Mental health issues hamper almost all of us from time-to-time and some of us are gifted it full time. I thought I'd write a book on some strategies to help from a non-medical point of … Continue reading I wrote a book… →

Callaway Chrome Wow

I played golf yesterday. Not a giant surprise there I suppose, but I made the decision to play with a Callaway Chrome Soft ball. I have worked on my swing for the last 3 years to get it to a point, at least with the irons, I can play reasonable golf. My driver still requires … Continue reading Callaway Chrome Wow →

Minority rules

As is usually the case, I woke and watched the news and scrolled through http://www.stuff.co.nz for sports stories. USA v NZ Sevens Semi Final, Cape Town 9/12/18 Courtesy of USA Rugby I wanted particularly to see the results of the Sevens being played in Cape Town. New Zealand had won the week before and are … Continue reading Minority rules →

The All Blacks are Doomed

Courtesy of http://www.rugbyworldcup.com According to the latest drivel out of the North, the All Blacks are doomed. They have lost their lustre and aura and can't possibly win the World Cup for a third straight time. Steve Hansen's game plan is tired and the rush defense will mean that Ireland, England or Wales will win. … Continue reading The All Blacks are Doomed →

All Blacks Spudded

Photo Courtesy of Radio NZ 108 years it took for Ireland to beat the All Blacks. 29 attempts. The All Blacks are undoubtedly one of the greatest sides we've put out, but on the day the Irish were superb. They would've beat anyone. They ran it, they tackled, they intimidated, they found that extra gear … Continue reading All Blacks Spudded →

World Record 18 Tests on the Trot.

Yep the All Blacks did it. I must admit walking to the game I was a little nervous. The Ozzies had nothing to lose and they could've thrown everything at the All Blacks, which in patches they did. What concerns me most about last night and this year in particular is the absolute lack of … Continue reading World Record 18 Tests on the Trot. →

Ozzie Lament

Photo Courtesy of stuff.co.nz It appears that the Australian Rugby Side are blaming all and sundry for their losses (6 on the bounce) except themselves. If I may, let me add my tuppence. The Wallabies were competitive in the World Cup Final but not there in the dying stages of the game. I don't think … Continue reading Ozzie Lament →

Spy Games

Well, that's five on the trot, losses that is, for the Aussies. A truly wonderful performance from the All Blacks, from 1 to 23 the handling and skill overall was quite amazing. But, the most interesting piece of the weekend was probably the bug planted in the team room. Was it Michael Chieka? The ARU? … Continue reading Spy Games →

Rant….number 438237

Golf is a game played in New Zealand by 482,000 people with 125,000 affiliated to a golf club and over 7 million rounds played annually. I'm no doctor but I think that equates to roughly 10% of the population playing and 3% of the population are members of a club each playing 15 rounds a … Continue reading Rant….number 438237 →

Realisation from a well placed comment…

hi y'all sorry it's been a while. But what a time to return. The Olympics- a time every four years when people collectively can get fired up about sports they don't care about. I have to confess I'm much the same...I get swept up in it all. Sevens was on today and the girls got … Continue reading Realisation from a well placed comment… →
