 I don't know, I was asking.

All RK's points are news to me as well, for instance I thought Waimak was going quite well, and from a purely selfish viewpoint it's good they can put sides into the Div 1 Juniors because we need more clubs of that standard through the grades, not less.

Never said they weren't doing well Foal, you know me, just me looking at the bigger picture. 
Having said that if I was a parent of a player and a supporter of the club I would be disappointed they haven't progressed further, seem to have plateaued in the last 3-4 years. I have great respect for the work they have done in keeping the merged club going but my impression is that Rangiora in particular were a stronger club on their own years back when they were just a small town club. Still think Waimak is less than the sum of the 2 parts but agree they do good things and are a good model to follow.
Oh, and don't take conjecture for news :)
