| 1186710 | 2011-03-16 19:32:00 | Its top news because Canterbury is the home of rugby in NZ and we all know Christchurch carries the lack of talent in the rest of the country. But seriously, I think the news coverage around CHCH has been excessive for those in other centers, was thinking last week the rest of the country is probably getting a little tired of constantly hearing about CHCH. As for the world cup, I think its a realistic and predictable decision. I think rebuilding broken homes and business is far more important than a sports stadium, even considering the loss business from the cup not being here. |

Am I the only one with this opinion? Also a decision in think everyone new was going to happen +1 Battleneter not about the talent but the rebuilding ;) |
