NAU MAI HAERE MAI KI TE WIKI O TE REO MAORI ME TE HOTAKA O ONO KARAKA. WELCOME TO ONE NEWS THIS MAORI LANGUAGE WEEK. WE BEGIN TONIGHT WITH DEVELOPING NEWS. 19 FIREFIGHTERS HAVE BEEN KILLED WHILE BATTLING A WILDFIRE IN THE UNITED STATES. THE FAST-MOVING BLAZE, STARTED BY LIGHTNING, IS STILL BURNING OUT OF CONTROL NEAR THE SMALL TOWN OF YARNELL, NORTHWEST OF PHOENIX, ARIZONA. WE'LL GO LIVE TO US CORRESPONDENT JACK TAME FOR MORE SHORTLY. FIRST, HIS REPORT. IT'S AMERICA'S DEADLIEST WILDFIRE IN 30 YEARS. CREWS HAD BEEN BATTLING THROUGH THE WEEKEND WHEN IT SUDDENLY ROARED OUT OF CONTROL. THE WIND-DRIVEN, FAST-MOVING FLAMES RAVAGING THE TOWN OF YARNELL, DESTROYING 500 BUILDINGS AND KILLING 19 FIREFIGHTERS. IT'S BELIEVED THE LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT HAS LOST NEARLY ITS ENTIRE CREW. THEY WERE ELITE FIREFIGHTERS, KNOWN AS 'HOTSHOTS'. WE'RE DOING NEXT OF KIN NOTIFICATIONS AS WE SPEAK. IT'S A VERY TRAGIC SITUATION, AND WE'RE WORKING TO DO A FULL INVESTIGATION. THE CREW WERE SPOTTED BY A HELICOPTER SURROUNDED BY FLAMES. THEY'D DEPLOYED THEIR FIRE SHELTERS ` TENT-LIKE STRUCTURES SUPPOSED TO PROVIDE A SHIELD. BUT IT WASN'T ENOUGH. THEIR BODIES HAVE NOW BEEN RECOVERED. THIS FIRE WAS VERY RADICAL IN ITS BEHAVIOUR. THE HEATWAVE IN THE SOUTH-WEST HAS TURNED SCRUB INTO A TINDERBOX. IT'S THOUGHT A LIGHTNING STRIKE PROVIDED THE SPARK. THIS FIRE WAS VERY RADICAL IN ITS BEHAVIOUR. THE FIELDS WERE DRY; THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY WAS LOW. THE WINDS COMING OUT OF THE SOUTH, IT TURNED AROUND ON US BECAUSE OF THE MONSOON ACTION THIS AFTERNOON. THAT'S WHAT CAUSED THE DEATH ` THE BLAZE NOW COVERS 800HA. LOCAL COMMUNITIES HAVE BEEN EVACUATED. 200 FIREFIGHTERS ARE ON THE FRONT LINE. ANOTHER 200 ARE BEING DRAFTED IN. THEY NOW FACE THE SAME DEADLY FLAMES THAT COST THE LIVES OF THEIR COLLEAGUES. JOINING US NOW LIVE WITH MORE, OUR US CORRESPONDENT, JACK TAME. JACK, IT'S VERY HOT THERE. WHAT CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY IN COMING DAYS? AS YOU HEARD, ANOTHER 200 FIREFIGHTERS ARE COMING IN FORECASTERS IN THAT AREA HAVE BEEN WARNING TEMPS COULD BE AS HIGH AS 48 DEGREES CELSIUS THE REAL CONCERN IS ABOUT THE WELL-BEING OF PEOPLE IN THOSE STATES PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HOSPITALISED TEMPS THREATENING RECORDS SOME RELIEF FURTHER DOWN LINE COLDER FRONT MOVING THROUGH AS HOT AND COLD FRONTS MIX, HIGH LIKELIHOOD OF LIGHTNING THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE. TWO HIGH-POWERED CABINET MINISTERS ARE BEING SENT TO CHRISTCHURCH AFTER REVELATIONS THE CITY WILL LOSE ITS AUTHORITY TO ISSUE BUILDING CONSENTS FROM NEXT MONDAY. IT'S THE FIRST TIME EVER CONSENT ACCREDITATION HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN FROM A COUNCIL IN NZ. MIKE THORPE REPORTS. NO, THIS IS UTTERLY REMARKABLE. THE MEDIA MISSILE LAUNCHED TWO WEEKS AGO TODAY HIT ITS TARGET. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT IANZ HAS EVER REVOKED ACCREDITATION FOR A BUILDING CONSENT AUTHORITY. BUT THE MAYOR IS ADAMANT THAT COUNCIL WILL STILL BE DOING ALL THE SAME CONSENT WORK THAT THEY'D ALWAYS DONE SO WHAT CHANGES WHEN ACCREDITATION EXPIRES AT THE END OF THE WEEK? WELL, I'M NOT SURE WHAT CHANGES BETWEEN 5 O'CLOCK ON FRIDAY AND 9 O'CLOCK ON MONDAY MORNING. I'M NOT PRIVY TO WHAT GOES ON BEHIND THE DOORS IN WELLINGTON. AND HE MAY NOT KNOW FOR A DAY OR TWO YET. ON WEDNESDAY IS THAT MINISTER BROWNLEE AND TREMAIN WILL BE TRAVELLING TO CHRISTCHURCH TO TALK TO THE CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL ABOUT NEXT STEPS, PUT ON THE TABLE SOME PROPOSALS TO ALLOW PROGRESS TO CONTINUE AND TO SEE WHERE WE CAN GO NEXT. THAT IS LIKELY TO BE A GOVERNMENT APPOINTED OBSERVER. HAVING SOMEBODY THAT'S PERHAPS BASED IN CHRISTCHURCH OR MEETING MORE REGULARLY WITH THE COUNCIL FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE. BOB PARKER SAYS HIS STAFF IS DOING EVERYTHING THAT IT'S BEEN ASKED. IT'S A BIG SLAP IN THE FACE FOR THEM, BECAUSE THEY REALLY ARE DOING A GREAT JOB. WE'RE DOING EVERYTHING THAT COMES OVER OUR COUNTER WITHIN THE APPROVED TIMELINES OF 20 DAYS. ADDING TO THE PERCEPTION THAT CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL IS DRAGGING THE CHAIN IS THE PERFORMANCE OF NEIGHBOURING DISTRICT COUNCILS. IN THE NORTH, WAIMAKARIRI DISTRICT IS PROCESSING CONSENTS IN JUST 15 DAYS, WHILST FURTHER SOUTH IN SELWYN, THE FAST GROWING AREA THAT IT IS, JUST 12 AND A HALF. CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL SAYS IT COULD RE-APPLY FOR THEIR ACCREDITATION IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS. IANZ SAY THAT COULD BE AMBITIOUS. