Uate, the Newcastle horse, looked to be anything when he was 2...

Prick just won't fire

I think there will be about 4 changes to the NSW team for the next game. I'll definitely lock them to win game 2. 

Would like to see Dugan and Watmough in the team. What NSW lack is good tactical kicking particularly on 5th tackle, and as much as I hate the likes of Soward, they could have done with him today. 

You guys think Hayne would get suspended for the punch on Thurston?

Sure did. One of the best performances I have seen was by Dunaden in Hong Kong. Horse was beat and picked up from nowhere.... after a tough campaign too...

Yeah, Uate was in the same clan as free wheeling, aeronatical etc etc. Some have gone okay, but they promised much more.... Sydney will do that, however when a good melbourne horse comes out, they are the business.

Nah, he won't get suspended. Just a cheap thug shot.

I would say NSW win game two, but can they score? and I don't mean the ball bouncing off Qld's players backs.

Point is, you can dominate up the middle... but you must score out wide. NSW can't.... every time Q had the ball out wide they smoked them in classic Q fashion.

NSW keep playing the same footy, and keep losing.. and find calls to blame it on.

How about leading at the 72nd minute?.... instead of being behind. They had 100% of the ball in that 2nd half....

Smoked them? 1 try nsw had 12 men the other was off the back off a dodgy penalty. Did you watch the game or just read the box score

No. Not even close.

It's a very quick horse, but has had horses moved barrier to suit it(outrageous)... and no one takes it on, they are instructed not to..

When it gets caught 4 back on the rail and horses are holding her there, and she wins.... then call me.... that's why they won't go to Dubai.... they don't care. Sunline got taken on by a pacemaker and still ran 3rd by less than a length.... it's a mans game over there.

Lunchbox.... QLD's attack on their line tonight was flawless. I don't care what happened prior to the try, what does that matter?.... Their attack which lead to the try was great. NSW had nothing on that front.

People who don't fully understand horse racing will say she's the best ever. But, they don't know any better...

She hasn't had to call on anything 'champion' yet... maybe that's because it's all been too easy, who knows... but I want to see her have to fight from a tough position...like all champions do.

Well we agree on Black Caviar which is a start, 
I agree that queensland look more dangerous on the tryline but  NSW dominated up the middle all game. The refs gave them the opp to attack with out their help NSW win easily

Well put, Rostos the reason they give her these lolly pop races is because it is a great story. There was a horse if anyone remembers named Bentaly Biscuit they cuddled her through her first 10 starts just for the win streak

Because clubs are putting up the money which comes with australian sprint racing, and anything half decent doesn't want to compete for 2nd...

Jockeys are scared of taking her on. I remember Parnham on playing god... sat 3rd wide without moving forward outside BC, he didn't move an inch and was holding his horse back so he didn't threaten BC.

She's great for racing. They can't have her lose... they moved a damn horse to a different barrier because it might interfer with her..... champion? Cotton wool, unfortunately, not her fault.

What about it?... American racing is rubbish. 80% of the field drops out before the turn.
