The ABs catching a plane isn't really news either, but that seems to lead the headlines :)

God its ridiculous isn't it, is there ever an evening news programme when the All Blacks don't get a mention?



The peripheral coverage of ABs on free-to-air tv is a reflection of Sky's control of broadcasting rights. Prime will have more access to ABs news, delayed of course. God forbid that a non-Sky channel could stump up chump change ($200,000)  and be a broadcaster who developed a 'minority' sport in NZ. It may be the biggest global game but that sort of behaviour, in NZ, is just not rugby!
