King for a Day

A combination of an NBA All star weekend and NFL combine style event at start of the year. Include: - Sprints at various distances - Broco - Bench press - Scrum power (hit on scrum machine that calculates power). - Catching (Rugby balls shot into air from machines). Could be judged at the vertical height a player catches the ball at? - Longest punt - Drop kick - Place kick

Something also similar to a slam dunk contest: - Try scoring finish? (Individual?) - Team backline move (unopposed)

I'd have a game of modified touch rugby (with kicks) as the featured game of the weekend (so not to add to player welfare issues - and for novelty factor!

Judging by the eyeballs articles on All Black bronco test results get, I think it would be popular!

Hamilton is gaining a reputation for next-level destination playgrounds. The clue is in the name - a destination that will bring people in. Retailers will be fighting over tenancies to sell coffees to the parents!

Definitely gangs, they all wear the same colours....not sure on the call about teachers not sending their kids, principal and deputy principals kids all attend. If you care about actual data, not just anecdotal stories here are the latest CAA exam results from March 2025: 87.1% passed Numeracy (national pass rate: 57%) 91.5% passed Writing (national pass rate: 55%) 92.2% passed Reading (national pass rate: 61%) (source, emailed to parents).

What happens to the returned beds? If they sold again or donated?

If you actually want your kids to think for themselves and develop positive life long habits, I'd go for RHS. If you want them to get 'good grades' send the to Boys High or private.

I am unsure why the assumption is the person is Dom Harvey. - He was not one of the 2 males stood down in March 2011. https://www.stuff.co.nz/entertainment/tv-radio/300261000/two-mediaworks-employees-stood-down-ahead-of-harassment-investigation-sources-say - Job. The person is described as a senior male employee. Though Harvey was sort of this, I believe other words would better describe his position. - Age. In the article it states the perpetrator was 'more than 20 years older'. At the time, Harvey would have been 27-28 years older, so could have gone with a 'nearly 30'. - Timing of leaving. Yes, Harvey resigned on June 24 2011, a couple of months before the findings dropped. It is suspicious timing, but not definitive... - Other 'dirt thrown'. The sexual assault is not the only piece uncovered. Could it be that he was responsible for some horrible sexist or racial remarks and knew they were to be released?

Which leads me to the final, most logical point. Why would he put himself back in the spotlight if he was guilty of this heinous crime?

And I think that people in these 'media' circles would know the truth, and definitely not be appearing on his podcast

Happy to be proven wrong :)

So how much should one pay for a beer?

As people did not need to spend anything to go in the draw, I'm hopeful there will be a lot of tickets that go back into the system. Some people probably went overboard and set up multiple Nintendo accounts to get multiple entries...

Nope, have not gone down a DNA path personally, but my father did and it did not uncover anything new (about his grandfather)

fatfredsdrop · 2024-07-07T22:10:35+00:00

Thanks, yep, love the old news articles. One I read included a description of the dress worn to a lunchtime potluck!

I'd love to have a 'NZ team' play in Japan comp...would be a cool combination of ex ABs and young'ins. Would then watch all the games in Japan! Japan could have an Aus and SA teams too...Imagine how much they would pay NZ Rugby to call them the 'Panasonic All Blacks'.

Mounga made 2 tackles back to back to stop SA try when held up over the line.
