I just think that if the Canterbury Muslim community finds the name offensive/divisive, let them put out a joint statement and say so and go from there. I'm getting sick of all these non-Muslims taking it upon themselves to decide what Muslims do/do not find offensive and what should/should not be changed.
If they are going to go down the path of no ancient conflict or death, then what Super team names do hold up? Not Highlanders, Chiefs, Hurricanes, Rebels, Sharks, Stormers, Lions, Bulls, Jaguares, Sunwolves...
BF7's had one of their worst tournaments in ages. Lost heavily to France, drew with Russia, beat Japan, then lost to USA in quarter final.
@jegga I have a disabled sibling. Shit like this fucks me off to the absolute maximum.
@taniwharugby Did we ever hear what happened about the (Nelson?) firefighter in a similar position?
Edit to add: Maybe there are a fuckton of details missing, but I'm so confused why that family would be denied residency when they are clearly self sufficient and contributing to the economy, plus providing a lot of jobs for a small business.
@JC Either that or she is actually Smurfette/living beside an incel commune.
@jegga It is indeed the infamous Verity. Apparently men catcall/drive up and invite her for rides every time she ventures outside.
@taniwharugby Could they possibly get a more hardcore left wing pairing than Campbell and Holt?
So, TVNZ is continuing its yay TV3 hiring policy. Jack Tame is leaving Breakfast to host Q&A, John Campbell replacing him.