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF ISSUES, OBVIOUSLY, THAT THEY WILL HAVE TO LOOK AT, AND IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME. ONE THING THE COUNCIL SEEMS DESPERATELY SHORT OF. MIKE THORPE, ONE NEWS. THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR PETROL COULD SOON BE NUDGING A NEW RECORD HIGH. GOVERNMENT FUEL TAXES PUSHED THE PRICE HIGHER OVERNIGHT, AND OTHER FACTORS POINT TO FURTHER INCREASES IN THE NEAR FUTURE. WILL HINE HAS THIS UPDATE. FILLING UP AT THE PUMP JUST GOT MORE PAINFUL. EXCISE TAX ON PETROL ROSE 3C OVERNIGHT. THE MONEY IS EARMARKED FOR CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS LIKE THESE ` THE NATIONAL ROADS OF SIGNIFICANCE. EVERYWHERE YOU GO, YOU USE UP $20, YOU KNOW? SO, YEAH, DEFINITELY NOTICE IT. IT'S A BIT DEPRESSING BECAUSE, NO, IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE GOING DOWN. THE INCREASE TAKES GOVERNMENT FUEL TAXES TO ABOUT 65C A LITRE, OR 30% OF THE PRICE YOU PAY AT THE PUMP. THE OTHER 70% IS MADE UP OF THE IMPORTED COST OF PETROL, THE AMOUNT THAT GOES TO THE FUEL RETAILER IN NZ, AND GST. THE PRICE OF 91 OCTANE FUEL IS NOW JUST SHY OF THE RECORD PRICE, 222.9. A RETURN TO THOSE LEVELS BECKONS IF OIL PRICES CONTINUE TO RISE AND THE KIWI DOLLAR KEEPS SLIDING. IT'S NOW DOWN 8C IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS. IT'S NOT A GOOD TREND. UH, REALLY, FROM A MOTORIST'S POINT OF VIEW, FINGERS CROSSED, THE EXCHANGE RATE DOESN'T FALL ANY FURTHER AND MAYBE HOPEFULLY THE COMMODITY PRICES MIGHT FALL RATHER THAN RISE. EVERY INCREASE HITS PEOPLE LIKE REBA POTTINGER, A HOME-SUPPORT NURSE IN SOUTHLAND, IN THE POCKET. SHE SAYS HER MILEAGE ALLOWANCE LAGS BEHIND THE TRUE COST OF FUEL. IT'S VERY TOUGH, AND I THINK AT THE MOMENT, UM, THE WAY PETROL INCREASES ARE, WHEN IT GOES UP, THERE WILL BE A BIG RATE OF PEOPLE GIVING UP THEIR JOBS, BECAUSE IT JUST WON'T BE SUSTAINABLE ANY MORE FOR THEM TO DO THEIR JOBS. AUCKLAND RESIDENTS MIGHT SOON HAVE EVEN MORE TO PAY THROUGH A REGIONAL FUEL TAX. SUCH TAXES AREN'T CURRENTLY ALLOWED FOR BY LAW, BUT A COUNCIL ADVISORY GROUP IS LOOKING AT WHETHER TO PUSH FOR ONE AS A WAY TO HELP PAY FOR THE CITY'S TRANSPORT PROJECTS. AND WITH EXCISE TAX STILL TO RISE ANOTHER 6C IN THE NEXT TWO YEARS, THESE PRICES MAY BE HEADING JUST ONE WAY. WILL HINE, ONE NEWS. A NEPHEW OF MANA PARTY MP HONE HARAWIRA HAS BEEN JAILED FOR THREE YEARS FOR ASSAULTING AND ROBBING A BOY (12) IN A HOME INVASION. THE BOY'S PARENTS TOLD ONE NEWS THE ATTACK'S CAUSED HORRENDOUS DAMAGE TO THEIR SON. THEY SPOKE EXCLUSIVELY TO HELEN CASTLES. MAU HARAWIRA IS 30 YEARS OLD. HE AND HIS CO-OFFENDER WERE DRUNK WHEN THEY FOLLOWED A 12-YEAR-OLD BOY INTO HIS HOME AND BEAT HIM UP IN HIS BEDROOM. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE GUTLESS AND COWARDLY OFFENDING. THEY STOLE THE BOY'S PLAYSTATION, SOME GAMES AND A BASEBALL CAP, LEAVING HIM BRUISED AND BATTERED. THEY RAPED THE WAIROA OF MY SON. WE CAN'T IDENTIFY THE VICTIM, HIS MUM OR HER PARTNER, BUT THEY WANTED TO SPEAK OUT ABOUT THE IMPACT THIS HAS HAD ON THEIR WHANAU. THE EMOTIONAL DAMAGE THAT IT'S HAD ON OUR SON HAS BEEN HORRENDOUS. UM, ALL OF A SUDDEN, A 12-YEAR-OLD BOY HAS HAD TO GROW UP MAU HARAWIRA IS THE NEPHEW OF MP HONE HARAWIRA, AND THE SON OF ANTI-VIOLENCE ACTIVIST HINEWHARE HARAWIRA. HIS GRANDMOTHER, TITEWHAI HARAWIRA, CONTACTED THE VICTIM'S FAMILY. IT WAS GOOD THAT TITEWHAI RANG UP AND TRIED TO BROKER PEACE, BUT IT WAS BULLSHIT WHAT HONE SAID. HONE HARAWIRA TOLD MEDIA, WHEN THE CASE WAS FIRST PUBLICISED, THAT HE WANTED TO TRY TO RESOLVE THE MATTER WITH THE FAMILY. BUT THE BOY'S PARENTS SAY HE DIDN'T DID. IF HE REALLY WANTED TO DO IT, HE COULD HAVE GOT HOLD OF US, AND HE COULD HAVE SAID, 'HOW CAN I HELP?' BUT HE DIDN'T. FROM MY OPINION, IT'S PROBABLY MORE POLITICAL POSTURING AND GRANDSTANDING OTHER THAN SINCERITY. MAU HARAWIRA HAD ASKED FOR A SENTENCE OF HOME DETENTION. HIS LAWYER SAID THAT HE'D COME TO THE REALISATION HE'D WASTED 30 YEARS OF HIS LIFE. HE'S ABOUT TO BECOME A FATHER AND WAS TRYING TO TURN HIS LIFE AROUND. JUDGE HARVEY, THOUGH, SAID THE PUNISHMENT NEEDED TO ACT AS A DETERRENT, AND HE SENTENCED HIM TO THREE YEARS JAIL. HIS VICTIM'S WHANAU SAY THEY NEVER WANTED HIM TO GO TO JAIL. JUST ANOTHER MAORI GOING INTO PRISON, AND DOES THAT MAKE ME HAPPY? NO, IT DOESN'T. BUT JAIL IS A REALITY FOR MAU HARAWIRA, WHO WILL NOW HAVE TO WORK ON TURNING HIS LIFE AROUND FROM BEHIND BARS. HELEN CASTLES, ONE NEWS. NEW INFORMATION HAS COME TO LIGHT ABOUT THE 20-YEAR-OLD MURDER OF PROSTITUTE JANE FURLONG THE INQUIRY TEAM WERE TODAY BACK AT THE PROPERTY WHERE JANE USED TO LIVE IN THE AUCKLAND SUBURB OF ONEHUNGA. THEY'RE SCOURING A SPECIFIC PART OF THE FLAT AFTER A TIP-OFF FROM THE PUBLIC. JANE FURLONG'S REMAINS WERE FOUND BURIED AT PORT WAIKATO LAST YEAR. HER BOYFRIEND AT THE TIME OF HER DISAPPEARANCE IS STILL REFUSING TO SPEAK TO POLICE. HOMES UNDER $500,000 COULD YET BE EXEMPTED FROM TOUGH NEW RESERVE BANK LENDING