Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton’s FMG Stadium Waikato could be hosting one of its last All Black tests in July as competition to host the nation’s top sporting side heats up.

Welcome to the world of $3 a litre plus for fuel.

As the average price of 91 octane petrol across the country rose to $3.32/L at the start of the working week and politicians nervously eyed storage figures, Waikato households feeling the strain were offered little but hope.
