th) $1092.40 0 points Neither of the Blues' chances got into it so the Kats held on and booked a Finals berth in a close fought match in which no bonus points were earned. Sharne and Kauri Kats' MVP Pam bagged BBs in the last while Pete (also with a BB), Smiler and Man of the Match Gordy got the final collects for The Blues. 301 Graeme 334.20 Gordy 261.40 Max 149 Smiler 309.20 Sharne 158.60 Moose 323.60 Pam 182 Roland 27 Jen 268.60 Pete FINAL ROUND ROBIN TABLE - Minor Premiership The FINAL ROUND ROBIN TABLE - Minor Premiership The Chiefs are the Minor Premiership winners - congrats to Jack and crew ! They now have the No. 1 seed for the finals. The Swamp Foxes sensational win today secured them 2nd place while the Turbos won but have to settle for 3rd.

Maximus Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Tis the morning after the fab days racing the day before and the morning after the BlackCaps gave the bleedin' Ozzies some overdue misery; unfortunately it's bound to wake the convicts up from their smug complacent arrogant slumber just in time to win the bloody tournament. But Max is ONE HAPPY MUSTELID after that Demolition for the Ages...when Daryl Mitchell returns from injury there'll be no place for ...someone (Chapman? Sodhi? Boot cap'n Williamson into touch? LOL) But Maxi doth digress. Back to the nags. Cheers, Blues ...tight match as expected. Well done teamies, mostly thanks to Elizabeth Rose ... KKs did just enough to get over the line and book a ticket to the Semis but getting to The Big Dance will be tough on Derby Day - the best day's racing in Australasia. Plenty of Kiwis to follow at the Cup carnival, so ...LOOK OUT cos the Mustelid is packing the suitcase and preparing to rock old Melbourne Town.
