  • Field Theory: It's the Super 14, baby!,

    The most interesting thing about the Super 14 is following who’s been misbehaving.

    Interesting contrast between rugby and Phoenix. A rugby crowd can be 3 times the size of the Phoenix yet somehow manage to generate 10% of the atmosphere.

    Not sure where rugby has gone wrong. A combination of the complex rules (why not just revert to c 1997?), a perception of bullying fans, and not just rugby fans, and the uber commercialisation of the Adidas All Blacks.

  • Hard News: Veitch,

    Can anyone recommend a good lawyer to do conveyance and to help me set up an owner operator business project, in Levin?

    Setting up Miss Universe New Zealand pageants?

    David Cormack,

    So well said.

    And that wound was reopened last week when it transpired Henry wrote a letter to the courts praising that Mr. Veitch because he was nice to him.

    Who do these people (Team All Black) think we are????

  • Hard News: It would be polite to ask,

    Isn’t the real issue here the fact that there are sweets shaped like ... people?? Call them Eskimos, jelly babies, jellied poms, ozzies it doesn’t matter. They’re still people.

    And when you think about it, that’s a bit yuk.

  • Hard News: Veitch,

    3 months on a trial when you know that almost everyone you’re listening to can’t be trusted.

    And there’ll be a lot of “he said, no he didn’t” type evidence.

    And there’s not even the crime show diversion of the Bain trial to make it moderately interesting.

  • Hard News: Veitch,

    Speaking of juries; I see that 7 of the 12 elected jurors have excused themselves from the Field trial.

    Can’t blame them at all; I couldn’t think of a worse jury to be on. But that is a real weakness in the system.

  • Field Theory: He's the voice,

    Fox makes some good comments although, strangely, is probably the most provincially parochial commentator in the country (Mex doesn’t count).

    But he’s hardly a critic, is he?

    I find his remarks generally asinine and uninformative

    What do you make of Ian Jones then?

    So they call him Nisbo just to keep it simple?

  • Field Theory: He's the voice,

    What Giovanni said.

    Although Nisbett does seem to be getting more biased when covering All Black tests as time goes on.

    But if you want a good example of an ex-player who is barely coherent look no further than Ian Jones.
