  1. The "test" will be what justification did this man have in thinking the dog would be allowed to attack again. Was it about to be walked again, past a school, without a muzzle or the like? If it was, then there might be some excuse for being a vigilante. However, if the dog was being kept locked up, cared for by an adult, while waiting for Police to collect it, I wouldn't think the bloke's got any justification for what he did.
  2. Saw it on the news. Didn't see any balaklava's. Just looked like a bunch of (mostly old) pissed tourists laying into each other. Footballs been OK, but to a casual observer the Copa America comp looks more exciting.
  3. A truly great sportsman and a very influential person. His sharp mouth, conversion to Islam, stance on the Vietnam war, comeback, big fight tactics, all made him a huge personality for people of my generation throughout the world..
  4. I'm surprised this has caused a fuss. I thought it was just the way people behaved down in Canterbury.
  5. Johnson is clearly having mental problems in regard to the injury he suffered late last year. This will be compounded by him looking around and seeing a team that is not pulling together. I just wonder if his thoughts are along the lines of "Why should I give 100% when I'm stuck with this lot?" A useful comparison would be Aaron Cruden in the Chiefs. Different sport, but similar high profile, play-maker role and vital to his team. Cruden suffered an equally debilitating injury last season, but has come back as good as ever. I think Cruden has been helped by the environment he has returned too.
  6. It was hard to follow and didn't seem as good as the first series. However the ending was far superior to the first series, which (I felt) had been a huge let down. Loved the theme music in both series. Mad Dogs was a great show. I loved it. Plenty of adventures while exploring all the human frailties of the four lead players.
  7. They have this overseas. It's called the "Bachelorette". One girl and 12 big beef cakes vying for her attention. I don't think I'd enjoy that as much.
  8. I'm starting to lean toward Trump now. I just want to see what will happen if he becomes President. Especially that wall between US and Mexico. I'm wondering if and when it's built, will President Trump man it with personnel known as "The Black Watch"?
  9. Hammers win their final game at Upton Park, prior to move to Olympic Stadium, and a Kiwi scores the winning goal. WHAT A GREAT PREMIER LEAGUE SEASON IT HAS BEEN.
  10. Yeah these Euro Cup ties are definitely gritty affairs Chelseacol, They can be riveting to watch, but they're generally not "the Beautiful game". Maybe "the Beautiful Game" only occurs when Brazil is beating Albania 8-1, or Holland 6 v Laos 0.
  11. I heard there was one woman in NZ (I think) who had $50 on Leicester at the start of the season. Why would she do that? You'd have said she had more money than sense. Now she's won $25,000. Talk about having the last laugh. I've had a look at 2016 -17 and Burnley are at 1000 - 1, along with about 7 other teams, (Inc Watford - Now what about Elton's team for a roughie??). No one higher than that. Leicester $31 to do the repeat.
  12. Always had a soft spot for Sunderland, since the Porterfield goal in 1973. Now have a mate who loves them so I'm supportin them to stay up this season. One team I think will be a great bet to come straight back up are Aston Villa. However the smart chaps at the TAB have probably already worked that out and will have them at very narrow odds. I wonder if the bookies will give 5000 -1 about any team in the Premier League next season??
  13. I'd say the Warriors have some rotten eggs and a one win won't wallpaper over the cracks. Hurrell should never play for the top team again and I'd send Vatuvai on his way as well. That will send a message that no one is above the team.
  14. I'm a fervent West Ham fan who could not be happier to see Leicester City win the Premier League.Just a team of battlers really, but they show that any team can do it if they get the culture right.
  15. Absolute classic and a great "Sing it loud in the shower song."
  16. I feel Jason Emery has been very hard done by in getting 4 week suspension on top of the red card. He appeared to have eyes on the ball and even looked to do a small jump before smashing into Le Roux. Also, I reckon if Le Roux had landed on his side and jumped back up to his feet, Emery might not have even been sent off.
  17. Auckland Warriors. Where you send very good players to turn them into ordinary players. I.e. Isaac Luke.
  18. Jeeze Crusty, you're a bit slow off the mark with this one mate. The man formerly known as Prince has passed away.
  19. If we all got a vote the Chinese Basketball team would win every year.

    Wagner

    11 wickets in his first game of County cricket for Lancashire.
  21. It was nice to see those "old warriors" Corey Jane and Isreal Dagg, produce games that harked back to their glory days.Jane got the fend going and Dagg had those twinkling feet working like we haven't seen in quite some time. Maybe they're not ready to go out to pasture just yet.
  22. To true Ohokaman. It is indeed a great achievement and something for all NZ's to take pride in. In addition it's a nice boost for the worldwide profile of rugby union.
  23. Hey Meomy Maybe John Key should just put the Union Jack on his letterbox. Then he can initiate a referendum to bring back "God Save the Queen". That would reaffirm our place as the last little piece of the British Empire. Good old New Zealand, more English than the English. Come on Meomy get out that Union Jack and your mug with Lady Di on it and sing with me "Swing Low Sweet Chariot, coming for to carry me hooooome, Swing low............."
  24. What a poor example of football that Champions League, Athletico v Barcelona game was this morning. How anyone of those players from wither side not receive a red card for fouls and handballs is beyond me. There was nothing at all BEAUTIFUL about this piece of cynical bitch fighting.
