GOOD EVENING, EVERYONE. THE START OF THE WEEKEND HAD US REACHING FOR AN EXTRA LAYER AS A LARGE POCKET OF COLD AIR INVADED THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE. BUT CONDITIONS HAVE SETTLED DOWN AND WE RETURN TO SPRING-LIKE CONDITIONS, WITH A FINE START TO THE WORKING WEEK. HOWEVER, DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH ` A RAIN-BEARING FRONT IS SET TO SCREAM IN FROM THE SOUTH BY TUESDAY. RIGHT NOW, IT'S 6 O'CLOCK. DUE TO THE LIVE NATURE OF 1 NEWS, WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LACK OF CAPTIONS FOR SOME ITEMS. TWO STABBINGS IN ONE EVENING ` A MAN AND A WOMAN ARE KILLED IN SEPARATE INCIDENTS JUST 5KM APART IN WEST AUCKLAND. WE'RE ALONG FOR THE RIDE WITH FRONT-LINE AMBULANCE STAFF AS THEY PICK UP THE PIECES ON A MESSY SATURDAY NIGHT. SIGNING UP TO SAVE THE FUTURE ` NZ JOINS 200 OTHER COUNTRIES AS THEY COMMIT TO CUT GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS. AND IT'S OUR FASTEST-GROWING TOWN, SO JUST WHAT IS IT THAT MAKES PEOPLE WANT TO MOVE TO ROLLESTON? NOW, EVERYBODY WANTS TO COME. MARVELLOUS. GOOD EVENING. TWO STABBINGS WITHIN FIVE HOURS AND 5KM OF EACH OTHER IN WEST AUCKLAND LAST NIGHT. A 42-YEAR-OLD MAN DIED AFTER BEING STABBED OUTSIDE HIS HOME IN GLENDENE LATE LAST NIGHT. THAT WAS JUST HOURS AFTER A WOMAN WAS FATALLY STABBED IN THE NEIGHBOURING SUBURB OF TE ATATU. YVONNE TAHANA REPORTS. THE QUIET, CAREFUL AFTERMATH OF A WEEKEND STABBING IN GLENDENE, BUT AT 9PM LAST NIGHT IT WAS ANYTHING BUT QUIET WHEN A FIGHT BROKE OUT. I HONESTLY THOUGHT WHEN I FIRST SAW IT, 'EH-UP, WE'RE GOING TO SEE 'A LITTLE SCRAP HERE. THEY'RE ABOUT TO BANG,' AND THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW, THEY'RE BOTH SQUARING UP AND I JUST SAW THE GLINT OF THE GUY'S BLADE, AND I'M TALKING THE BLADE WAS ABOUT THAT BIG, EH. THIS RESIDENT SAYS HE SAW TWO MEN CIRCLING EACH OTHER IN THE LEAD-UP TO THE FIGHT. THEN BEFORE YOU KNOW IT, THERE'S ALL THESE PEOPLE ON THE STREET, THERE'S A POLICE GUY THERE, AND I GO OUT AND THE GUY'S BLEEDING OUT ON THE GROUND. WITNESSES SAY THE VICTIM WAS GIVEN CPR BEFORE BEING TAKEN TO AUCKLAND HOSPITAL, WHERE HE DIED. WE WOULD ALSO SAY THE THREE OR FOUR PEOPLE THAT WE BELIEVE WERE INVOLVED IN THIS DISPUTE WITH THE DECEASED ` WE WOULD LIKE YOU TO COME FORWARD AND TELL US WHAT TOOK PLACE. A NEIGHBOUR SAYING THE VICTIM WAS A GOOD MAN WHO'D STOP BY FOR A CUPPA. WHENEVER I NEED HELP, I JUST GO OVER THERE AT THE BACK AND CALL HIM, AND HE COMES OVER AND HELPS ME OUT, YOU KNOW. THE PAINSTAKING POLICE WORK TO BUILD A PICTURE AROUND THE 42-YEAR-OLD'S LAST MOMENTS IS ONGOING, BUT IT'S A PROCESS BEING REPEATED JUST 5KM UP THE ROAD AT ANOTHER FATAL STABBING SCENE. WHERE, JUST FIVE HOURS EARLIER, A 36-YEAR-OLD WOMAN DIED AFTER SHE WAS STABBED AT THIS TE ATATU HOME. SHE'D BEEN ENJOYING A SPECIAL GIRLS' DAY PAMPERING SESSION AT THE PROPERTY. I THINK WE'VE HAD TWO UNFORTUNATE INCIDENTS. I THINK THAT'S HOW IT'S BEST TO DESCRIBE IT, AND WE ARE NOW PRESENTLY INVESTIGATING THIS ONE AS WELL AS THE OTHER ONE. A 36-YEAR-OLD WOMAN WILL APPEAR IN WAITAKERE DISTRICT COURT TOMORROW CHARGED WITH MURDER. YVONNE TAHANA, 1 NEWS. THE ST JOHN AMBULANCE SERVICE SAYS THE LIVES OF ITS OFFICERS ARE BEING PUT AT RISK WHILE THEY TRY TO SAVE LIVES. AMBULANCE OFFICERS ARE REPORTING AROUND 70 CASES OF PHYSICAL ABUSE A MONTH, WITH HUNDREDS MORE CASES OF VERBAL ABUSE. PAUL HOBBS JOINED AMBULANCE STAFF ON DUTY LAST NIGHT. SIREN WAILS THEY'VE GOT THE CALL. WHEN PEOPLE NEED US THE MOST, YOU KNOW WE'RE THERE GOING TO HELP THEM. BLOOD ON THE GROUND JUST NEAR AUCKLAND'S COLOURFUL K ROAD, 10 PEOPLE INVOLVED IN A SCRAP, ONE IN THE AMBULANCE IN CRITICAL CONDITION. BUT INCREASINGLY IT'S AMBULANCE STAFF WHO ARE COPPING IT. IT'S A LOT