RESTRICTIONS EXPECTED IN THE SPRING. ONE NEWS UNDERSTANDS THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS PUSHING HARD FOR THE EXEMPTION TO LESSON THE BLOW FROM RESTRICTIONS ON FIRST HOME BUYERS. POLITICAL EDITOR CORIN DANN HAS THE STORY. DESPITE WORKING TWO JOBS AND LOOKING FOR NEARLY A YEAR, JESS EDWARDS REEVES CAN'T FIND A FIRST HOME SHE CAN AFFORD. I'M LOOKING FOR A LITTLE TWO-BEDROOM HOUSE FOR MYSELF AND MY DAUGHTER, AND IT'S VERY HARD DUE TO THE BANK'S ONLY BEING ABLE TO GIVE YOU SUCH A SMALL LOAN. NOW, IF THE THE RESERVE BANK HAS ITS WAY, IT COULD GET EVEN HARDER. IT WANTS TO COOL OFF THE HOT HOUSING MARKET BY FORCING BANKS TO RATION LOW-DEPOSIT LOANS FAVOURED BY FIRST-HOME BUYERS LIKE JESS. THE RESERVE BANK POLICY WILL HAVE AN IMPACT ON LOW-INCOME, FIRST-HOME BUYERS. IT WILL LOCK THEM OUT OF THE MARKET. THE GOVERNMENT AGREED TO THE NEW TOOL AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO HIKING INTEREST RATES. BUT ONE NEWS UNDERSTANDS THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS NOW PUSHING THE BANK TO WATER DOWN THE RESTRICTIONS AND EXEMPT HOMES UNDER $500,000, ARGUING THAT LOW-DEPOSIT LOANS UNDER THIS PRICE ARE LESS RISKY. BUT THE RESERVE BANK MAY NOT PLAY BALL. WHEN ASKED FOR COMMENT, IT REFERED ME TO THIS LINE IN A SPEECH BY ITS DEPUTY GOVERNOR LAST WEEK. OUR PREFERENCE IS TO KEEP THE POLICY SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE BY NOT HAVING MAJOR EXEMPTIONS AND BY MINIMISING THE POSSIBILITIES FOR AVOIDANCE. BUT IT'S NOT JUST GOVERNMENT THAT WANTS FIRST-HOME BUYER EXEMPTIONS. YOU CAN'T EXEMPT EVERYONE, BUT, UH, OTHER, UH, SIMILAR REGIMES IN OTHER COUNTRIES DO FOCUS, FOR EXAMPLE, ON HIGH-VALUE HOUSES. THE GOVERNMENT CAN PUSH ALL IT LIKES FOR THE BANK TO CONSIDER FIRST-HOME BUYERS,... I THINK THEY SHOULD GIVE A... A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF MONEY OUT TO THOSE PEOPLE THAT CAN'T AFFORD A HOUSE. ...BUT IN THE END, THE DECISION IS THE RESERVE BANK'S TO MAKE. CORIN DANN, ONE NEWS. TENSION REMAINS HIGH IN EGYPT AFTER MILLIONS OF PROTESTERS HIT THE STREETS EXACTLY A YEAR SINCE THE COUNTRY'S FIRST DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED PRESIDENT CAME TO POWER. FIVE PEOPLE HAVE DIED AS CLASHES ERUPTED DURING DEMONSTRATIONS AGAINST PRESIDENT MOHAMED MORSI. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS PACKED CAIRO'S TAHRIR SQUARE. THESE LIVE SHOTS SHOWING MANY STILL CAMPED OUT THERE. AND WITH LARGE NUMBER OF MORSI'S SUPPORTERS ON THE STREETS, VIOLENCE COULD BREAK OUT AT ANY TIME. THE BBC'S JEREMY BOWEN REPORTS FROM CAIRO. A WOODEN SANDAL WAS ONCE USED TO BEAT AN EGYPTIAN RULER TO DEATH. IT'S AN OLD STORY THAT EVERYONE HERE KNOWS, INCLUDING PRESIDENT MORSI. PEOPLE CHANT THE HIGH HOPES THAT FOLLOWED THE REVOLUTION IN 2011 WERE ALWAYS UNREALISTIC, GIVEN EGYPT'S ECONOMIC PROBLEMS AND ITS POLITICAL DIVISIONS. BUT THOSE WHO WANT THE PRESIDENT OUT SAY HE MADE A BAD SITUATION WORSE. WE HAVE GOTTEN RID OF A DICTATORSHIP THAT LASTED FOR 60 YEARS; NOW WE HAVE TO GET RID OF A NEW FASCIST THAT HAS LASTED FOR ONE YEAR. THE EGYPTIAN PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING TO ACCEPT THIS ANY MORE. EGYPT IS GOING DOWN THE DRAIN. A MAJOR CAUSE OF DISCONTENT IS EGYPT'S ECONOMIC COLLAPSE AS WELL AS ACCUSATIONS THAT HE'S RULING FOR HIS SUPPORTERS IN THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD AND NOT FOR ALL EGYPTIANS. THE RELIGIOUS DEMONSTRATED ALONGSIDE THE SECULAR. (SPEAKS ARABIC) TRANSLATOR: THERE IS NOTHING IN RELIGION ABOUT KILLING PEOPLE OR DESTROYING YOUR COUNTRY. BEHIND THEIR OWN SECURITY BARRIER, SUPPORTERS OF THE PRESIDENT ARE STAGING THEIR OWN SIT-IN. ALL CHANT THEY ECHO THEIR LEADER'S VIEW THAT HE HAS THE LEGITIMACY OF AN ELECTION VICTORY AND THAT IT'S ANTIDEMOCRATIC FOR STREET PROTESTS TO TRY TO FORCE HIM OUT. NOW, WHO GET MORSI IN HIS PLACE? THE VOICES OF THE PEOPLE. AND HE MUST RULE FOR THE VOICES OF THE PEOPLE. AFTER THREE YEARS, HE WILL BE KICKED OFF IF HE DIDN'T GO FOR THE VOICES OF THE PEOPLE. MANY OF THE PRESIDENT'S SUPPORTERS CARRIED CLUBS. THEY SAID THE FEARED ATTACK AND WERE READY TO DEFEND THEMSELVES. THEY BELIEVE A MAJORITY OF EGYPTIANS SHARE THEIR BELIEF THAT ISLAM AND AN ISLAMIST STATE IS THE ANSWER. THE ARMY IS WATCHING WHAT'S HAPPENING. THEY'VE WARNED THEY'LL INTERVENE IF EGYPT BECOMES UNGOVERNABLE. THE ANTI-MORSI COALITION RANGES FROM SUPPORTERS OF THE OLD REGIME TO PEOPLE WHO RISKED THEIR LIVES TO BRING IT DOWN. THEY SHARE THE DESIRE TO OVERTHROW THE NEW PRESIDENT AND NOT MUCH ELSE. THE PRESIDENT HAS RESPONDED THROUGH A SPOKESMAN, SAYING HE KNOWS HE'S MADE MISTAKES AND IS WORKING TO FIX THEM. WILL YOUR DRINKING TIME IN CHRISTCHURCH BARS BE CUT SHORT? THAT STORY'S NEXT ON ONE NEWS. PLUS ` STEPPING BACK IN TIME. THE OBAMAS FOLLOW THE LONG WALK OF A FREEDOM FIGHTER. A CRASH