Yeah, on reflection this is absolutely correct - and that scares the shark out of me. Nobody wants this imagery

edit: has Foley actually commented on the negative connotations that the Knights nickname holds in New Zealand?

Yes. Interview with AV in the Herald Nov 25. FOLEY said he "wasn't wedded" to any name at that stage, and was aware of previous Knights name and dire history & that this knowledge would " enter his calculations" in arriving at the new name.
