Gareth Morgan appears to have lost his sanity.

i think he must have read this recent american study

and in a country that pretty much only has native animals in the form of birds....

Key delivered the best line of the afternoon
in saying that David Cunliffe remained about as popular a figure in the Labour caucus
as a pussycat at Gareth Morgan's place.

Key advised his Opposition counterpart

to get Cunliffe a bell to put around his neck

At least Shearer would hear Cunliffe coming the next time the latter planned a coup.

I don't see much support for Gareth's suggestion.
Entertaining but somewhat flawed.

It's not so hot at soccer either!

It just goes to show that economists, who love to voice their opinions, are as average as the rest of us.

Low EQ, what else can I say...

He should stick to his finance job, dont come crossing the cats and the soccer fans...

Gareth wants to see the Phoenix play 'entertaining' football so his latest plan is:
Entertainment on the field:
- Footballers only use their feet which leaves their arms free ... so Gareth is giving every player five oranges to juggle as they run around the field (economists love suggesting efficiencies).
- The goalie will now ride a unicycle (and juggle his five oranges) as he waits for some action to come his way ("well, he's bloody standing around doing nothing for most of the match").

Entertainment off the field:
- Gareth is importing an elephant so he can ride it around the field to encourage his players. He will be wearing an Elvis costume with rhinestones and be accompanied by a bevy of scantily clad young women in high heels and feathers in their hair.
- Ricki Herbert's new 'advisory' role involves pushing a wheelbarrow after the elephant.

The new coach will be announced shortly and don't be surprised if he comes with a circus de soleil background.