COURSE ON OUR COUNTRYSIDE. HOW TOP GEAR HAS SHOWCASED NZ'S SCENERY. AND IT'S NICE TO SEE YOU, BRUCIE. A CLASSIC ENTERTAINER GOES A BIT ROCK AND ROLL. TINKLING MUSIC Have you heard the buzz about fibre and wonder what it means for you? Well, this is fibre-optic cable, and it's going to bring us ultrafast broadband, or, as the techies like to call it, UFB. It means good things for your home broadband, like faster picture uploads and movie and music download speeds, and a smoother experience overall, especially for people who share the same connection. These days it's not uncommon for the whole household to be online at the same time, because the fancier our devices get, the more that they can do. How great is it watching TV On Demand or video-chatting with friends? It'll all be more enjoyable with ultrafast broadband, and we'll be future-proof for technology we haven't even dreamed of yet. Fibre is being rolled out over the next seven years to deliver ultrafast broadband, and some areas already have it. Learn more about the exciting possibilities fibre will bring to NZ at techinasec.co.nz TIME'S BEEN CALLED IN THE PAST HOUR FOR PEOPLE TO HAVE THEIR SAY ON TOUGH NEW DRINKING LAWS IN CENTRAL CHRISTCHURCH. THERE HAVE BEEN ALMOST 2000 SUBMISSIONS, MOSTLY AGAINST THE CONTROVERSIAL PROPOSED CHANGES. BAR OWNERS SAY THE CHANGES COULD CRIPPLE THEM. DONNA-MARIE LEVER HAS MORE. ARMED WITH A BILLBOARD AND BOXES OF SIGNATURES, THESE BAR-HOPPERS ARE OUT TO SAVE THE CITY NIGHTLIFE. WE'VE BEEN GOING PARTYING FOR YEARS AND, UM, WE'VE HAD REALLY GOOD TIMES, AND A LOT OF THOSE GOOD TIMES HAPPENED AFTER 1 O'CLOCK. BUT UNDER PROPOSED COUNCIL CHANGES ORDERED BY THE GOVERNMENT, BARS AND CLUBS IN THE CITY COULD END UP WITH A ONE-WAY DOOR POLICY AT 1AM AND CLOSED BY 3. IT WILL MAKE THINGS VERY DIFFICULT AND KILL, WHAT WAS IN CHRISTCHURCH, A VERY VIBRANT NIGHTLIFE. BAR OWNERS AGREE AND SAY MOST OF THEIR MONEY COMES IN BETWEEN 2AM AND 3AM. THEY'VE INVESTED SIGNIFICANTLY IN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, AND IF THEY'RE GOING TO LOSE A THIRD OF THEIR TRADE, THEY WILL QUICKLY GO OUT OF BUSINESS. THE PROPOSED CHANGES WOULD ALSO AFFECT THE SALE OF ALCOHOL AT ALL OFF-LICENCES IN CHRISTCHURCH, INCLUDING AT SUPERMARKETS. IT MEANS YOU COULD ONLY SELL BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 9AM AND 9PM. POLICE SAY THAT WOULD STOP PEOPLE PRE-LOADING. THEY SUPPORT BARS CLOSING EARLIER AND SAY IT WOULD BECOME THE SINGLE BIGGEST CRIME PREVENTION TOOL FOR THIS GENERATION. EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT STAFF BACK POLICE, SAYING THE WEE HOURS BECOME RUSH HOUR HERE FOR THE INTOXICATED AND UNCONSCIOUS. AND THEN THEY WAKE UP FIVE, SIX, SEVEN HOURS LATER, HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THEY ARE. DISORIENTATED, CONFUSED. STAFF CERTAINLY EXPERIENCE ABUSIVE BE-BEHAVIOUR AIMED AT THE STAFF. BAR OWNERS SAY A COMPROMISE MUST BE REACHED TO AVOID THE CITY NIGHTLIFE FROM FLATLINING. WE WOULDN'T SEE TOURISTS. WE WOULDN'T GET STUDENTS COMING BACK TO OUR UNIVERSITIES AND OUR POLYTECHS. THEY'LL GO TO CITIES THAT CAN SEE THE LIGHT. SUBMISSIONS WILL BE HEARD AT THE END OF THE MONTH. DONNA-MARIE LEVER, ONE NEWS. JOHN KEY'S SET TO GO HEAD TO HEAD WITH CONTROVERSIAL INTERNET MILLIONAIRE KIM DOTCOM IN PARLIAMENT. THE MEGAUPLOAD FOUNDER'S ISSUED A CHALLENGE VIA TWITTER, SAYING HE'LL FRONT UP ON WEDNESDAY TO TELL THE GOVERNMENT WHY SPY LEGISLATION WON'T WORK. THE PRIME MINISTER IS CHAIRMAN OF THE HIGH-POWERED COMMITTEE. MORE THAN HAPPY TO DO SO. ONE NEWS HAS BEEN TOLD JOHN BANKS WILL ALSO ATTEND. DOTCOM'S BEEN A CONSTANT HEADACHE FOR THE ACT LEADER AND THE GOVERNMENT. AN EXPLANATION'S BEING DEMANDED FROM THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT OVER NEW SPYING CLAIMS. WHISTLE-BLOWER EDWARD SNOWDEN IS BELIEVED TO BE THE SOURCE OF THE LATEST ALLEGATIONS ` THAT AMERICAN INTELLIGENCE TAPPED INTO EUROPEAN UNION OFFICES. IF IT IS TRUE, IT IS A SHOCK, AND I'M ANGRY. NOT ONLY ANGRY, I'M DEEPLY SHOCKED BECAUSE I THINK THE UNITED STATES SHOULD TREAT THE EUROPEAN UNION NOT LIKE AN ENEMY. THE US GOVERNMENT IS YET TO MAKE ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE CLAIMS. AMERICA'S COMMANDER IN CHIEF IS A LONG WAY FROM THE SPYING FUSS. BARACK OBAMA AND HIS FAMILY HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF SOUTH AFRICA'S FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT. THEY'VE SPENT TIME ON ROBBEN ISLAND, WHERE FREEDOM FIGHTER NELSON MANDELA WAS JAILED. OUR CORRESPONDENT GARTH BRAY HAS MORE. CAPTURED IN THOUGHT, PRESIDENT OBAMA STOOD SILENTLY IN THE TINY CELL WHERE NELSON MANDELA WAS CONFINED FOR 18 YEARS. A FORMER INMATE GUIDED THE OBAMA FAMILY THROUGH ROBBEN ISLAND'S CRUEL HISTORY, TO THE QUARRY WHERE MR MANDELA AND OTHER ANTI-APARTHEID PRISONERS WERE