MORE VIOLENT, AND WE'RE JUST SEEN TO BE A PERSON IN A UNIFORM AND A TARGET. LATEST FIGURES OUT SHOW ST JOHN STAFF ARE THE TARGETS, ON AVERAGE, OF 70 CASES OF PHYSICAL ABUSE A MONTH ` EVEN SEXUAL ABUSE ` THE HIGHEST FIGURES THEY'VE EVER RECORDED. YOU FEAR FOR YOUR LIFE AT TIMES. AT THIS CALLOUT, AMBULANCE STAFF WERE FIRST ON THE SCENE. THE SCENE WAS QUITE VOLATILE. THEY DID THE RIGHT THING BY MAKING SURE POLICE WERE HERE PRONTO. LATE LAST YEAR, ST JOHN INTRODUCED ELECTRONIC PATIENT RECORDING ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND NOTICED THE DISTURBING TREND ` A RISE IN BOTH VERBAL AND PHYSICAL ABUSE. JUST LISTEN TO THESE EXAMPLES FROM A COUPLE OF MEDICS WHO REPORT ATTACKS FROM BOTH PATIENTS AND BYSTANDERS. I'VE HAD WEAPONS PULLED ON ME. ON DRUGS, KICKED ME IN THE FEMUR AND BROKEN MY BACK. I'VE HAD A FAMILY MEMBER GO BALLISTIC, KNOCK MY PARTNER UNCONSCIOUS. WE HAD 15-ODD BIKIES ON THE FENCE SAYING, 'IF HE DIES, YOU DIE.' AND THE REASON FOR THE RAPID RISE. THE DRUGS IS DEFINITELY INVOLVED, ALONG WITH ALCOHOL. THE MAN WHO OVERSEES STAFF NATIONWIDE SAYS IT'S TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. WE CAN'T HAVE THIS AS A FACT OF LIFE, BECAUSE IT'S NOT GOOD FOR OUR STAFF, AND THAT IMPACTS ON THE PUBLIC AT THE END OF THE DAY. IN MANY PARTS OF THE COUNTRY, ST JOHN AMBULANCES ARE STILL MANNED BY JUST ONE MEDIC. YOU CAN IMAGINE HOW FRIGHTENING THAT IS FOR ONE PERSON GOING IN WHEN THEY HAVEN'T GOT THE SUPPORT OR PROTECTION OF ANOTHER STAFF MEMBER. THESE MEN WERE LEAVING AUCKLAND'S DIWALI FESTIVAL WHEN THEY WERE ALLEGEDLY SET UPON BY A GROUP USING METAL BARS AND STOOLS FROM A PIZZA SHOP. WE'RE THERE TO HELP PEOPLE. THE SIMPLE MESSAGE FOR THOSE WHO WOULD TRY TO STOP THEM DOING THAT ` HANDS OFF OUR AMBOS. PAUL HOBBS, ONE NEWS. FLYING HAS BECOME A LOT MORE DIFFICULT FOR THOSE STILL HOLDING ON TO THEIR SAMSUNG NOTE 7 MOBILE PHONES. AIR NZ AND JETSTAR HAVE BANNED THE FAULTY PHONES FROM ALL DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS. THAT MEANS THEY CAN'T BE BROUGHT ON TO THE PLANE IN EITHER CARRY-ON OR CHECKED-IN BAGGAGE. THE BAN FOLLOWS A DIRECTIVE FROM THE US DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORT CALLING ON AIRLINES TO MAKE THE DEFECTIVE NOTE 7S A PROHIBITED ITEM. THE BANS CAME INTO EFFECT THIS MORNING. ALL OTHER SAMSUNG DEVICES CAN STILL BE TAKEN ON BOARD. A GROUP OF MEDICAL MARIJUANA CAMPAIGNERS IS TODAY CLAIMING A VICTORY. ASSOCIATE HEALTH MINISTER PETER DUNNE HAS SIGNED OFF ON A NEW CANNABIS-BASED PRODUCT FOR A PATIENT WHO HAS MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS. THE GROUP HOPES THAT WILL OPEN THE DOOR FOR OTHERS. RYAN BOSWELL REPORTS. GOOD BOY! DOCTOR HUHANA HICKEY LIVES WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS AND HAS BEEN USING SATIVEX TO HELP COPE WITH THE PAIN. IT'S THE ONLY READILY AVAILABLE MARIJUANA-BASED PHARMACEUTICAL-GRADE PRODUCT IN NZ. BUT AT A COST OF $1200 A MONTH, SATIVEX IS SENDING DOCTOR HICKEY BROKE. THE OVERDRAFT IS GETTING UP TO $5,000. THE KIWISAVER WAS $6,000. THAT'S ALL GONE. NOW SHE'S BEEN GIVEN SIGN-OFF BY ASSOCIATE HEALTH MINISTER PETER DUNNE TO USE TILRAY, A NEW MEDICAL MARIJUANA PRODUCT THAT'S ABOUT HALF THE PRICE. IT APPEARS TO BE A VERY GOOD ALTERNATIVE AND IT'S NOT A SPRAY, SO I DON'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE MUCOSAL DAMAGE THAT HAPPENS WITH SPRAY FORM. THIS NOW MEANS PETER DUNNE HAS GIVEN PERMISSION TO JUST THREE NZERS TO USE A MEDICAL MARIJUANA PRODUCT THAT'S NOT PHARMACEUTICAL GRADE. HIS OFFICE SAYS THE MINISTER ONLY GOES ON THE ADVICE PUT FORWARD BY OFFICIALS AT THE MINISTRY. GREAT NEWS. IT'S BEEN A LONG WHILE COMING. SHANE LE BRUN HAS BEEN HELPING HUHANA HICKEY AND OTHERS AND IS WORKING WITHIN THE CURRENT SYSTEM. WE