Mark the Week: Brooke van Velden took her moment and ran with it

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. 

 

Trump: 7/10 

It’s a circus most of the time, but what a watch. Turkey, Riyadh, free planes, mad sucking up, the Village People, trade, and the markets. Just another week. 

 

Brooke van Velden: 8/10 

Because she took her moment and ran with it, and quite possibly turned the dial her way. 

 

Smoked salmon: 7/10 

Revelation and story of the week. Letters from all over the world and a mad insight into eye-watering prices. 

 

The police: 4/10 

They promised 500 and they aren't going to deliver. That’s a loss. 

 

Ryan Fox: 8/10 

Living your dream is not only wonderful when it's you, but equally wonderful to watch. 

 

The unions and their work from home claims: 3/10 

Wouldn’t it be amazing if, just for once, they actually looked like they might like work and productivity and dedication and getting ahead, instead of their incessant misery? 

 

Auckland FC: 9/10 

The other part of the season starts this weekend. Whatever way you slice it, it's the sports story of the year domestically.
