Between the Lines
ACCIDENTS
There were a few accidents around the weekend. Videos of the accidents were up before the first responders arrived at the scene. Drive carefully.
SPORTS FIGHT
Fights in sporting games are not limited to rugby. A football match over the weekend had fans and teams invading the pitch in a free-for-all fight. Where is the sportsmanship?
U18 GAME
The Samoa U18 national side is due to face the Waikato Chiefs Under 18 side next month. A good team needs to go and hope that the result is not a cricket score.
STOLEN
Local fashion designers are unhappy. Some of their designs and prints have been stolen and are being sold on sites like Alibaba. Theft of intellectual property is a serious crime.
NOVEMBER
While the Manu Samoa are not involved in the November test, we still have a team we can cheer on in that window. The nation will be cheering on Toa Samoa against England.
VEHICLE PASSES
There is an urgent wait for the authorities to announce applications for vehicle passes to access areas that could be closed during CHOGM. Businesses need access to some areas.