CAN FUNDRAISE FOR LEGAL MEDICINES, WE CAN ADVOCATE FOR ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS WHICH ARE HOPEFULLY CHEAPER. HE HOPES THIS LATEST DECISION WILL ENCOURAGE DOCTORS TO ADVOCATE FOR MARIJUANA-BASED DRUGS MORE OFTEN. ONCE WE'VE GOT THIS FIRST ONE DONE WITH TILRAY, I'M EXPECTING IT'S GOING TO BE MUCH EASIER TO GET FURTHER APPLICATIONS FOR TILRAY. THIS WEEK A 17,000-STRONG PETITION WAS PRESENTED TO PARLIAMENT CALLING FOR CANNABIS TO BE TREATED AS A HEALTH PRODUCT. HUHANA HICKEY AGREES WITH REFORM, BUT SHE ALSO WANTS REGULATION. I NEED TO KNOW THAT PRODUCT IS SAFE FOR ME AND WILL ADDRESS MY NEEDS` MY MEDICAL NEEDS. HUHANA HICKEY PLEADING FOR CHANGE SO PEOPLE AREN'T FORCED TO TURN TO THE RAW PRODUCT THAT'S UNTESTED. RYAN BOSWELL, 1 NEWS DONALD TRUMP IS CHALLENGING HILLARY CLINTON TO A DRUG TEST BEFORE THE NEXT US PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE, AFTER ACCUSING HER OF BEING 'PUMPED UP' DURING THEIR LAST DEBATE. TRUMP'S ALSO QUESTIONING THE LEGITIMACY OF THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. HE'S ACCUSING HILLARY CLINTON OF COLLUDING WITH THE MEDIA TO PUSH LIES AND FALSE ACCUSATIONS ABOUT HIM TO TARNISH HIS IMAGE. THE ELECTION IS BEING RIGGED BY CORRUPT MEDIA PUSHING FALSE ALLEGATIONS AND OUTRIGHT LIES IN AN EFFORT TO ELECT HILLARY CLINTON PRESIDENT. TRUMP HAS SO FAR FAILED TO PRODUCE ANY EVIDENCE OF ELECTION FRAUD BUT IS CALLING ON HIS SUPPORTERS TO GO AND MONITOR POLLING PLACES. IMMIGRATION IS AGAIN IN THE SIGHTS OF WINSTON PETERS, WITH THE NZ FIRST LEADER CALLING ON THE GOVERNMENT TO STOP TWEAKING THE IMMIGRATION NUMBERS AND SLASH THEM. HE SPOKE TO JESSICA MUTCH ON Q+A. WINSTON PETERS IS NO STRANGER TO THE IMMIGRATION DEBATE ` IN FACT, HIS PARTY WAS FOUNDED ON IT ` SO HE WAS QUICK TO WADE INTO THE LATEST DEBATE. THEY'VE BEEN IN ABSOLUTE DENIAL. THEY'VE MISLED THE COUNTRY GROSSLY. HE'S LABELLING THE GOVERNMENT'S DECISION TO CUT IMMIGRATION BY 5,000 AS MEEK, AND SAYS IMMIGRATION WILL BE A HUGE BURDEN ON THE KIWI TAXPAYER. AND THE DEMAND IS, AS YOU KNOW` IN HOUSING IS MASSIVE. LOOK AT THE GRIDLOCK IN AUCKLAND. TWO AND A HALF, TWO AND THREE-QUARTER HOURS MORNING AND NIGHT. MR PETERS ADMITS WE NEED IMMIGRATION TO FILL GAPS IN OUR ECONOMY, BUT ONLY WANTS 15,000 PEOPLE A YEAR. THAT'S ABOUT A FIFTH OF THE CURRENT NUMBER. THAT'S A LONG LONG WAY FROM WHAT WE'RE AT NOW. IS THAT REALISTIC? NO, I DON'T THINK IT IS REALISTIC. IT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN PLUCKED FROM THE AIR. WE DO HAVE AN AGING POPULATION. DON'T WE NEED THOSE IMMIGRANTS TO COME IN TO FILL IN THE WORKFORCE TO BE ABLE TO SUPPORT THIS AGEING POPULATION? I'M SO GLAD YOU RAISED THAT. I'M SURE YOU ARE. I'M SO GLAD YOU RAISED THAT, BECAUSE YOU'D THINK THAT, WOULDN'T YOU? YOU WOULD THINK A TARGETED IMMIGRATION PROGRAMME WOULD BE BRINGING THE AVERAGE AGE DOWN. UH-UH. THE TWO HIGH CATEGORIES ARE THE VERY YOUNG ` PRESCHOOL, I MEAN PRE-WORKING IN THE WORKFORCE ` AND GUESS WHAT, THOSE THAT ARE 55, 60 AND OLDER. THIS ISN'T JUST A NZ ISSUE. THIS IS WHAT'S BEHIND BREXIT, THIS IS WHAT'S BEHIND THE RISE AND RISE OF DONALD TRUMP. IT'S A BIG PICTURE ISN'T IT, FRAN? YEAH, AND FINALLY THE MARKET HAS ACTUALLY MOVED TO WINSTON. IT'S TAKEN A VERY LONG TIME, AND OBVIOUSLY HE'S GOING TO CAPITALISE ON THAT. BUT I ACTUALLY THINK IT'S A GOOD PROBLEM TO HAVE. WE'RE AT A SITUATION PEOPLE WANT TO COME HERE. HOW MANY ARE ALLOWED IN IS WHAT'S BEING DEBATED. JESSICA MUTCH, 1 NEWS. ONE SECTOR LOOKING FOR SKILLED IMMIGRANTS IS CONSTRUCTION, AND THE FALLOUT FROM THE BREXIT REFERENDUM MAY PROVIDE A SOLUTION. KIWI BUILDING COMPANIES ARE RECRUITING IN BRITAIN, AND AS EUROPE CORRESPONDENT EMMA KEELING REPORTS, THERE'S PLENTY OF INTEREST. IT'S THE HOT TICKET IN