Heads at NZRFU top management should roll. Instead of folllowing Zinny's strange comment about players boycotting, perhaps thay could use some of those heads as balls to be kicked into the crowds. Then again who really knows what happened in those negotiations etc. It's all a bit smelly to me. But then when it comes to ANY media anywhere reporting anything straight it has never ever happened and never will. For all our North American brethren who don't know its all about a wee minority sport (with a huge religious following) called Rugby that has the best players in the world coming from a couple of feircely self reliant countries in the south pacific.  |  IP: Logged Paul Cassidy Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 549 From: Auckland, New Zealand Registered: Aug 2001 posted 04-24-2002 04:39 PM                        Well it,s ANZAC day here in Auckland (and it,s a wet Day)and all the old soldiers both here and in Australia would have marched to the various War Memorial sites in the 2 countries to remember the fallen of the of the Past Wars of the modern age ....let us not forget. http://onenews.nzoom.com/news_detail/0,1227,96274-1-7,00.html  |  IP: Logged Brian Hogan Expert Film Handler Posts: 119 From: Charlotte, North Carolina, USA Registered: Jul 2001 posted 04-28-2002 03:00 PM                     long live the kiwis! they are top notch!  |  IP: Logged
