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

Ian Foster: 7/10

Good on him for speaking out.

\xa0

New Zealand Rugby: 3/10

They couldn\u2019t have made a bigger disruptive mess if they set up a specialist disruptive mess committee.

\xa0

Maureen Pugh: 6/10

Because, although she is a bit out to lunch, she spoke her mind and guess what? She's allowed to without the luvvies hitting the cancel button.

\xa0

Adrian Orr: 6/10

Because in his own way, he sort of called the Government out on spending and sort of called the banks out on margins.

\xa0

Air NZ: 7/10

They are profitable again. Yes, we pay too much for a ticket, but they\u2019ve gone through hell and back, they owe a fortune, it ain\u2019t over yet - and it\u2019s imperative we have a healthy national airline.

\xa0

Puffin: 2/10

When you think you can arbitrarily rewrite books for the sake of being woke, the world is in a bad place.

\xa0

Truancy: 6/10

Because it\u2019s a crack at the problem, but it\u2019s not new and it didn't work last time.

\xa0

Super Rugby: 6/10

Because the new rules around clocks and the TMO will improve the game.

\xa0

The Breakers: 8/10

Because they are on their way to the final. They are the sports turnaround story of the year and boy do we need all the uplifting examples of winners we can get right now.
