"Hey Nat, look over there, geeze that looks like John Curtin only I reckon that Ronald's hair is holding up a lot better than John's is". It would have been all well and good, nobody would ever have known, but unfortunately the bloke whacking into a double quarter pounder meal at the next table not only overheard the comment, he was a NZ harness racing fan & he happened to be an old school mate of John's.
    He duly got on the phone and told John what Mark had said. Deeply hurt by yet another unkind comparison with Ronald McDonald...and by way of seeking some level of retribution, John then asked that Tim Butt replace Mark as the driver of Auckland Reactor for duration of the WA ID Carnival.
    Remember, you heard it here first.

    Geez, Tim's fatter than Anthony, if he were driving AR, 'freight would stop the train' so to speak!!

    Got to admit VVV, the story is funny!

    Anthony is on is he? Shows how much attention I've paid thus far. Duly scolded Nathan. Heading for the corner.

    I'm also waiting for JC to revoke my flowing red cape and 'S' insignia.

    Well the original post was such a load of rubbish how do you expect posters to react. Nothing in the original post was factually correct. Auckland Reactor was never in Christchurch, Mark Purdon was never in NZ. Mark and John have fallen out so badly that John has put Marks brother in law up for the drive in the final. They talk about media beatups but this whole thread is the grand- daddy of all beatups. Is it a surprise who started it . NO

    I struggle to find more than one fact in this post.
    It is true AR wasn't in Christchurch during his short trip home. That appears to be the only fact here.

    Read the post again. The horse went to Auckland, Mark stayed in Melbourne. Bit hard to jog the horse from there and even harder to make a judgement on his condition. Like the rest of the post it belongs in the bin

    So the horse went to Auckland and the suppossed trainer stays in Melbourne. Only confirms Mark hasn't even run a mere hand on the horse for the entire ID campaign, nor week prior. Mark in his wisdom claimed the horse was "tired" and wanted it left at home.

    Should give the trainer award to his stable lad preparing it.

    Did you go through a box of Kleenex whilst reading through this thread and it's various posts Viv you sook!

    Take it easy fellas. Who gives a bugger. The Final's shaping up to be a killer. That's all that matters.
