When the choke gets beyond a joke

I'm not over it either. To me it adds another dimension to the sport. Without doubt the All Blacks are the most successful team ever - except at the one that matters the most. It is good for the game - no one would be interested to see the All Blacks win the RWC every four years. One day they monkey will be off their backs. I'm just hoping it's more like a gorilla by then.

Scaffolding

You've made moving to Australia an art,
where your scaffolding skills set you apart.
And you brag about your teams skill and might,
But the World Cup's f@#$ing Kiwi Kryptonite.

Why are there no Kiwis in heaven?

Coz they haven't been able to build scaffoling that high yet.

Obviously you dont how to get to heaven? Clue: you certainly can't get there with your own efforts....

p.s. David Kirk was the CEO of Fairfax media... NZer in top Aussie job....

Oh and there is a certain Robbie someone.... with the Wobs... lol

D. Kirk I think you will find renounced the dark side and is an Oz citizen.

Renounced? Why would he have to do that - you can be a dual citizen after all.

David Kirk is definitely an Australian citizen now.

I guess he wanted to be able to vote. It's not like NZers living in Oz don't have rights and access to pretty much everything else in Australia.

Have they changed the electoral laws? Cause my mum & dad had to vote when they were living in Aus (I was a nipper at the time) and they never had Aus citizenship.

I believe that only Australian citizens can vote in Federal elections. NZers who were permanent residents in Australia and went on the electoral roll before some date in 1984 can still vote in some states in state and local council elections.

Surprises me, as you say must have wanted to vote. According to this article he has dual citizenship;
