At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all.
Wellington: 7/10
As in the NPC team. A brilliant final, overtime and high drama. It's good for rugby.
The haka: 6/10
I know Joe Marler is a boofhead, but doesn't he make a not unreasonable point? By the time we show up, sing the national anthem twice and then the haka, that's a lot of indulgence asked for, isn't it?
Anthony Albanese: 2/10
"Hi Alan, can you stick us in first class?" What could possibly go wrong?
Ginny Andersen: 3/10
"Hahahaha look at that, I'll share that." What could possibly go wrong?
Australia and their Covid report: 7/10
Obviously a lot more efficient than us, but what theirs says ours will say. Sadly for both, the trust is gone, and lessons will never be learnt. But good to see some honesty at last.
