Be good to somehow get media pressure on the govt to reimburse NZ Football for the lost revenue for the cancelled game against Fiji. After all, govt policy has resulted in the cost.

There's no need to argue over the political legitimacy of reimbursements either. Since when did politicians operate on principle alone? Public opinion is what matters to these hoodlums. So let's put the pressure on.

If they can fund a bloody "Parliamentary Rugby World Cup" team, they can reimburse New Zealand Football. $9 billion bloody surplus, no excuses. I'm absolutely livid with the Government at the moment.

NZ Cricket were compensated that summer when they wouldn't let the Zimbabwae cricket team come play here.
 
Although I recall the ICC pinging NZ cricket nearly a million dollars in fines.
 
Lets hope as a result Football NZ does cash in financially....thus helping us draw some better known nations.

Hi DKP - it is the hypocrisy that stinks here. Conspiracy theorists would concur, that the Foriegn secretary and other rugby finatics, including the sports minister are using their authority to quell any additional interest in the rise & rise of FOOTBALL, given the demise of the national code of recent days

Hi Phil,
 
Celtic should sue [on behalf  supporters of FOOTBALL in NZ], the NZ government for emotional blackmail
