    which chunk of the former Tasman holds the Sheild?

    It'd probably end up at Canterbury...

    Wellington know how to win the Shield, they just don't know how to hold the Shield.

    Well apart from between 1983 and 2005 that is…

    It was a good game, but nothing really to enthuse over.

    Believe me, the quality of the game was irrelevant. Wellington was never going to win a close one, so it was important we nailed it properly.

    And there’s something nice about winning it to nil.

    “Maverick”, local MPs seem to be particularly well received in areas which see themselves as being a bit different and independent.

    Like in western areas of the country; West Coast, Nelson, New Plymouth, Raglan etc..

    Stephen Franks was referred to as “Goering” when a partner at Chapman Tripp.

    I wouldn’t have thought the staff at CT would be too riddled with pathologies either. Well not the type that would wind up Franks.

  • Field Theory: Twinkies and Pork Rinds,

    two years ago, I made my daughter cry by barking a loud NO! when Zambrotta hit the post in extra time vs. the hated Germans

    What did you do to her when ZZ did his head-butt 5 days later?

    I yell at players more than refs on TV.

    Perhaps it’s some subliminal thing where I think I’m a coach and can actually achieve something. And normally players who yell at the ref get pinged, so I’ve worked out it would probably be counter-productive.

    And I too have developed the silent cheer in recent years. Just as fulfilling as the audible one, but I do find it gives me a headache after a while.

    Bloody Americans, if they’re not running round the world starting needless wars they’re bringing down the global economy instead.

    Although, is there anything on the right-wing blogs about how the first falling domino stared when some Islamist fundamentalists defaulted on a Sub Prime mortgage??

    I thought that in Scotland the word “scone” referred to a type of physical activity normally occurring outside a pub at closing time.

    Shame Ross Meurant isn’t in politics any more.
