A team of varying native blood lines play a team of Scots, again in variable genetic links to the celts of yore, in Whangarei, complete with a half time reveal of Native prancing and dancing, perhaps to imitate the bigly half time extravaganza that accompanies the finals of the American Footy game where the forward pass is celebrated, at “Super Bowl”

Now there is a team making up the numbers in “Super Rugby Pacific” that does not manage to reach out to include Japan, Canada or the US, as if their links to the Pacific is somehow different? although Moana Pacifica complete with their English Lock forward now are facing stormy waters with the Funding from various Government agencies under review.

So when only a very few rugby players do not make the racist qualification to be considered Maori, will the nonsense ever end.

Hell I was born in the Kaikoura Hospital, eighty plus years ago, situated on the hill overlooking Takahanga Marae, almost within reach of an afterbirth fling, maybe born just a century too late? who knows?
