In the wild.
Only Dalton will decide the winner.
Make that "Team Dalton", if you know how they operate. A team of very experienced people, some of them long standing mates, others very respected in their own right. Dalts may have the ultimate say, but he is a good team builder and good listener, and will jointly make the hard decissions necessary.

Absolutely agree.

Presently no breeze waiting for rain band to pass through so racing maybe a possibility but let’s hope it’s not lottery conditions.

Dunphy is a former lieutenant of Fay Richwhite merchant bank. Michael Fay is still behind the scenes with TNZ. There is a strong network of people with money all connected to Fay, Dunphy, Tindall,... 

Dalton will listen to these people.

Dunphy has no track record nor credentials with things AC.

There has been a seismic shift in all spheres of the historical flag waving cheering red sock wearing crowds of TNZ supporters regarding how slutty Dalton and the RNZYS are coming across with this whole realignment of their collective patriotic credibility.

The team of 5 million has now in reality shrunk to become a team of 150 self interested individuals some Kiwi some not and the much vaunted fountain of wealth that was promised to flow and trickle down paving the local streets with gold from the mouth of the Poisoned Chalice never materialised so let’s not pour any more publicly funded life support nor interest into a once used to be but clearly no longer flagship of Kiwi pride that has transmogrified into just another private interest concern.

A plague on all their mansions I say.

Dalton may not have any better choice. On the other hand, Dunphy appears to be  pursuing RNZYS and ignoring Dalts. Money talks?