ENDLESSLY FORCED TO SMASH STONES ` LABOUR THAT PERMANENTLY DAMAGED HIS HEALTH. PRESIDENT OBAMA MAY NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO VISIT NELSON MANDELA, BUT HE WAS WELCOMED BY ANOTHER AGING HERO OF THE FIGHT TO END APARTHEID ` BISHOP DESMOND TUTU. YOUR SUCCESS IS OUR SUCCESS. YOUR FAILURE, WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, IS OUR FAILURE. THE PRESIDENT WROTE IN THE ROBBEN ISLAND GUESTBOOK THAT HE'D BEEN REMINDED 'NO SHACKLES OR CELLS 'CAN MATCH THE STRENGTH OF THE HUMAN SPIRIT'. CHEERING, APPLAUSE LATER, BARACK OBAMA TOLD STUDENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF CAPE TOWN THAT IF ANY NATION COULD PROVE HUMAN BEINGS CAN AFFECT CHANGE, IT WAS SOUTH AFRICA. LIKE BILLIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD, I AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, HAVE DRAWN STRENGTH FROM THE EXAMPLE OF THIS EXTRAORDINARY LEADER AND THE NATION THAT HE CHANGED. A VISIT BY AMERICA'S FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT WAS BROADLY WELCOMED HERE IN SOUTH AFRICA, THOUGH OVERSHADOWED BY NELSON MANDELA'S ILL HEALTH. THE FORMER PRESIDENT WAS MOST RECENTLY VISITED IN HOSPITAL BY HIS DAUGHTER AND EX-WIFE, AND HE REMAINS IN A CRITICAL CONDITION. AS THIS NATION FAREWELLS ONE PRESIDENT, MINDS WILL AGAIN TURN TO THE HEALTH OF HIS HERO. GARTH BRAY, ONE NEWS, JOHANESBURG. OUR LANDSCAPE'S BEEN SHOWCASED IN A TOP-RATING TV PROGRAMME. YOU MAY REMEMBER THE STIR CREATED WHEN TOP GEAR PRESENTERS STEERED A COURSE TO CAPE REINGA BY CAR AND BOAT. NOW THE RACE HAS SCREENED IN BRITAIN, AS PAUL HOBBS REVEALS. WELCOME TO NZ.

DOES IT STILL HAVE THE FLAVOUR? AND HERE'S A CROWD FAVOURITE. SEE HOW MICK AND CO GOT THEM JUMPING AT GLASTONBURY. # JUMPING JACK FLASH. IT'S A GAS, GAS, GAS. # 1 A MILLIONAIRE BUSINESSMAN'S APPLICATION TO BECOME AN AMBASSADOR FOR AN ANTI-VIOLENCE CHARITY WILL BE DECIDED AT A SPECIAL MEETING TOMORROW. SIR OWEN GLENN'S CHANCES ARE LOOKING INCREASINGLY SLIM AFTER REVELATIONS HE ONCE FACED ABUSE CHARGES IN THE UNITED STATES. LISA OWEN WITH THIS UPDATE. WOMEN: FAMILY VIOLENCE... MEN: ...NOT OK. THE MESSAGE FROM THE WHITE RIBBON CAMPAIGN IS CLEAR. NOT SO STRAIGHTFORWARD IS OWEN GLENN'S APPLICATION TO BECOME AN AMBASSADOR FOR THE ANTI-VIOLENCE GROUP. THIS WHOLE REGRETABLE DEBACLE MIGHT HAVE BEEN ABVOIDED HAD WE KNOWN MORE. WHITE RIBBON AMBASSADORS PLEDGE NEVER TO COMMIT, CONDONE OR REMAIN SILENT ABOUT VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN. THE APPLICATION FORM'S STRAIGHTFORWARD. THEY MUST SIGN A STATEMENT THAT NOTHING IN THEIR PERSONAL LIFE WOULD DAMAGE THE CREDIBILITY OF THE CAMAPAIGN, AND THERE'S A SECTION TO DISCLOSE OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION ABOUT THEIR PAST. THERE WAS NO INFORMATION DISCLOSED IN RELATION TO THE HAWAII INCIDENT. WE ONLY GOT TO KNOW ABOUT IT THROUGH DICLOSURES THROUGH THE MEDIA. IN 2002, THE WEALTHY BUSINESSMAN WAS ARRESTED IN HONOLULU AND CHARGED WITH PHYSICALLY ABUSING A YOUNG WOMAN. HE PLEADED NO CONTEST, MEANING HE DIDNT PLEAD EITHER WAY, AND THE CHARGE WAS DISMISSED IN 2004. SIR OWEN SAYS HE DID NOTHING WRONG, BUT DIDNT FIGHT THE MATTER DUE TO HIGH LEGAL COSTS. EVEN SO, WHITE RIBBON SAYS IT ABSOLUTELY SHOULD HAVE BEEN DECLARED, AND THE COMITTEE WILL URGENTLY REVIEW SIR OWEN'S APPLICATION. I'M NOT HAPPY AT THE MOMENT. THE COMMITTEE MAY FEELING UNHAPPIER THAN I AM PRESENTLY FEELING. SO IT'S NOT LOOKING THAT STRONG, IS IT? SAYS SIR OWEN SHOULD JUST BOW OUT NOW. HE HASN'T BEEN OPEN AND HONEST ABOUT HIS BACKGROUND, UH, NO MATTER HOW INNOCENT HE IS, UM, AND HE SHOULD STEP ASIDE IN THE INTERESTS OF THE CAMPAIGN. BUT QUESTIONS REMAIN OVER HOW THE LATEST REVEALATIONS WILL AFFECT THE CREDIBILITY OF THE GLENN INQUIRY. LISA OWEN, ONE NEWS. THE ICE CREAM MAKER THAT HELPED LAUNCH RACHEL HUNTER'S MODELLING CAREER IS NOW DOING ITS OWN MAKEOVER. TIP TOP SAYS IT'S GOING NATURAL ` DITCHING ALL ARTIFICIAL COLOURS AND FLAVOURINGS. SO DOES IT STILL TASTE OK? JOANNA HUNKIN WITH THE SCOOP. THEY LOOK AND TASTE ALMOST THE SAME. IT'S GOOD. TASTES PRETTY SIMILAR, YEAH. THIS ONE'S CREAMIER. I'D BETTER TRY AGAIN. BUT THIS NEW BATCH OF ICE CREAM IS ALL NATURAL ` NO ARTIFICIAL COLOURS, NO ARTIFICIAL FLAVOURS. WHILE AT THE MOMENT THERE'S NO REAL STRONG EVIDENCE THAT THE COLOURS WE USE IN NZ ARE UNSAFE, THEY'RE COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY, SO WHY ADD THEM? HERE'S A TIP... THAT'S TOPS. IN FACT, THE 77-YEAR-OLD COMPANY DIDN'T USE ADDITIVES UNTIL THE 1960S WHEN THEY BECAME THE NORM. IT WAS JUST THE IN THING TO DO AT THE TIME. THEY'RE COMPLETELY SAFE, BUT I THINK PEOPLE LOOK BACK NOW AND GO, 'OH, MAYBE NATURAL'S A LITTLE BETTER THAN ARTIFICIAL THESE DAYS.' PEOPLE ARE BECOMING SO AWARE OF WHAT'S IN THEIR FOOD AND WANTING TO EAT BETTER AND PROVIDE HEALTHIER FOOD FOR