TOWN. WE GOT SWAMPED WHEN THE DOORS OPENED THIS MORNING, AND IT HASN'T SLOWED DOWN. HUNDREDS ARE FLOCKING TO THIS RECRUITMENT EXPO NEAR LONDON ` MANY FOR THE SAME REASON. AFTER BREXIT, I JUST SAID, 'LET'S GO TO NZ.' IT COULD BE JUST WHAT NZ'S CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY NEEDS, AS IT ATTEMPTS TO KEEP UP WITH THE BUILDING BOOM. WE'VE GOT CLIENTS BACK IN NZ WHO COULD TAKE 40 CARPENTERS NEXT WEEK IF WE COULD FIND THEM. MARK MORRISON'S RECRUITING FOR SKILLS IN DEMAND. THEY NEED WORKERS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. WE WOULD EXPECT TO TAKE 150 CVS AND REGISTRATIONS AWAY FROM A WEEKEND LIKE THIS. USUALLY THE MOST POPULAR TIME OF YEAR FOR THESE EVENTS IS IN FEBRUARY. BUT ORGANISERS TELL ME THAT REGISTRATIONS FOR THIS EVENT HAVE ACTUALLY DOUBLED. THERE'S BEEN A STEADY INCREASE OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS. ALSO, THE ONLINE SEARCH ACTIVITY SEEMS TO HAVE TRIPLED OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, AND I THINK IT'S GENERALLY PEOPLE'S DISSATISFACTION WITH THEIR CIRCUMSTANCES, THE DESIRE FOR A BETTER LIFE. WHY DO YOU WANT TO MOVE TO NZ? UH, JUST GOT AN INTEREST IN TRAVELLING, SEEING THE WORLD AND DIFFERENT COUNTRIES, AND HEARD THERE'S A BIG GAP IN MARKET, SO I THOUGHT I'D GIVE IT A GO. FLETCHER BUILDING IS BECOMING A REGULAR VISITOR AS IT LOOKS TO RECRUIT AT EVERY LEVEL. HAD OUR WEBSITE UP AND RUNNING FOR A QUITE A LONG TIME, AND THIS IS OUR SECOND TRIP THIS YEAR, AND WE'VE MET SOME GREAT CANDIDATES, AND WE'VE GOT SOME INTERVIEWS NEXT WEEK WE'RE DOING. ANDREW AND CAROLINE ARE THE NEWEST EMPLOYEES. YOU'RE GOING TO BE A BUSY BOY? I'M GONNA BE A VERY BUSY BOY. I'M ALREADY BEING EARMARKED FOR DIFFERENT PROJECTS, AND I HAVEN'T ARRIVED YET. IT COULD BE A BREXIT BOOM TIME FOR KIWI RECRUITERS. EMMA KEELING, 1 NEWS, LONDON. COMING UP ON 1 NEWS ` IT'S BEING HAILED AS A LANDMARK AGREEMENT IN THE BATTLE TO COMBAT CLIMATE CHANGE. NEARLY 200 COUNTRIES MAKE A DEAL TO LIMIT THE USE OF GASES FOUND IN FRIDGES, AEROSOLS AND AIR CONDITIONERS. BUT DOES IT GO FAR ENOUGH? HER LAST TELEVISION INTERVIEW. TRADE UNION LEADER HELEN KELLY ON THE CONTINUING FIGHT FOR WORKERS' RIGHTS AND WHY SHE HAS NO TIME FOR DONALD TRUMP. PLUS HOW TO STOP ELEPHANTS FROM STEALING YOUR CROPS. THE INGENIOUS SOLUTION THAT'S PROVIDING A WIN-WIN FOR BOTH ELEPHANT AND FARMER. AN INTERNATIONAL DEAL TO CUT GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS HAS BEEN HAILED AS A 'MONUMENTAL' ACHIEVEMENT. NEARLY 200 COUNTRIES, INCLUDING NZ, HAVE AGREED TO PHASE OUT THE USE OF HYDROFLUOROCARBON GASES, WHICH ARE FOUND IN FRIDGES, AIR CONDITIONERS AND AEROSOLS. WITH MORE, HERE'S THE BBC'S RICHARD GALPIN. IT'S BEEN HAILED AS AN HISTORIC AGREEMENT. SCIENTISTS SAY THE HYDROFLUOROCARBONS USED IN AIR CONDITIONING AND REFRIGERATION ARE THE WORLD'S FASTEST-GROWING GREENHOUSE GASES. UNCHECKED, THEY WOULD CAUSE A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN GLOBAL WARMING. THE AMENDMENT AND DECISIONS ARE ADOPTED. APPLAUSE NOW, A LEGALLY BINDING AGREEMENT REACHED IN RWANDA TODAY WILL PHASE THEM OUT, REPLACING THEM WITH FAR LESS HARMFUL SUBSTITUTES. I THINK THAT IT'S A MONUMENTAL STEP FORWARD THAT ADDRESSES THE NEEDS OF INDIVIDUAL NATIONS, BUT IT WILL GIVE US THE OPPORTUNITY TO REDUCE THE WARMING OF THE PLANET BY AN ENTIRE HALF A DEGREE CENTIGRADE. DEMAND FOR FRIDGE'S AND AIR CONDITIONERS IS SOARING ACROSS THE DEVELOPING WORLD, LIKE HERE IN INDIA. THIS CUSTOMER'S COME TO BUY HIS FIRST FRIDGE ` A BIG MOMENT AS HE TAKES IT BACK TO HIS VILLAGE. NO ONE ELSE IN THIS COMMUNITY HAS ONE. SO GETTING INDIA TO SIGN UP TO THE DEAL WAS VITAL. BUT THERE HAVE BEEN CONCESSIONS. WITH TODAY'S AGREEMENT COMMITTING DEVELOPED COUNTRIES LIKE THE UK AND THE UNITED