Carl Hayman was in the first three All Blacks to the breakdown more than any other player - yes, even Richie. The big guy is a champ.
there was even a moment in the game when Nisbett or Mexted actually mistook Hayman for McCaw at the breakdown. I nearly cried with happiness for the big fella.

just listened to Griffin- very interesting. makes the point even more that Key would be mad to keep Brash as Finance spokesperson (let alone any other portfolio of substance- detail not being a strong point for the Dr). I think there is a general underestimation of the significance of Brash's ego in this shamozzle
real test for Key- the deal has obviously been done to put him in, but unless he keeps English close, ie in Finance, the trouble will start.

oops try again- isn't McCully a total tosser. all reports from those there were that DD's performance went down a treat. also not sure he is " in HC's camp" so much post Zaoui. what McCully might usefully tell us is quite why if you were desperate to find the identities of people who "stole" your emails, you would ensure that no one can ever publish them, which presumably would be a give you a good place to start in identifying who has them. also if this is all about the right to privacy of personal emails, why did Brash tell NZH that he sent very few personal emails from his work address.

I miss Newsroom hugely since leaving my Parliamentary subscribed version. always on time, well organised, less intrusive ads than Scoop.
big ups to RNZ also- they have come along way in a short time.
the "more work is needed" winners are political parties. none of the sites are worth getting too excited about.
