Here we are in NZ and looking down the barrel at a long litany of losses (a nice bit of alliteration for you both to enjoy):
The All Blacks
The Kiwis
The Black Craps – World Cup
The Black Craps – 20Twenty
The Black Craps – South Africa
The Black Craps – Hadlee-Chappellee (oops, sorry, haven’t lost that series yet)

Yes – you.
Have you got pink balls?
Hard ones that could really do some damage.

3. You realise that A-League teams have each have a gazillion Brazilians
The Phoenix had/have four until today when Retro Ricki kicked two [...]

Melbourne Cup day so it would be almost criminal not to mention the Cup.
As for criminals, it’s great that you no longer need to commit a crime to go to OZ!
As for cups, at least we won this one.
Yes, a NZ bred horse Efficient has won yet another Melbourne Cup. Given the dearth of cups [...]

The Black Caps – beaten to a pulp in the semis
Team NZ America’s Cup – knocked out in the final round
The All Blacks – favourites to win, plenty of points in the early round, knocked out
