Mark the Week: Yet again Andrew Coster looks hopelessly out of touch

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Thursdays

At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all.   The New Zealand Rugby Union: 4/10 By all means, hire who you want, when you want - but try to look like you know what the hell you are doing in the process. After all, you are only the national game.   Andrew Coster: 3/10 Yet again he looks hopelessly out of touch. The apology came way too late and I'm not sure a caravan solves it.   Stuart Nash: 2/10 Because he's in charge of police and a local who dismissed other locals. And he's in charge of forestry and has pissed off the East Coasters as well.   Chris Hipkins: 3/10 Because he is supposed to be in charge of the other two fools and has seen his leadership honeymoon come to a grinding halt this week, with a tin ear and a massive amount of condescension. Hence, leading to yet more apologies.   The Warriors: 7/10 Tonight's the night full of hope and expectation. This. Is. Our. Year.   Rob Campbell: 5/10 He was foolish to ever think he could get away with what he said. But, as a supporter of free speech he was defending his corner and I kind of get that.   Grapes: 7/10 The harvest is underway, as is the kiwifruit, which reminds us that yes some have got whacked but a lot haven't. And may the sun shine during picking and may the returns be profitable.   Doctors: 6/10 Because the idea to train more is a good and obvious one. So why then has the Government not even replied?   King Charles: 8/10 For booting his reprobate son and his narcissistic Mrs out of Frogmore Cottage.   LISTEN ABOVE FOR MIKE HOSKING'S FULL WEEK IN REVIEWSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
