Mixing politics and sport is a bad idea

Perhaps if they focussed more on tackling and catching the ball instead of expending all their energy performing a haka trying too hard to attack the government they may not have been thrashed so badly.

Winston is really on form lately. Somehow the Rugby players thought their job was to share their views on the elected Government of NZ, rather than just play rugby. By doing so, their message to the 50% of NZers who voted for the Government is we hate you, and don’t want your support.

Could you imagine the outcry if a NZ sports team had made derogatory comments about Jacinda as part of their haka?
