There’s something deeply likable about New Zealand.

Natural beauty everywhere. Nice people. Anti-earnest, mostly silly, self-deprecating humour that feels engineered to make the rest of the world seem emotionally overcooked. Also: the best kit in world sport, courtesy of the All-Blacks. Manus. Flight of the Conchords. Crowded House (controversial). Th’ Dudes. The Clean. Split Enz. Taika Waititi. Peter Jackson turning a country with more sheep than people into Middle-earth. 

Sweet as, cuz.

The tour returning to NZ after a 50-year absence is, understandably, a very big deal for the locals. And the surfers seem to be loving it too. Every second surfer’s Instagram story currently comprises lines grom froth. Homemade signs.

To offset this quaint Antipodean mise-en-scène, however, we’ve also got Mikey and Stace beaming in via Zoom to dispense gambling advice to the masses. Though “gambling advice” undersells it somewhat. Some of the analysis has been genuinely insightful — sharp reads on form, conditions, psychology, heat draws. The sort of stuff you could almost mistake for serious sports commentary.

Unfortunately, all of it is semi-irrelevant.
