Melbourne Merv Takes an Attempt at Tipping 32 Straight Losers – Surely One Day It Has to Rain – Will It Be Today?
Every Betfair bookies favourite tipster Melbourne Merv is back for another crack at breaking his long 31 strart drought today. Merv is clearly sick of backing other people’s losers, so today in race 5 at Bunbury he has selected his own pacer Onesmartfella, and declared it a certainty. If you take a look at it’s […]
Car Thief Caught at Doomben – 1 Down 1 To Go
It’s never boring at the races. Race 2 at Doomben was delayed today while police chased a car thief. They got him at the 850m mark. I wonder what he backed? And doubt that he will be collecting for a while if it wins. Further Update Race 2 is still delayed. There is a second […]
You Don’t See Tracks Like This in Oz
I bet you have never seen a flat racing gallops track like Glorious Goodwood before. That’s because we don’t have any.

You Can’t Sit on a Fence in a War – Unless Your Name is Peter V’Landys – You are Not Doing This Just to Gay People Pete – You’re Doing it to the Pearl, Latrell, GI, JT, Dylan Walker and Everyone Like Them
Everyone has their own opinion on the Manly rainbow jersey. PVL reckons that the Manly 7 have the right to refuse to wear it. I say that is bullshit. This is not about personal choice and respecting difference. It is about 7 bigoted, anti-gay football players refusing to wear the work uniform that they are […]
Where Do These Blokes Stand?
Hypocrisy is as Hypocrisy Does
My heart breaks that seven players from my old club of Manly refuse to wear rainbow jerseys to celebrate inclusivity. This is a difficult conversation we have to have and I am here for it. Allow me to work my way towards conversing with those players. I am trying not to be angry. From my […]
