The Titans should hold their heads in shame for not resigning Tyrone Roberts. Now he’s off to Super League when a decent offer here would’ve kept our best player on the Coast.

Re: Tom Tate postage stamp you proved your ignorance with that comment about Peter Garrett. Maybe you should read his book.

The next time you mow the footpath in front of your house don’t be surprised if some nutter from this council hands you a fine for interfering with council property. – Barney

Parenting lessons! Why is it always the schools that have to teach children about common sense and especially things that should be taught/learned at home? – Mary

Tragic news with boating accidents. When will this country going to draft a law that no one can be in a boat not wearing a life jacket? – Roy

Ten of thousands of Kiwis will be watching the All Blacks at Suncorp on Saturday night and all of them live in Australia. Very sad when you have to leave your homeland for a better life elsewhere.

Uproar in US about Harvey Weinstein, yet the President is Donald Trump. Don’t get it.
