It's been terribly generous of Australian rugby to give us this kind of competition boost, and yet Kiwis are laughing in their faces. Come on Australian Rugby, you're better than this. I don't know what's going on with Australian Rugby. One Australian journalist friend sent me a message yesterday asking if I had seen anything funny over the weekend, "apart from Australians trying to play rugby". In today's Herald, Wynne Gray pointed out that so far New Zealand teams have played 24 matches against Australian opposition, winning 20, drawing one, and losing just three.
