Give me some examples on inner city/inner west? I don't think those parts are that bad. I mean, it's no Northern Beaches but it's not bloody 3rd world. Have you ever been to Mount Druitt? I'd never step foot in that place unless I had no choice.
Inner City/Inner West is heaps nice. Was saying that Redfern's the exception.. Never been that out west, and don't really have much intention to. I feel sorry for my sister who lived there like 10 years back.
South Auckland has REALLY dodgey areas and then really rich places....Botany....Eastern Beach etc. etc.
Wasn't really aware it was "where I would like to play". It'd go for me Wellington over all other provinces but in terms of Island's I'd go South in a heartbeat. I dislike everywhere north of Wellington in a sporting context (barring some mild love for Bay of Plenty) while I like almost all of the south (Canterbury is more of a rival than a figure of hate). So yeah in terms of simming teams I'd say New Zealand > Wellington > South > North
Kicking Welly into the same team as Canterbury would make them such a gun team to hate. You just need Auckland and you're set.
Yeah I absolutely hate Cantabs....it's like a brick wall. Anything you say to them which is right they ignore but any bullshit they say they expect it'll bash you down. Arrogant ****ers. Talking about rugby fans mainly...
Michael Papps failure was beautiful. For so long Michael Papps was NZs answer to Hobbs, a cricketing giant shafted by an organisation that could not admit Canterbury was teh greatest. Despite most of the friggin team being from Canterbury, and all those rubbish Cantabrians plucked from domestics in the 90s who were rubbish even when facing the mighty Grant Bradburn.
