This is what you get when ex-allblacks tries be a sociologist. If you want a meaningful debate on date rape in the age of professional sport get an education. In short, Hayden isn't quaified to have an informed opinion on this topic, and certainly not a opinion worthy of air time. This is the sort of sexist shit spouted at the bar on a friday night. Time to stop catering to the lowest common denominator.

This is an unaided voluntary dive for the team though this time no penalty will be awarded to advance it’s racist and sexist cause. Absolutely no place for it in modern day new zealand, certainly not on the international stage. He’s obviously one of those “Johnny's” the education minister Anne Tolley is talking about and there’s so many of them. Don’t you just hate that!

Mr H a massive man in his playing days and it seems his ego moved to his mouth.In a world where eyes will be focused on the 2011 rugby world cup im glad he stepped down,and i mean how demeaning is it for an ambassador from arguably the most powerful rugby nation in the world to look on the front pages with his foot in his mouth,making an embarrasment of his country.Let rugby prevail,politics are for politicians and all we ask as a sports crazy world is to keep it out of sport.