THEIR FAMILIES. SHE BELIEVES IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE OTHER MAJOR FOOD MANUFACTURERS FOLLOW SUIT. BUT IT'S A SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT. TIP TOP WON'T SAY HOW MUCH THE CHANGE HAS COST BUT IT'S HAD TEAMS OF FULL-TIME STAFF WORKING ON THE PROJECT FOR NEARLY TWO YEARS NOW. IT ALSO COSTS MORE TO PRODUCE THE NATURAL RECIPES, BUT TIP TOP'S ADAMANT PRICES HERE AT THE CHECKOUT WON'T CHANGE. IT'S BEEN QUITE A LONG AND COMPLICATED JOURNEY FOR US, BECAUSE WE'VE HAD TO WORK WITH A LOT SUPPLIERS BOTH DOMESTICALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY TO GET THEM TO GIVE US INGREDIENTS THAT HAVE NATURAL COLOURS AND FLAVOURS. VANILLA WILL BE ONE OF THE FIRST NATURAL FLAVOURS TO GO ON SALE, BUT IT WILL TAKE UNTIL DECEMBER FOR THE FULL RANGE TO ROLL OUT. JOANNA HUNKIN, ONE NEWS. THE TOP PACIFIC ADVISER FOR AUCKLAND'S MAYOR SAYS HE'LL STAND AGAINST LEN BROWN AT THE OCTOBER ELECTIONS. UESIFILI UNASA SAYS HE'S DISAPPOINTED THE COUNCIL LEADERSHIP'S PUT BIG PROJECTS BEFORE PEOPLE. HE INCLUDES THE SKY CITY DEAL ` ALLOWING FOR EXTRA POKIE MACHINES IN EXCHANGE FOR A CONVENTION CENTRE. WHILST WE MAY SAY PACIFIC PEOPLE ARE PART OF THE STRUGGLE, THERE ARE MANY, MANY FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES IN AUCKLAND WHO STRUGGLE TO MAKE THIS A LIVEABLE CITY. WITH MR UNASA JOINING THE RACE, THERE ARE NOW FIVE CANDIDATES FOR MAYOR. NOW, MIND YOUR LANGUAGE. THE EMPHASIS THIS WEEK IS ON PRONOUNCING MAORI NAMES PROPERLY. PEOPLE ARE BEING ENCOURAGED TO PRACTISE SAYING LOCATIONS LIKE TAUPO AND TAKAPUNA. WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A NICE WAY FOR PEOPLE TO ENGAGE WITH THE LANGUAGE BUT IN A WAY THAT'S MEANINGFUL AND RELATIVE TO THEM. IT'S THE START OF MAORI LANGUAGE WEEK, OR TE WIKI O TE REO MAORI, WHICH HAS RUN SINCE 1975. A FESTIVAL OFTEN REMEMBERED FOR MUD AS MUCH AS THE MUSIC HAS NOW REACHED A NEW HIGH. AND IT'S BECAUSE OF OLD STAGERS THE ROLLING STONES MAKING THEIR DEBUT AT GLASTONBURY IN ENGLAND. THIS FROM THE BBC'S LIZO MZIMBA. FOR MANY, THIS NEVER LIKELY TO BE REPEATED APPEARANCE BY THE STONES WAS NOTHING LESS THAN SPECTACULAR. # ALL RIGHT. # JUMPIN' JACK FLASH IS A GAS, GAS, GAS. # AFTER ALL THESE YEARS... FOR THE FESTIVAL'S FOUNDER, HIS HIGHLIGHT WAS BEING THANKED PERSONALLY ON STAGE BY SIR MICK JAGGER. THANK YOU, MICHAEL. HE'S WANTED TO BOOK THE BAND FOR YEARS. THE WHOLE THING HAS TO BE THE BEST MOMENT, WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT. IT'S THE WHOLE RAZZMATAZZ OF THE WHOLE OCCASION, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? ANOTHER PERFORMER OF ADVANCING YEARS WHO WENT DOWN WELL WITH YOUNG FANS WAS SIR BRUCE FORSYTH. WELL, I HAVEN'T BEEN THE HOT TICKET FOR A LONG TIME. HE SEEMS SURPRISED THAT HE PROVED SO POPULAR SOMEWHERE LIKE GLASTONBURY. THIS IS REAL ROCK AND ROLL, AND WHAT THE HELL I'M DOING HERE, I HAVE NO IDEA AT ALL. I'M GOING TO TRY TO ROCK, AND I'M GOING TO TRY TO ROLL. # ISLANDS IN THE STREAM, # THAT IS WHAT WE ARE. # AT THE OTHER END OF THE MUSICAL SPECTRUM, ONE OF THE MOST TALKED-ABOUT ACTS ON THIS FINAL DAY WAS COUNTRY STAR KENNY ROGERS. HE'S PLAYED ALL OVER THE WORLD, BUT SAYS GLASTONBURY IS SPECIAL. I THINK THAT THERE'S NO QUESTION. YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THE PEOPLE WHO'VE BEEN HERE, LOOK AT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE HERE EVEN THIS YEAR, AND IT'S A VERY SPECIAL PLACE TO BE. AND I'M THRILLED TO BE HERE. I HOPE I CAN PULL MY WEIGHT WITH THE AUDIENCE. I HOPE THEY WILL ENJOY IT. THE OLD BOYS CERTAINLY HELPING ATTRACT A CROWD. UP TO 150,000 ATTENDED THE THREE-DAY FESTIVAL. UPDATING TONIGHT'S LEADING STORIES. A BLAZE THAT'S KILLED 19 FIREFIGHTERS IS STILL BURNING OUT OF CONTROL. IT'S AMERICA'S DEADLIEST WILDFIRE IN 30 YEARS. PROTECTIVE SHELTERS FAILED TO KEEP THE FLAMES AWAY FROM SPECIALLY TRAINED CREWS IN THE STATE OF ARIZONA. AND THE PRICE OF PETROL'S HEADING FOR RECORD LEVELS. GOVERNMENT FUEL TAXES HAVE COME INTO EFFECT, PUSHING THE COST OF A LITRE OF 91 OCTANE CLOSE TO $2.23. THERE'S A WARNING IT'LL GO HIGHER BECAUSE OF RISING OIL PRICES AND A LOWER KIWI DOLLAR. ANDREW'S HERE WITH SPORT, AND SIR GORDON TICKS ANOTHER SEVENS BOX? THE WOMEN'S PLAYERS ARE ALSO WORLD CUP CHAMPIONS. RIO 2016 NOW MOVES A STEP CLOSER. ALSO TONIGHT ` LOOK WHO'S BACK.