STATES TO START CUTTING USE OF THESE GASES IN THREE YEARS' TIME, WHILE CHINA AND OTHER DEVELOPING COUNTRIES HAVE TO MAKE THEIR FIRST CUTS IN 2029. AND INDIA HAS EVEN LONGER ` UNTIL 2032 ` BEFORE IT HAS TO BEGIN. WHILE SOME AT THE TALKS CRITICISED THESE CONCESSIONS, THERE WAS AGREEMENT THAT DEVELOPING COUNTRIES NEEDED HELP, BECAUSE IT'LL COST BILLIONS TO PHASE OUT AND REPLACE HYDROFLUOROCARBONS. ALTHOUGH THE DEAL'S A COMPROMISE, IT COULD BE A BIG STEP IN PREVENTING GLOBAL TEMPERATURES RISING BY THE FEARED 2 DEGREES CELSIUS ` THE POINT AT WHICH IT'S PREDICTED CLIMATE CHANGE WOULD HAVE THE MOST SERIOUS EFFECTS. THE BAN OF HYDROFLUOROCARBONS FOLLOWS ONE ON CHLOROFLUOROCARBONS AROUND 25 YEARS AGO. BRITISH MPS ARE NOW CALLING ON A TOP KIWI JUDGE, DAME LOWELL GODDARD, TO FRONT UP AND EXPLAIN HER RECENT RESIGNATION FROM AN INQUIRY INTO CHILD ABUSE. JUSTICE GODDARD STEPPED DOWN FROM THE ROLE IN AUGUST. LAST WEEK 'THE TIMES' NEWSPAPER ACCUSED HER OF MISCONDUCT, INCLUDING MAKING RACIST COMMENTS DURING HER TIME AS THE HEAD OF THE INQUIRY ` ALLEGATIONS SHE'S VEHEMENTLY DENIED. BRITAIN'S TOP CIVIL SERVANT HAS ALSO BEEN ASKED TO EXPLAIN TO MPS WHAT MINISTERS KNEW ABOUT DAME LOWELL GODDARD'S RESIGNATION. THOUSANDS CONTINUE TO LINE THE STREETS OF BANGKOK OUTSIDE THE GRAND PALACE TO PAY THEIR RESPECTS TO THE LATE KING BHUMIBOL. AND HERE IN NZ, THE THAI COMMUNITY GATHERED AT A WEST AUCKLAND TEMPLE TODAY TO CELEBRATE AND COMMEMORATE HIS LIFE. A SPECIAL BATHING CEREMONY WAS HELD AS PART OF THE BUDDHIST CULTURE. THIS MEAN A LOT TO THE THAI COMMUNITY IN NZ BECAUSE HE'S THE` WE CALL HIM THE FATHER OF THE NATION, FATHER OF THAILAND. HE MEANS SO MUCH TO US. ONE YEAR OF MOURNING HAS BEEN DECLARED IN THAILAND, AND FOR THE NEXT 30 DAYS, FLAGS WILL FLY AT HALF MAST. SHE WAS THE MOST RECOGNISABLE FACE OF THE UNION MOVEMENT HERE AND CARRIED ON FIGHTING FOR THE CAUSE EVEN IN HER FINAL DAYS. IN HELEN KELLY'S LAST TV INTERVIEW, RECORDED TWO WEEKS BEFORE HER DEATH ON FRIDAY, THE 52-YEAR-OLD SHARED HER THOUGHTS ON DONALD TRUMP, VALUES AND RESPECT. KIM SAVAGE HAS MORE. HELEN KELLY STILL FIGHTING FOR OTHERS AS SHE WAGED HER OWN PERSONAL BATTLE. WE'RE A VALUES-BASED MOVEMENT WHO WILL NEVER CHANGE THOSE VALUES ` BETTER WAGES, SAFER CONDITIONS, RESPECT AND DIGNITY AT WORK. IN HER LAST TELEVISION INTERVIEW, SHE SPOKE OF THE PEOPLE WHO'VE SUPPORTED HER WITH GRATITUDE. THIS WEEK WE'VE GOT ALL THE PIKE AND FORESTRY FAMILIES HERE. THEY'VE COME UP OF THEIR OWN DRIVE JUST TO CHECK ON ME. ISN'T THAT GORGEOUS? I MEAN, PEOPLE I'VE HAD BIG FIGHTS WITH IN THIS JOB ` THERE'S GENUINE CONCERN FOR MY HEALTH, YOU KNOW. I THINK IT'S BECAUSE THE WORK WE'RE DOING IS OF HIGH VALUE, AND THEY KNOW THAT. DESPITE HER VEHEMENT DEFENCE OF WORKERS' RIGHTS, HER RELATIONSHIP WITH EMPLOYERS, SHE SAID, WAS A GOOD ONE. WE HAVE A LOT OF DISAGREEMENTS AROUND THE STRUCTURE OF THE ECONOMY AND HOW WAGES ARE SET AND EVERYTHING, BUT WE DON'T DISRESPECT EACH OTHER. HELEN KELLY WAS THE MOST RECOGNISABLE FACE OF THE NZ UNION MOVEMENT, BUT SHE BELIEVED IT SHOULD BE LESS ABOUT INDIVIDUALS. THEY'RE TOO FOCUSED ON LEADERSHIP RATHER THAN VALUES, AND ACTUALLY IT'S THE VALUES PEOPLE REFLECT. 'OH YEAH, THE UNIONS, THEY PROTECT PEOPLE'S WORK.' YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHAT THE UNIONS DO, NOT JUST, 'OH, HELEN KELLY, SHE'S THE LEADER OF THE UNIONS.' SHE SUGGESTED IT'S SOMETHING THE LABOUR PARTY AND ITS LEADER, ANDREW LITTLE, MIGHT LIKE TO CONSIDER. AT THE MOMENT, SOME OF THEIR VALUES MESSAGES COME ACROSS AS CONFUSED, LIKE THEIR MESSAGE ON CANNABIS IS VERY CONFUSED. I DON'T THINK LEADERSHIP IS THE ISSUE. I THINK HE'S GOT THE VALUES, PROPOSITION STRONGLY, BUT THEY'VE GOT TO GET THEM OUT THERE AND THEY'VE GOTTA BE CONSISTENT. HER LAST