dave, Crash has produced lots of group 1 winners and finalists and dont forget derby winner, dont think think he's that much.
You mentioned Panther and Superman, no mention of Crash, Stop drinking that Whisky it plays havoc with your mind.

Andrew, isn't Brian Jones handling the straws?? From what Paul told me, the Superman straws are available at 800euro and he is the owner of the dog.
jim advert had brian and bill merricks number, i spoke to Paul Bushall back in 2009 asking would superman be available in ireland in the near future he point blank said no. I like the dog would use him, just feel the dogs not getting used enough in Aus time to come to Ireland.

dave, yes i did say panther who is unproven and 1000 euros but would still be a bargain against the cost of 1500 euros for superman who is also unproven over here, i mentioned Crash who is proven sire of group 1s ect ect and a son of brett lee and i know is cheaper, basicaly showing the cost of superman is to high.As it also happens i'm actualy aving a glass of malt whiskey right now taste lush got it off a proper gent for me birthday.

Not sure Kieran, the only Paul I was talking to was Paul Bushel, and he owns the dog - Brian Jones will be the only man I will be calling on this dog.

He is, but it didn't hurt his sire BRETT LEE who may have raced even lighter.

He has double the number of runners to Kingdom law for example and hasn't thrown near the same quality of dog. 250 euros with 50 back for luck would be more than enough, Same old jargon with the Aussie left overs that destroyed the Irish lines

Baalyhoe Marble another proven sire with impecable breeding has thrown his equal if not better from less than half the oppurtunities.

The same old cry-baby routine...
How is this dog a left over Miceal???? he's standing in Australia, so u have no idea at all...
Breeders are informed, they're not idiots...theres 100's of choices of sires, from all the lines in the world and if they wish to use this dog, good on them...the same as using any other sire.....they're taken the risk....talk about sour milk
And if those dogs mentioned were a good choice, then "the breeders" would be flocking to them, OR is it their mismanagement??? Plenty of sire/s in Australia have been left down by same system...
cheers

Andrew, we get screwed in Australia whenever an imports semen lands here. But when our semen enters your shores we get less than in aus most times, it is puzzling to me as to why.
I think he is a little late for you guys being another son of BL.

Do you have questions about breeding theories?
