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 Olympics: 5/10 

Is it just me? I'm not feeling it. It could be the timezone or it could be the medal count, but I am hoping week two supplies a bit more success and a bit more drama. 

 

The Greens: 2/10 

Months of procrastination, only to culminate in more procrastination with yet another letter. Imagine if they had to actually make a decision. 

 

The Warriors: 8/10 

Yes they won and they are still in the hunt, but selling out your entire season and being the first and only NRL club ever to do so tells you about support, fandom and love. 

 

Andrew Coster: 5/10 

Read the room and got the memo. 

 

Māori wards law: 8/10 

Simeon Brown is the minister who drove it through. He got it in one. A good day for democracy. 

 

Kamala Harris: 7/10 

Since the ascendency she doesn't seem to have done a thing wrong. Money is flowing and the polls are moving.

the Worries ah cut the wire? They won? They're still
in the hunt, but selling out this week as we

fandom and low. Yes, yes, yes, we've got the use