DAYS SPENT REFLECTING. YOU THINK ABOUT YOUR LIFE AND WHO YOU WANT TO LEAVE A NOTE FOR AND THINGS LIKE THAT. YEAH, IT'S A GOOD TIME, IN A WAY. UNABLE TO IGNORE WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE WORLD. THAT'S WHY I HATE THIS DONALD TRUMP THING. HE'S SO UNKIND. I WANT PEOPLE JUST TO BE KIND. HELEN KELLY'S LIFE WILL BE CELEBRATED AT A PUBLIC FAREWELL IN WELLINGTON FRIDAY WEEK. KIM SAVAGE, 1 NEWS. RENEE'S HERE NOW WITH THE DAY'S WEATHER HIGHLIGHTS, AND A BIT WARMER TODAY THAN YESTERDAY. YES, IT WAS A LARGE POCKET OF COLD AIR IN THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE THAT DELIVERED A CHILLY START TO THE WEEKEND, BUT CONDITIONS HAVE SETTLED, AND WE HAVE RETURNED TO WARMER TEMPERATURES. FOR WEATHER, SEE TVNZ.CO.NZ AND WE ARE IN FINE FORM AS WE START THE WORKING WEEK. DETAILS ON HOW LONG THAT WILL LAST RIGHT AFTER SPORT. STILL TO COME ` WE VISIT NZ'S FASTEST-GROWING TOWN, WHICH, AFTER HUMBLE BEGINNINGS, IS CELEBRATING A BIG MILESTONE THIS WEEKEND. AND THE HONEY BEES STOPPING THE WORLD'S LARGEST ANIMAL IN ITS TRACKS. LOOKING AT OUR TOP STORIES TONIGHT ` THERE HAVE BEEN TWO FATAL STABBINGS IN WEST AUCKLAND THIS WEEKEND. A MAN DIED LAST NIGHT AFTER A STREET FIGHT IN THE SUBURB OF GLENDENE. POLICE ARE SEARCHING FOR HIS ATTACKER. IN ANOTHER INCIDENT, A WOMAN'S BEEN ARRESTED FOR THE STABBING DEATH OF A WOMAN IN TE ATATU. THE ST JOHN AMBULANCE SERVICE IS REPORTING RISING LEVELS OF ABUSE DIRECTED AT THEIR STAFF. AMBULANCE OFFICERS ARE REPORTING AROUND 70 CASES OF PHYSICAL ABUSE A MONTH, WITH HUNDREDS MORE CASES OF VERBAL ABUSE. IT MIGHT NOT BE BEACH WEATHER JUST YET, BUT SURF LIFESAVERS TODAY MARKED THE START OF THEIR SEASON AT MURIWAI ON AUCKLAND'S WEST COAST. ABOUT 50 RECRUITS WENT THROUGH THE FINAL STAGE OF THEIR TRAINING TO QUALIFY AS SURF LIFESAVERS. AND WITH MORE AND MORE PEOPLE FLOCKING TO THE BEACHES EACH SUMMER, THE MESSAGE IS SIMPLE ` ENJOY YOURSELF, BUT BE SAFE. WE'RE EXTENDING OUR SEASON, WE'RE PUTTING MORE RESOURCE INTO THE SEASON, BUT WHAT WE'RE SAYING IS WORK WITH US. THE BEST PLACE, THE MOST ENJOYABLE PLACE, THE SAFEST PLACE YOU CAN BE AT THE BEACH THIS SUMMER, IS BETWEEN THE FLAGS. LIFEGUARDS WILL START PATROLLING BEACHES FROM NEXT WEEKEND. IT'S THE FASTEST-GROWING TOWN IN THE COUNTRY, AND TODAY, ROLLESTON, JUST SOUTH OF CHRISTCHURCH, CELEBRATED ITS 150TH BIRTHDAY WITH A GRAND STREET PARADE. IT'S CERTAINLY COME A LONG WAY FROM ITS HUMBLE BEGINNINGS AS A RAILWAY TOWN. LISA DAVIES HAS THE STORY. WHISTLE BLOWS A NOD TO ROLLESTON'S RAILWAY TOWN PAST. WHISTLE BLOWS WE GOT TO DO THIS TO SHOW THEM HOW TO DO IT. WHISTLE BLOWS BUT NOT EVERYONE WAS IMPRESSED. IT SMELT YUCKY. RESIDENTS LINED THE STREETS, USING EVERY VANTAGE POINT, TO MARK THE 150-YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE TOWN THEY LOVE TO LIVE IN. ALTHOUGH THERE WERE SOME DISTRACTIONS. WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT THE PARADE? FLUFFY! (LAUGHS) SHE LIKES THIS ONE. OH, YOU LIKE THE MICROPHONE BETTER? TRACTORS! TRACTORS. THEY WERE THERE BECAUSE ROLLESTON IS VERY MUCH A RURAL TOWN TOO. WE'RE IN A PERIOD OF MASSIVE GROWTH HERE, AND I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT OT REFLECT BACK FROM TIME TO TIME AND SEE WHERE IT ALL STARTED. ROLLESTON'S BEEN GROWING AT A CRAZY RATE. IN 1971, THERE WERE JUST 2000 PEOPLE LIVING OUT HERE, BUT NOW ITS HIT 14,000 AND COUNTING. IT'S BEEN THE FASTEST-GROWING COMMUNITY AND TOWN IN NZ FOR QUITE SOME YEARS NOW. AVAILABILITY OF LAND AFTER THE EARTHQUAKES SAW EVEN MORE PEOPLE FLOCK HERE. BUT IT'S A TOWN THAT GOT OFF TO A SLOWISH START. WHEN I FIRST CAME, NOBODY WANTED TO COME HERE, BUT NOW EVERYBODY WANTS TO COME. MARVELLOUS. AND ITS EVEN GOT A PIPE BAND SUPPORTING IT! (LAUGHS) BAND PLAYS