        Norway are not as good as they once were, but are still ranked 12th – so are still favoured to beat Switzerland and go through from the group.

        A win over Philippines is all that is required to qualify now.

        PS A little secret Wendi Henderson and Sarah Gregorius former Ferns played at Harcourt Park and Maidstone Park for the club down the road from the PM's electorate office.

    Now that we've won, I don't think selling tickets will be too hard.

    Would be like the guys beating Scotland.

    Tl,dr; the Waipareira Trust breached charities laws by making loans, including $100,000 to Tamihere’s failed campaign for the Auckland mayoralty and, to Te Pāti Māori, eventually more than $200,000 for that year’s election campaign, lied about doing so, and used alleged bullying and threatening behaviour in response to Charities Services.

    And nobody's any the wiser on whether or not the money has been repaid.

    Regulators are still in the dark as to whether $385,307 advanced for chief executive John Tamihere’s campaigns has been repaid after a long-running Charities Services investigation into Waipareira Trust found hundreds of thousands of dollars in political donations breached the Charities Act.

    A sometimes heated three-year investigation into West Auckland social services charity Waipareira was finally closed in May after a formal warning notice was issued in December determining its political donations – to Tamihere’s failed Auckland Mayoral bid in 2019, and towards Te Pāti Māori’s 2020 election campaign – were a breach of the Charities Act.

    The lead-up to closing the file required Tamihere to be served by Waipareira with a demand for repayment of his interest-free related-party loan used for campaign expenses, and the trust formally pledging to refrain from funding or supporting political parties and candidates in future.
