Mark the Week: The All Blacks will win well, because thats what they do

Published: Aug. 15, 2024, 10:39 p.m.

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.\xa0

\xa0

Adrian Orr: 3/10\xa0

Adrian isn't my hero of the week. He did what he should have done, but the way he did it yet again reminds us that the Covid experiment and the economic carnage that went with it is the result of people who could have done a vastly better job.\xa0

\xa0

Elon Musk: 4/10\xa0

When your reputation is already hurting the value of your car company, interviewing a mate on your other company platform, only for that to not work either, isn't a good look.\xa0

\xa0

Kamala Harris: 7/10\xa0

It's been a week of evidence that, to this point at least, shows the \u201cswitch out\u201d has worked. People are engaged, the polls have closed, and the momentum is hers.\xa0

\xa0

Crime: 2/10\xa0

41,000 up to 50,000 retail incidents. For all the noise, promises and headlines I'm pretty sure the stats show it's going the wrong way.\xa0

\xa0

The crime committee set up to reverse the retail crime stats: 2/10\xa0

Despite the promise the first ideas were weeks away, weeks later they haven't even met.\xa0

\xa0

The All Blacks: 6/10\xa0

They will win well, because that\u2019s what they do, and more than 25,000 will watch it. I hope.\xa0
