I mean we give big screen productions breaks for jobs. America’s cup is a lot of tourism, spectators, super yachts etc. As well it’s in the title or they should call themselves Emirates team Arsenal Isle of Wight or wateva and allow us to back another NZ team.

I’m sure there may be counter arguments, but those are my basic objections to an overseas defense.
