    It's not the cost that will stop you, it's all the work. Mums BF has sent them off to a trainer who does everything for him and he gets 60% of the winnings and still owns the dog.

    Rather buy a thoroughbred tbh.
     
  3. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Name the dog Merchant, IMO.
     
  4. SM MD Dorn

    Totally need to name a dog Jiminy Cricsim
     
  5. SM MD Dorn

    In fact, i reckon i'd buy into a dog.


    Should get a cricsim syndicate

    Rhodes Merchant/Merchant Rhodes

    It's actually not a bad name for a greyhound.
     
  7. SM MD Dorn

    Stuart's Merchant Rhodes IMO

    Bit of trivia - Anthony Stuart took an ODI hat-trick back in 1996/97, and one of Heef's CPL players was the middle victim. That duck set off a sharp decline after what had been a good start to Wasim's international career.

    The gift that keeps on giving, eh Heef?

    After cutting one career short, he probably thought it were best if he give a few guys extended goes at establishing their careers (ie practically the entire Wellington XI)

    Mohammed Wasim? He the only Pakistani old enough to have played against Anthony Stuart. It's not as if Stuart's career got any better after that game - he disappeared even more quickly than Wasim. Still, you've got to appreciate Stuart's signings for Wellington - Robbie Schaw. What a player!

    ROBBIE SCHAW!

    That was the **** Wellington signed from CD. I swore it was Worker
     
  12. HeathDavisSpeed HT Davis

    Definitely Schaw. How did that work out?
     
  13. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Wasim indeed. I meant to say who it was in my post, but skipped a word, annoyingly enough. Robelinda put it on YouTube, in fact:

    Real well for CD. Wellington should actually go and sign Worker now, and Bruce Martin...


    Actually, Robbie Schaw vs Bruce Martin 1 on 1 would be intreguiging
     
  15. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Bruce Martin used to be a properly good bowler; WTF happened there? He's been so dire in the last four seasons or so.
     
  16. SM MD Dorn

    Myth - no way was he a good bowler. He was average at best. He thought he was better than Vettori.

    Absolute hack in club cricket, even i hit him for runs. Moved to Auckland, playing club cricket, never to be heard from again (hopefully)


    Basically, he stopped training as hard, working on his game, and became a faggot (although, i argue that's been there all along)

    Easily our best OD strip ever.

    Thanks for all the info Heef.

    We'd actually probably be racing in Melbourne or Victoria, because my mate that's really driving it is from there.

    My mate has pretty much just found the form guide for the Meadows and rung every trainer in there asking if they have any pups and what the go is. He's a really talkative bloke so it doesn't surprise me, but he reckons that he's having 20 minute chats with each one, where some end with, we've currenlty got no dogs to sell.

    The idea of the second bite of the cherry is pretty good though.

    Cheers. If I have any more questions, I'll be sure to shoot them to you.
