@L_O_Z_90 @SUFCRootsHall The interesting thing is that a 4-3-3 formation has proved much more successful than a 5-3-2 line-up yet Kevin Maher always wants to revert back to 5-3-2 when 4-3-3 seems to be delivering in terms of results. And he refuses to acknowledge the negative outcomes of such choices.

New Zealand's response to Trump's tariffs must be measured but firm. Above all, the Luxon government must work with others internationally to indicate it will not be indifferent to any attempt to dismantle the rules-based trade order on which New Zealand depends.
