What a month, All Star Mile where all good horses are avoiding the race, Group 1 Guineas on the same day, and foreigners coming from the UK and Japan to take PVLs money
Swans and Cats play in last years Grand Final Replay,
Is this the first time in history that last years grand finalists have not been in the 8 (or 4 or 5 or 6) in history playing each other in the 2nd half of the season?
I have listed the no 1 draft pick for the 2000s and a little summary of what i think the players peak was. The number of premierships won is pretty damning which leads me to think tanking to get a number 1 pick is futile and there are better ways to win a premiership.

I am surprised there is no racing futures thread here given future markets dont really fit into the monthly thread and its a popular bet form. Maybe it can be stickied and punters can post horses they think are overs in future races. Most of the board have a clue so it might lead to a few decent...
Can someone clarify this for me
The ball hit the goal umpire while the ball was still in play. It did not hit the goal post even though it was heading directly for it. WC played on and kicked a goal but after a score review it was declared a point. Was this decision correct? Should it have...
You want rage? Terry f@#$cking Bailey is the worst caller in the world bar none! he is terrible, he calls races like they are a foregone conclusion then when he is wrong he just goes on like nothing happened. He goes on about tips and how there are only 2 chances then for sure something else...
