Re: Merge the NRC and NPC... NOW.
trans-Tasman record now reading 0-15 I agree the current Supe is dead, but the plan is to play even more TT matches? Interesting, but not convinced. Don't get me wrong, Trans-Tasman matches are good, but what needs to be increased is quality of them (competitive) more than quantity. First focus sho...

Merge the NRC and NPC... NOW.
Sounds like a plan. Make it happen. f you can't beat 'em, join 'em. The Australian game has hit rock bottom in Super Rugby, with their trans-Tasman record now reading 0-15 and their conference leaders (the Brumbies) with four fewer points than New Zealand's bottom side (the Blues), so it's no surpri...

Re: Should fine amounts be linked to salary
When I was at uni, it cost about $5 to park all day at the uni. If you didnt pay, it was a $16 fine. Typically, you would be caught once a week. Most people just didnt bother paying as the fine was cheaper than buying tickets. I think the council has cottoned on now as the fine is much higher. Hmm,...