PLUS WE'LL SHOW YOU HOW THE SINGLET FITS AS STEVE ADAMS ARRIVES IN OKLAHOMA. DOUBLE DELIGHT AS IT RAINED GOLD IN MOSCOW. EARLIER, ELECTRICAL STORMS HAD THREATENED TO WASH OUT FINALS DAY. THUNDER RUMBLES THAT IS A CLAP OF THUNDER YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE. NO SOONER HAD CAPTAIN DJ FORBES SCORED IN THE SEMI-FINAL AGAINST FIJI THAN HIS USUAL LOOK TO THE HEAVENS TOOK ON A NEW MEANING, AS PLAY WAS SUSPENDED FOR FEAR OF LIGHTNING STRIKES. WHEN THEY FINALLY RESUMED, IT WAS SHADES OF THE 1975 WATERLOGGED TEST AT EDEN PARK. BUT THE SODDEN SURFACE DIDN'T SLOW SHERWIN STOWERS IN THE FINAL AGAINST ENGLAND, PUTTING TIM MIKKELSON AWAY FOR THE OPENING TRY. BEAUTIFUL PLAY, AND IT'S MIKKELSON STRAIGHT AWAY. SO MUCH FOR THE CONDITIONS SUITING ENGLAND, AS THE OLD HANDS TURNED THE TURNOVER INTO MORE POINTS. DJ FORBES. CAMA! A KICK FEST ENSUED AND NZ MASTERED THAT TOO. WE DON'T USUALLY LIKE KICKING AS AN ALL BLACK SEVENS TEAM. I DON'T REALLY LIKE IT, AND WE VERY RARELY DO, BUT TODAY IT WAS ALL ABOUT WINNING A WORLD CUP. WHEN THEY CHOSE TO SHIFT IT WIDE, THE ENGLISH SIMPLY HAD NO ANSWER ` ROUTED 33-0. HE'S SLIPPED OUT OF THE TACKLE, AND HE GETS THE SCORE. DESERVING OF A CELEBRATORY MUDSLIDE. REDEMPTION FOR THE 2009 SURVIVORS. EARLIER RAZZLE-DAZZLE FROM LEADING FEMALE TRY SCORER PORTIA WOODMAN GOT THE NZ WOMEN OFF TO A FLIER IN THEIR FINAL AGAINST CANADA. AND SHE COMBINED WITH ANOTHER FORMER NORTHERN MYSTICS NETBALLER, KAYLA MCALISTER, AS THE 2009 BEATEN FINALISTS WON 29-12. IT'S AMAZING. I CAN'T EXPLAIN IT. A YEAR AGO I NEVER THOUGHT I'D EVER BE HERE. JOINT CELEBRATIONS, WITH THE WOMEN GIVEN THE HONOUR OF LEADING OFF WITH THEIR HAKA. ALTHOUGH THE MEN WEREN'T ABOUT TO BE UPSTAGED ON THE WORLD STAGE. STEPHEN STUART, ONE NEWS. NZ RUGBY NOW HOLDS ALL FOUR SENIOR WORLD CUPS, THE MEN'S AND WOMEN'S 15'S AS WELL AS THE SEVENS TROPHIES. IT MEANS THE NZRU ACHIEVES A FIRST IN GLOBAL RUGBY. WE HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE A LITTLE COMPLACENT ABOUT WHAT THAT MEANS. THE RESPONSE I GOT FROM PEOPLE AROUND US LAST NIGHT WHEN IT DAWNED ON ME THAT WE HOLD EVERY WORLD CUP POSSIBLE WAS HUMBLING. TEW ADMITS IT WAS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTING FOR RUGBY TO PLAY IN A NEAR-EMPTY MOSCOW STADIUM, BUT THE PLAYERS ARE JUST HAPPY TO WIN TWO WORLD CUPS. TO CAP THE VICTORIES, TIM MIKKELSON AND KAYLA MCALISTER HAVE BEEN NAMED WORLD MEN'S AND WOMEN'S SEVENS PLAYERS OF THE YEAR. ALL BLACKS CAPTAIN RICHIE MCCAW HAS BEEN BACK TRAINING TODAY WITH THE CRUSADERS. MCCAW'S TIME OUT OF THE GAME IS COMING TO AN END AS HE EYES UP SOME CLUB RUGBY MATCHES IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS. HE JUST JOINED. HE WAS GONNA DO HIS OWN FITNESS, BUT IT'S ALWAYS MORE FUN WHEN YOU'RE RUNNING ROUND WITH MATES. IT'S REALLY UP TO HIM IN HIS COMING BACK TO PLAY. WHETHER IT BE A CLUB GAME OR THE HIGH PRESSURES OF A SUPER MATCH IS REALLY SOMETHING TO BE DISCUSSED OVER THE COMING DAYS. MATSON SAYS MCCAW ISN'T AVAILABLE TO PLAY FOR THE CRUSADERS AGAINST THE CHIEFS THIS FRIDAY NIGHT IN CHRISTCHURCH BUT ALL THEIR OTHER ALL BLACKS WILL BE. ALL BLACKS AND HIGHLANDERS SECOND FIVE MA'A NONU HAS BEEN SUSPENDED FOR THE REST OF THE SUPER SEASON. NONU'S BEEN BANNED FOR THREE WEEKS AFTER PLEADING GUILTY TO A DANGEROUS TACKLE CHARGE DURING THE LOSS TO THE CRUSADERS ON SATURDAY NIGHT. LOOK, I CAN'T COMMENT ON SOMEONE ELSE'S MENTAL STATE. IN PROBABLY ONE INCIDENT, HE CLEARLY HAD A BRAIN FART AND HE HAS TO PAY THE CONSEQUENCES. THE HIGHLANDERS HAVE JUST TWO GAMES LEFT, SO NONU'S OUT OF THOSE AND MIGHT HAVE PLAYED HIS LAST GAME FOR THE SOUTHERNERS, AS HE'S NOW OFF CONTRACT. HIGHLANDERS FLANKER JARRED HOEATA STILL FACES A HEARING AFTER PICKING UP HIS THIRD YELLOW CARD OF THE SEASON. JUST OVER A MONTH AGO, THE FOLLOWING SEEMED ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE ` THE WARRIORS ARE NOW SITTING JUST OUTSIDE THE NRL'S TOP EIGHT. THE REBIRTH CONTINUES AFTER THAT DRAMATIC WIN OVER THE BRONCOS AT MT SMART STADIUM. A BIGGER CHALLENGE NOW AWAITS ` TAKING ON THE TABLE-TOPPING SOUTHS IN PERTH. JOE PORTER HAS MORE. EFFORT ETCHED ON TO KONRAD HURREL'S FACE AS THE WARRIORS WORKED ANOTHER MIRACLE. PRINCE, INTERCEPT. INTERCEPT FOR HURRELL. NOW HE'S OFF KONRAD. HURRELL OVER THE 40 AND STILL GOING. THAIDAY'S NOT GONNA GET HIM. THE HOSTS BEATING THE BRONCOS 18-16 FOR THEIR FIFTH STRAIGHT WIN. THE SECRET TO THEIR REVIVAL IS SIMPLE. OF THE WARRIORS' SEVEN WINS THIS SEASON, FIVE OF THEM CAME WHEN THEY COMPLETED MORE THAN 70% OF THEIR SETS. WHEN YOU'VE GOT BIG, UH, POWERFUL ATHLETES LIKE THE WARRIORS, IF YOU GOT THEIR FAIR SHARE OF THE BALL AND YOU'RE TACKLING THEM. IT TAKES ALL THE ENERGY AND POWER OUT OF THE DEFENSIVE LINE, AND WHEN THEY RUN, THEY'VE GOT NO STING IN THE BALL. WITH NINE GAMES REMAINING, THE WARRIORS LIE 10TH BUT HAVE 16 POINTS, LEVEL WITH THE EIGHTH-PLACED KNIGHTS AND JUST TWO BEHIND THE FIFTH-PLACED TITANS. 