Mark the Week: The Aitken case was a storm in a bone china, Northern Club teacup

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 war: 6/10 

Mark my words, this is closer to the end than many think. Round two of talks, a squeeze on the Strait – the Iranians are about to capitulate.  

  

Moana Pasifika: 4/10 

In a competition already lacking sparkle, this can't have helped. And also, perhaps a lesson in starting something for the right reasons, not ideological ones.  

  

The Crusaders' horses: 3/10 

That's a 30-year legacy we will miss.  

  

Ema Aitken: 7/10 

Pleased she wasn’t booted, but nor should she have been. What a storm in a bone china, Northern Club teacup.  

  

The BSA: 7/10 

Can't wait to see the back of them. Good luck and good night.

let's hope he actually answers. So this is going to
be very embarrassing, yeap, the IMF three. No one likes
a rouser, but what a wake up call. And I
