THE POST BEATING UP THE HURRICANES

The Post has chosen to ignore the Hurricanes Super Pacific rugby team most days for the past several years even though they represent the wide area that engulfs the Hurricanes and is the only daily newspaper as such in the market.

So that the Hurricanes franchise has suffered hundreds of thousands of dollars losses year after year of late, is due in part to a lack of newsworthy publicity and promotion on the part of the The Post.

Let's take last weekend's Hurricanes pre-season clash with the Highlanders in Dunedin. No build up to this televised contest The one review in The Post did not mention a single Hurricanes player or coach in the entire text.

That the Hurricanes are playing only two pre-competition matches while the other franchises are playing three or four is probably due to financial constraints.

Shame on The Post. But one must admit its days are numbered as a daily newspaper and worthy of being the metropolitan newspaper of Greater Wellington and the newspaper that succeeded The Dominion and Evening Post that one would buy in Nelson, Taupo, Napier and New Plymouth.

It has to be said that the Wellington Phoenix men and women football teams fare (a little) better in coverage in the sports pages of The Post.