28 POINTS HAVE GOT EVERYONE INTO THE TOP EIGHT OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS. POINTS DIFFERENTIAL MAYBE MIGHT WORK AGAINST US, BUT, UH, YOU KNOW WITH THE BYE IN HAND, WE PROBABLY NEED TO WIN ABOUT FIVE, MAYBE SIX GAMES. ON SUNDAY, THEY FACE THE COMPETITION-LEADING RABBITOHS, WHO ARE ON A FOUR-GAME WINNING STREAK OF THEIR OWN. AT LEAST THE MATCH WILL BE PLAYED AWAY FROM SOUTHS' FERVENT SUPPORT BASE IN PERTH. DEFINITELY BETTER TO PLAY SOUTHS OVER IN PERTH FOR THE BOYS. THEY'LL HAVE A LOT OF SUPPORT FROM EXPAT KIWIS, PLUS THEY WON'T HAVE THEIR SUPPORT OF THE RABBIT BURROW IN THE ANZ STADIUM. IT'S THE FIRST TIME MATT ELLIOTT HAS WON FIVE IN A ROW AS AN NRL COACH. TO MAKE IT SIX, THE WARRIORS MUST BEAT A TEAM THAT SITS FIVE POINTS CLEAR AT THE TOP OF THE TABLE. JOE PORTER, ONE NEWS. EMERGENCY MEETINGS HAVE BEEN CALLED BY FORMULA 1 MOTOR RACING OFFICIALS AFTER A DRAMATIC BRITISH GRAND PRIX. SEVERAL DRIVERS SUFFERED TYRE BLOWOUTS, AND NOW SOME ARE THREATENING TO BOYCOTT NEXT WEEKEND'S RACE IN GERMANY. THE BBC'S KATIE GORNALL REPORTS. BRITAIN'S LEWIS HAMILTON MADE THE SMOOTHEST OF STARTS. BUT THEN, WITHOUT WARNING, THIS. OH, AND A TYRE GONE! AND IT'S LEWIS HAMILTON! HAMILTON! AFTER JUST EIGHT LAPS, HIS GRAND PRIX WAS IN TATTERS, AND SILVERSTONE WAS IN SHOCK. BUT THE DRAMA DIDN'T END THERE. THREE MORE DRIVERS WOULD HAVE THEIR RACES RUINED WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, AND WITH JEAN-ERIC VERGNE BARELY ABLE TO KEEP HIS TORO ROSSO ON THE TRACK, THE DANGER WAS ALL TOO CLEAR. LOOK AT THE SHRAPNEL BEING FIRED AT HIM. HAMILTON'S ISSUES HAD ALLOWED SEBASTIAN VETTEL TO TAKE THE LEAD, BUT THERE WAS TO BE ONE LAST TWIST. WITH 10 LAPS TO GO, HIS RACE GROUND TO A HALT. THIS TIME, THE TYRES WEREN'T TO BLAME. LOST DRIVE. I LOST DRIVE. LOST THE GEARBOX. AMID THE CHAOS, HAMILTON'S MERCEDES TEAMMATE, NICO ROSBERG, POWERED THROUGH TO TAKE THE CHEQUERED FLAG, WHILE HE RECOVERED TO FINISH FOURTH. NOT THE HOMECOMING HAMILTON HAD HOPED FOR. THAT'S JUST UNACCEPTABLE, AND IT COULD HAVE HAPPENED AT HIGH SPEED, AND SOMEONE COULD HAVE CRASHED. AND IT` I WAS THINKING, IN THE RACE, WHEN WE WERE BEHIND THE SAFETY CAR, IT'S ONLY UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT THAT SOMEONE'S GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. BUT, UM, YOU KNOW, IT'S` OBVIOUSLY, I'M MASSIVELY DISAPPOINTED, AN-AND IT IS DOWN TO THE TYRES. TYRES HAVE BEEN A CONTROVERSIAL ISSUE FOR FORMULA ONE THIS SEASON, AND AFTER TODAY'S EVENTS, THE TYRE MANUFACTURER, PERELLI, WILL HAVE EVEN MORE QUESTIONS TO ANSWER. BRAZIL HAS SIGNALLED ITS ON THE RISE AHEAD OF NEXT YEAR'S FIFA FOOTBALL WORLD CUP AFTER BEATING SPAIN IN THE CONFEDERATIONS CUP FINAL. THE HOSTS GETTING OFF TO A DREAM START AT THE VENUE FOR NEXT YEAR'S WORLD CUP FINAL. AND THEN HULK PLAYED IT IN, AND FRED GOT UP, AND NEYMAR GOT A BIT OF IT, AND THEY TOOK IT HOME! AND BRAZIL LEAD IN NEXT TO NO TIME! OSCAR... NEYMAR... WOW! PICTURE-BOOK GOAL FOR THE PIN-UP BOY. FRED ADDED ANOTHER JUST AFTER HALFTIME TO MAKE IT 3-0. IT WAS WORLD CHAMPION SPAIN'S FIRST LOSS IN MORE THAN THREE YEARS. BRAZIL BECAME THE FIRST TEAM TO WIN THREE CONSECUTIVE CONFEDERATIONS CUP TROPHIES. THE NETBALL CHAMPIONSHIP BATTLE IS OVER FOR NZ FRANCHISES, BUT THE JOSTLE FOR PLAYERS FOR NEXT YEAR IS ONLY JUST BEGINNING. A LACKLUSTRE MAGIC FAILED TO WIN THEIR MINOR SEMI-FINAL AGAINST THE QUEENSLAND FIREBIRDS IN HAMILTON LAST NIGHT, GOING DOWN 53-50. WITH ALL LOCAL TEAMS NOW FINISHED FOR THE YEAR, THE WHEELING AND DEALING FOR NEXT SEASON BEGINS. I ACTUALLY CALL IT THE MEAT MARKET ONCE IT OPENS, AND IT FEELS LIKE THAT, TO BE HONEST, AND IT'S A VERY AGGRESSIVE TIME OF` TIME OF SEASON. AND, BASICALLY, IT'S ABOUT THE SUPPLY AND DEMAND. NOELINE TAURUA SAYS THERE'S A SHORTAGE OF QUALITY PLAYERS. THE MAGIC'S BIG THREE OF CASEY KOPUA, LAURA LANGMAN AND IRENE VAN DYK SURE TO ATTRACT PLENTY OF ATTENTION, BUT NOT GIVING MUCH AWAY. THERE'S BEEN A CORE OF US THAT HAVE BEEN TOGETHER FOR A WHILE, UM, AND WHO KNOWS WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TOMORROW OR THE NEXT DAY. REPORTS HAVE ALREADY LINKED LANGMAN WITH THE AILING NORTHERN MYSTICS FRANCHISE. KIWI NBA BASKETBALLER STEPHEN ADAMS HAS HAD HIS FIRST DAY AT WORK AS A MEMBER OF THE OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER. ADAMS WAS REVEALED TODAY ALONG WITH THE THUNDER'S TWO OTHER DRAFTEES. HE'LL PLAY IN THE NBA SUMMER LEAGUE, STARTING NEXT WEEK. CAN'T REALLY PUT IT INTO WORDS. FELT LIKE MY BIRTHDAY AND CHRISTMAS PUT TOGETHER. SO, YEAH, I WAS REALLY EXCITED ABOUT IT. I WAS SUPER HAPPY. ADAMS' FIRST GAME IN THE SUMMER LEAGUE IS LIKELY TO BE NEXT MONDAY AGAINST THE INDIANA PACERS. THE LEAGUE IS WHERE NBA HOPEFULS PLY THEIR TRADE TO MAKE PLAYING ROSTERS FOR NEXT SEASON. BEFORE I DASH, WIMBLEDON RETURNS TO OUR SCREENS TONIGHT. LIVE ACTION HERE ON ONE FROM MIDNIGHT, STREAMING LIVE ON ONENEWS.CO.NZ SERENA, ANDY MURRAY AND NOVAK DJOKOVIC ALL BACK ON COURT, LOOKING TO MAKE THE QUARTER FINALS. AFTER THE BREAK ` JIM'S GOT WEATHER WARNINGS HELLO. AS THE NORTH-WEST ARCH BUILDS OVER CHRISTCHURCH, A ROLLING MAUL OF WILD WEST WINDS AND RAIN BANDS BUILDS AWAY TO THE SOUTH.
