The Apprentice

Too much of a nice guy. The business end is more than a game it's a fight.

Although I would have probably fired him on accepting too much stupidity in his team.

i got some respect for him having the guts to take the blame but yeah you dont get too many 2nd chances that way

Paul is definitely way too loyal towards his team mates. Which is fair enough but that mentality will never get you far on the show.

Can't accuse the girls of being loyal to their teammates. Looks like I was a week early on my two to get fired call.

Paul was always there just to make up the numbers.

It seems one of the men will win it.

Paul had some good merits and no doubt some people will find his integrity and honestly very appealing to their line of business. I hope he gets a good well earned job.

The thing that lets a number of apprentices down is their lack of market knowledge on some dynamics. If you don't know the market, get the information correct either by sound research or grab an advice from expert in that field or you are cooked.

Tourism was obviously not their field expertise, so call in a favour from someone who does or make a deal with someone who will. An hour consulting with some called- expert can make life easy.

He ruined what was shaping to be a damn good board room.

Both project managers should have been fired, that was disgraceful...

Well the price thing was stupid. Both team had it wrong and was heading to failure. Then to avoid stupidity, they both told to make it free and make the experience great to fit the other two criteria. And at the end, the pricing/cost was still in played as a criteria in selecting the winning team.

That I thought was very unfair, because the difference between the two teams was about a couple of hundred dollars. I am guessing that a couple of hundred dollars would have been how much that Maori Greeting Group would have costed. The idea that was Richards, which saved his bacon but plunged this team mates into trouble.

Honesty, a lazy $20 for a tourism 3 hour ride in the city would be a killer in this one-off task.

Yes, number 8 should have one guy to follow up on that SkyCity fellow. Although they were told that the fellow is not at work until 3pm (which is way too late). You can't really trust the word of a underling and should have grab someone else in SkyCity who was in charge and can do the selling for them on the spot or directed them to their people. Still they had a heavy price tag and it was no chance to get it sorted.

Tell me why there had to be about four guys from Number 8 to try and met that SkyCity fellow?? You only need two guys at the most in order to bounce off ideas and support each other in the task.

This might not mean anything, but Linda Slade is a friend wth Eugene Dadi on Facebook.

It means that she survived on the show until they met the Phoenix players in person and she is a fan of the Wellington Phoenix.

The first half of last night was cringe worthy. Thought Dave stuck up for himself well though. He played nice to start but when the others saw him as an easy target he showed what idiots they were. I think Dave will make it to the end.

and Dadi spades chicks hard

And what about the other 2,500+ other Facebook friends including Tony Lochhead?? . . . are you telling he's that busy that he hasn't got time for his beautiful wife???

True...
Well, anyway:

Where on earth did you get that?

Stop stalking her facebook page . . . .

Hahaha in this world if you on facebook its fair game :P

Woah so Terry was married to Ingrid Mole. I have been living under a rock

Right, who is heading home tonight??

A girl, I know I guessed wrong last time, but I still think the boys left are better than at least 2 of the girls. Will be fun watching the couple fight it out. Although if it comes down to him or her I bet he gets himself fired. He has stuck up for  her before

It's the couple tonight right?

2 people are being sent home tonight i think

yup 2 are, it must end in disaster again, going by the shorts for it over the last week

argh someone just say why her beds in the lounge! 

creatively, no 8 should have it, even though it appears from comments they stuff the rooms up a little. athena's was bland in comparison.finishing looked dodgy as funk from both, athenas more so.

meena perhaps to go? dont know who else would go

Richard .. gone by lunchtime

Meena... must be going as well

Catherine smirking

i think they should follow through with their threats and fire the lot of them

catherine is always smirking. i guess they are really headstrong but can't be team players. probably why they have so many issues

She looks like she's at a gangsta party by mistake...

That was dumb i didnt want Richard to go. thank god Meena is gone too. Now just 2 more annoying Athena members to go

Try insect repellent.

She would get it alright.