A PIPE BAND, AND A POPULATION THAT'S STILL ON THE RISE. LISA DAVIES, ONE NEWS. WHILE MANY AFRICAN COUNTRIES ARE STRUGGLING TO STOP POACHERS, KENYA'S HAD RELATIVE SUCCESS PROTECTING ITS ELEPHANT POPULATION. BUT THE INCREASING NUMBERS ARE CAUSING PROBLEMS FOR FARMERS, WITH ELEPHANTS EATING THEIR CROPS. BUT THEY MAY HAVE FOUND AN ANSWER ` BEES. THE ABC'S MARTIN CUDDIHY REPORTS. ACROSS THE TSAVO NATIONAL PARK, THERE ARE ABOUT 15,000 ELEPHANTS. FROM AROUND THE WORLD, TOURISTS FLOCK TO THIS SEMI-ARID ENVIRONMENT TO WATCH THEM, BUT LOCALS AREN'T ALWAYS SO IMPRESSED. THE CHALLENGE IS TO FIND WAYS TO MAKE THE COMMUNITY NOT FEEL THAT WILD ANIMALS ARE PESTS. A WILD ELEPHANT CAN EAT MORE THAN 100KG OF DRY MATTER IN A DAY. FARMERS HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO POISON OR KILL ELEPHANTS FOR DESTROYING THEIR CROPS. A STRANGE NEW FENCE IS KEEPING THE ELEPHANTS OUT. AFRICAN HONEYBEES ARE STOPPING THE WORLD'S LARGEST LAND MAMMAL. ELEPHANTS HAVE A NATURAL FEAR OF HONEYBEES. THEY CAN RECOGNISE THE SOUND OF THEM IN THEIR BEEHIVES, AND THEY'LL WALK WITHIN A FEW METRES OF THE HIVES, AND THEN THEY TURN AND THEY'LL WALK AWAY. THE PROGRAMME IS IN A TRIAL PHASE, BUT ALREADY, IT'S CHANGING LIVES FOR FARMERS. THE FENCES PROTECT CROPS AND PROVIDE A NEW SOURCE OF INCOME FOR THE FARMERS ` HONEY. BECAUSE KENYA'S ELEPHANT POPULATION HAS INCREASED, THE NUMBER OF HUMAN WILDLIFE INTERACTIONS HAVE ALSO INCREASED. NOW, THESE BEEHIVES ARE A SIMPLE AND SUSTAINABLE WAY OF ENSURING THAT THE TWO COMMUNITIES CAN CONTINUE TO LIVE SIDE-BY-SIDE. AND THERE'S BEEN AN 80% REDUCTION OF ELEPHANT INVASIONS ON FARMS USING THE BEE FENCES. ANDREW'S HERE WITH SPORT, AND AT LEAST THE ALL BLACKS WILL WIN NEXT WEEKEND? WHERE DO WE START? THE NETBALLERS CRASHED BACK TO EARTH, WHILE THE KIWIS STAGGER AGAINST AUSTRALIA. IT MIGHT BE THE WORST KICKING GAME I'VE EVER SEEN FROM A TEST TEAM. PLENTY TO WORK ON AHEAD OF THE FOUR NATIONS, AS THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY HELPS SINK THE KIWIS. BEAVER'S BACK, BUT WILL HIS LAST-MINUTE HEROICS BE ENOUGH TO MAKE THE PROVINCIAL PLAY-OFFS? AND WELCOME BACK. AN AUSSIE FOOTBALL STAR MAKES A MASSIVE HOMECOMING STATEMENT. IT'S BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD FOR THE SILVER FERNS, AFTER AUSTRALIA ALL BUT CLINCHED NETBALL'S CONSTELLATION CUP WITH A GAME TO SPARE. COMPLACENCY, MENTAL FATIGUE AND IMPROVED AUSSIE ACCURACY ALL FACTORED IN THE 62-50 DRUBBING IN THE THIRD TEST IN AUCKLAND. THE FERNS FACE A NEAR-IMPOSSIBLE TASK IN THE FINAL TEST. KIMBERLEE DOWNS REPORTS. THEY KNEW THERE'D BE IMPROVEMENT,... TREMENDOUS VISION FROM RAVALLION. ...THEY KNEW THE PHYSICALITY WOULD INCREASE,... WELL, JEEPERS, WHAT DO YOU CALL THAT? ...BUT DESPITE THE SILVER FERNS ANTICIPATING THE DANGERS OF A WOUNDED AUSTRALIAN SIDE, THEY SIMPLY COULDN'T CONJURE A RESPONSE. I THINK WE JUST GOT A LITTLE BIT COMPLACENT AND WE LOST OUR CONNECTIONS. YOU COULD JUST SEE AT TIMES WE GOT EITHER ON TOP OF EACH OTHER OR WE GOT REALLY ISOLATED, SO THERE'S CERTAINLY SOME WORK TO DO IN THAT AREA. IT WASN'T THE CASE INITIALLY; NZ HELD THEIR OWN IN A FIERCE, FAST-PACED OPENING QUARTER. BUT AFTER THAT, THE ERRORS CREPT IN, WHILE AUSTRALIA'S WILLINGNESS TO LET THE BALL GO PAID OFF; THEY OUTSCORED THE HOME SIDE BY FOUR IN EACH OF THE LAST THREE QUARTERS. WE SAW IT HAPPENING, AND WE KNEW IT WAS HAPPENING, BUT WE DIDN'T PUT ENOUGH PRESSURE ON IT. AUSTRALIAN SHOOTER CAITLIN BASSETT THRIVED; SHE SET A NEW PERSONAL RECORD OF 55 GOALS, SINGLE-HANDEDLY OUTSCORING THE FERNS. WE NEED TO MIX IT UP, AND WE NEED TO MAKE SURE WE'RE JUST CONSTANTLY MOVING AND NOT LETTING THEM GET SETTLED. I THINK WE DID THAT WELL AT TIMES BUT NOT ENOUGH. AT THE OTHER END, THE VISITORS' DEFENCE WAS SMOTHERING. EVEN THE INTRODUCTION OF MARIA TUTAIA COULDN'T STAUNCH THE BLEEDING; SHE MADE 11 OF HER 16 ATTEMPTS ON HER RETURN FROM INJURY. MARIA'S A REAL COMPETITOR, AND SHE'LL HAVE A GOOD LOOK AT IT, AND I KNOW SHE'LL COME BACK EVEN STRONGER FOR THAT. