Blah blah blah. Who cares. To the winner go the spoils. Crying about it makes no difference. We run the show. You’re merely a passenger. A spectator. A silent minority lol
What show? 
no cash, no venue, and entrants dropping like flies… missed deadlines  headline act not signed up to the team.. 

GD putting on a real show ;-) 

“We run the show” you taking  responsibility then? No thought not..

As for Karma, yeah OTAUS went offshore, has slower boat, lost. But the boat was in process when Karma kicked in. NZ will be working on its boat and systems after the venue is announced, Karma is waiting.

Who cares. There WILL be a next cycle. There WILL be a venue. There are AT LEAST 4 entrants, no one cares about missed deadlines. The headline act is the match which WILL happen.

We won, we make the calls, we call the shots and you cry about them.

GD has and will continue to put on a FANTASTIC show just like he has in the past.

Haters gon hate.

Team NZ!!!!

Living in the past, it’s AC37 now and you ain’t won l, have lost verdier, not found a venue a sponsor/cash good will , not signed Blair or Pete 

pretty decent jobs list to crack on with, run along now , YOU are part of the team.

not sure if this has been picked up, but it seems that the Deed of Gift criteria have been extended to the protocol verbatim.

this is problematic for EB and Societe Nautique Geneve.

obviously any swiss club won't meet the criteria, so even being a 2 time winner and multiple challenger they don't comply now? Can Malawi, Nepal and Kazakhstan also not enter? 

or is there wiggle room

No one has won, but only one team has the silverware, and the ability to make the rules.

Pete and Blair are on retainers until the end of the month, Verdier isn't a huge loss, a venue will be announced in due course, and once a venue is announced, we'll have the cash.

Pretty tough job list, but its something Dalts has done before, and its something he'll do again.

Run along now sunshine. Haters gon hate.

Agree Verdier's not such a loss, for ETNZ this time around. I believe he wasn't that comfortable in the team environment in any case.

Dan's team and his tech tools will fill that void pretty well.

Is For going to do a "if NZ loses it's because the Cup was rigged" pivot like TFG?
We've already seen that with the Herbie and all the other bullshit from these guys. Of course they will moan about it being rigged.

Fuck, that desperate for people to argue with searching up posts two months old? 
 

still not  fixed the venue, Pete or the cash  ;-) x 
There are no boats for Pete to sail yet, so not a big deal that they're not signed.  They've signed Nathan Outteridge and there are more signings to come once the ball gets rolling.

In a couple of moths the venue will be confirmed, in between there is Christmas and New years, so whats the issue? The other teams are clearly on board with the protocol, entries open in December, so teams will start entering very soon.

After Christmas Pete and Blair will be on board again, and Team NZ will be just as strong as it was last time, if not even stronger.

No one cares that its not done yet, except for you, because you're a hater.

Come March 2022, its game over for you, and you can crawl back under your bridge never to be seen again.

Tik tok. Times almost up for you sunshine.

The Americas is by definition, "rigged"

The Defender makes its own rules. So of course its rigged.

Thats what makes it so hard to win. Thats why its the pinnacle of yacht racing, because its truly an achievement to win a rigged competition.
