Wouldn't have paid enough for me to slyly tackle Ray anyway 🙂 Still it would have been nice to kick that 0 into the stand 😀 Well done Turbos, and Zigmeister, on a spectacularly tricky day for some, or should I say most 🙂 Good go Jammo and Pete.. you flew the flag for us admirably 🥂💃 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted October 7, 2023 Author Share Posted October 7, 2023 ROUND 10 - Saturday October 7 Comp Race 10 - Flemington R9 1st - 2 Star Patrol W-$2.30 2nd - 11 Triple Missile Q-$10.00 Scr: 4(L) Subs: #2 then #14 4 MAGPIES (2nd) $793.00 3 points 1 BLUES (3rd) $810.00 1 point The Gilgai winner tipped by Blues Pete (with a BB quinella) and Smiler (with a BB) while all 5 winning Magpies replied with BBs added by Antz and Secret Squirrel and quinellas snagged by Richie and Ian. Anzt finally got ahead of Gordy to extend the Magpies' winning margin for a bonus point. The Blues took a bonus point for a higher aggregate by $17 ! Secret Squirrel was Hawkes Bay MVP while Roland with a terrific total accumulated in the first 3 races was Man of the Match. 224 Ian 87 Smiler 43 Richie 594 Roland 287 Secret Squirrel 0 Moose 152 Stevie N 86 Pete 87 Antz 41 Gordy 3 FERDIES (1st) $451.00 2 points 2 HIGHLANDERS (6th) $844.00 1 point The Ferdies scraped home in the last with a best bet from Geoff finally breaking the deadlock with Rob for the win. The Highlanders, for whom Midnight Caller and Howie scored in the last, must content themselves with a bonus point for a higher aggregate. Tonka with a stonking total was Man of the Match while his opponent Heather was 'Naki MVP. Too good today Howie on what was my worst Super comp day ! 153 Heather 576 Tonka 129 Hesi 92 Midnight Caller 87 Geoff 41 Rob 82 Maurice 0 Craig 0 PJ 135 Howie 2 SWAMP FOXES (4th) $811.80 0 points 3 TURBOS (5th) $992.00 2 points Triple Missile tried hard for Maria but couldn't quite squeak the win for the Swampies who all missed in the last. The winning Turbos last collects came from Zig (quinella), Gary and Blind Squirrel. No bonus points were earned. Ziggy was an impressive Man of the Match for the victors while Punter Pete was Swamp Foxes MVP again. 0 Black Caviar 112 Our Maizcay 351.80 Jamison 23 Blind Squirrel 0 Maria 112 Ray 0 Rees 653 Ziggy 460 Punter Pete 92 Gary 4 KAURI KATS (7th) $1801.00 4 points 1 CHIEFS*** (8th) $518.00 0 (x 3 Triple Joker play) = -1 point The Chiefs final collects came from Robert and Steve P each with BBs plus Jack while the last winner was tipped by Kats Pam (with a sweet BB quinella), Sharne (with a BB) and Captain Max. The Kats took bonus points for a team profit and 4-1 margin while the Chiefs unfortunately suffered a 1 point deduction for their unsuccessful Triple Joker play. Bad day to try that one but who knew. Steve P was Waikato MVP while old tom Graeme was Man of the Match winning 3 of the last 4 races. 432 Pam 110 Lightning Blue 351 Sharne 23 Jack 544 Graeme 115 Robert 328 Max 0 Gee 146 Jen 270 Steve P TABLE AFTER ROUND 10 1st 32 FERDIES* $11,565.00 2nd 30 MAGPIES $11,837.80 3rd 23 BLUES* $10,718.60 4th 19 SWAMP FOXES* $10,837.40 5th 16 TURBOS^ $10,673.80 6th 13 HIGHLANDERS $10,229.80 7th 13 KAURI KATS $9447.00 8th 4 CHIEFS^ $8964.80 ^ Triple Joker play * Double Joker play No change on the table today despite the chaotic afternoon we endured. The Ferdies' lead was cut to 2 points by the Magpies' bonus point. The Turbos' win reduced their gap to the Finals places from 5 points to 3 point while The Kauri Kats are now just 6 points away from a Finals place with their strong win today. The Chiefs unsuccessful Triple Joker play leaves them trailing the Kats by nine points. Four rounds to go before the finals with 11 potential Jokers still to play. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hesi Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Thanks Craig to you and your Highlanders team, close game as expected, I don't think we deserved the win, but will take the points, humbly. I can't even say well played Ferdies, but a win is a win, I hope a few have got it out of their system now, not looking at anyone lol Thanks as always PJ for another great afternoon's entertainment, you never fail to deliver! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordy Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Well done Antz and the Magpies, the Blues turn to come unstuck today. I don’t think there has ever been so few winners picked in a comp. Another Ian led team that is looking more dangerous by the week. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Don't get too used to that victorious feeling Maxi, you have us next week, and you have had your one good round for the second part of the comp. Only folly to play a triple joker against the top team. The Chiefs tried and look what happened lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VC! Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I thought the Blues would’ve played their triple joker today, it was a tough day at the office for many of us, however not for the likes of Roland and Ziggy, Impressive win by Gold Trip today Thanks for the match today Gordy/ Blues you guys are well placed with a couple of big cards up your sleeve. The fields for next week will be sensational, and with World Pools being a part of the Everest meeting the TAB pools will be outstanding 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pegs pride Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 The most bizarre day's picking in PJ's comps EVER. Congrats to the successful, commiserations to the failed.

Lightning Blue Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 On 10/8/2023 at 6:05 PM, Maximus said: .KKs would've played theirs against the Chiefs but couldnt cos they were 8th at the time we were 7th. Missed out on 9pts right there, and it's a rule that IMO should be reviewed. Why shouldnt a team that's leading, or 4th or 7th for that matter be able to play its TJ whenever it wants to? After all, we know that any team can beat any other team on any day.. Just saw this Maxi. Go and earn your 9 points elsewhere mate. it's probably a good rule as it is . The current Rule about Triple Joker Play Avoids the scenario of the Chiefs having to face a triple joker every week. They are a bit under powered . when you have a player picking at 4 wins from 200 selections currently so if that doesn't sap the fun out f it , then people piling in for their 9 points each week is just a bit harsh . I think most players would agree. Who wants to see just One Team facing a Triple Joker all the time. I vote leave it as it is.... ( Let's hope we can hold out Ian's Single Joker play today 🤣) wish us well mate !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