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT AFTER A TIGHT TURNAROUND FOR LAST NIGHT'S TEST, FATIGUE SHOULDN'T BE A FACTOR IN THE NEXT ONE, IN INVERCARGILL ON THURSDAY. THE BAD NEWS? WHILE THE SILVER FERNS COULD LEVEL THE SERIES, THEY'D NEED A RECORD WIN TO RECLAIM THE CONSTELLATION CUP. KIMBERLEE DOWNS, 1 NEWS. NEW KIWIS COACH DAVID KIDWELL HAS ASKED FOR 'IMPROVEMENT FROM HIS PLAYERS' FOLLOWING HIS SIDE'S DISAPPOINTING 26-6 LOSS TO AUSTRALIA IN PERTH. THEY'LL NEED A TON OF IMPROVEMENT IF THEY'RE TO HAVE ANY HOPE OF BEATING THE AUSSIES IN THE UPCOMING FOUR NATIONS IN THE UK. JOHN MCKENZIE REPORTS. THEIR FACES SAID IT ALL ` THIS WAS NOT A PERFORMANCE TO BE PROUD OF. WE LEARNT SOME HARSH LESSONS THERE TODAY, AND I'VE ALREADY ADDRESSED THOSE ISSUES WITH THE BOYS. THOSE ISSUES INCLUDE HANDLING ERRORS,... OH NO. ...POOR FIFTH TACKLE OPTIONS... OH, DEAR OH DEAR. MIGHT BE THE WORST KICKING GAME I'VE EVER SEEN FROM A TEST TEAM. ...AND A LACK OF DESIRE, DESPITE PLAYING FOR THEIR NEW LEADER, DAVID KIDWELL. YEAH, WE WORKED REALLY HARD IN THAT FIRST HALF AND MANAGED TO CLAW OUR WAY BACK IN THE GAME, BUT JUST LET OURSELVES DOWN IN THAT SECOND HALF. QUESTIONS ALSO HAVE TO BE ASKED ABOUT THE SIDE'S INTERCHANGE DECISIONS. DESPITE HAVING THE REIGNING DALLY M MEDAL WINNER, HE SAT ON THE SIDELINES FOR MOST OF THE SECOND HALF. CAN BRAD FITTLER GO DOWN AND GET JASON TAUMALOLO ON TO THE FIELD, PLEASE. HE GOING ON SOON? THEY'RE NOT REALLY SURE. KIDWELL ADMITTED LATER HE UNDERUTILISED TAUMALOLO, BUT NOT INTENTIONALLY. THE POSITIVES ARE IT'S JUST ONE TEST, AND THE ONES THAT REALLY COUNT START IN TWO WEEKS' TIME IN THE FOUR NATIONS. AND INGLIS WILL SCORE! JUST WHICH PLAYERS WILL BE HEADING THERE, THOUGH, IS A DIFFERENT QUESTION ENTIRELY. OH, BALL COMES OUT. SHAUN KENNY DOWALL HADN'T PLAYED FOOTBALL FOR SIX WEEKS AND MIGHT NOT WANT TO PLAY FOR SIX MORE AFTER DEVELOPING A CASE OF THE DROPSIES. HE LOSES THE BALL. THE KIWIS WILL FLY TO THE UK ON WEDNESDAY, WITH THEIR FIRST GAME OF THE FOUR NATIONS AGAINST ENGLAND IN JUST TWO WEEKS. AUSTRALIA HAS TO BE SEEN AS THE FAVOURITES HEADING INTO THE TOURNAMENT ` A MIXTURE OF EXPERIENCE AND YOUTH POSING A DIFFICULT PROPOSITION FOR ANY TEAM. MAL SPOKE ALL WEEK ABOUT BEING A PROFESSIONAL OUTFIT, YOU KNOW, PLAYING THE WAY WE WANT THE KANGAROOS TO PLAY, AND I THOUGHT WE DID THAT TONIGHT. A FIVE-TRIES-TO-ONE THRASHING LEAVES SEVERAL QUESTIONS THAT WILL NEED TO BE ANSWERED SOONER RATHER THAN LATER. JOHN MCKENZIE, 1 NEWS. HOPING TO STOP THE INTERNATIONAL SPORTING ROT THIS WEEKEND ARE THE BLACKCAPS, WHO START THEIR ONE-DAY SERIES IN INDIA LATER TONIGHT. THE SQUAD HAS REGROUPED IN DHARAMSALA AFTER THE THIRD TEST CAPITULATION. THE BLACKCAPS BEAT INDIA 3-1 IN THEIR ODI SERIES IN NZ ALMOST THREE YEARS AGO, GIVING THEM SOME CONFIDENCE IN THIS FORMAT. WE'VE JUST GOTTA BE POSITIVE. GO INTO EACH GAME BEING POSITIVE AND BACK OUR PROCESSES AND SKILLS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. AND WE'VE GOT SOME NEW PLAYERS IN THE GROUP, AS WELL, THAT CAN BRING A NEW ENERGY AND STUFF LIKE THAT. WHILE IT'S A VERY DIFFERENT INDIAN SIDE, TOO, THE MINDSET REMAINS THE SAME. I THINK IT WILL BE, TO WIN, AGGRESSIVE ` PLAY INTENSIVE CRICKET AND PLAY TO OUR STRENGTH RATHER THAN FOCUSING ON THEIR STRENGTHS OR THEIR WEAKNESSES. AS IF INDIA NEEDS ANY BOLSTERING, ONE-DAY SPECIALIST MS DHONI COMES IN AS CAPTAIN. THE SEMI-FINALISTS HAVE BEEN CONFIRMED FOR PROVINCIAL RUGBY'S MITRE 10 CUP, WITH THE PLAY-OFFS LINEUP ONLY DECIDED IN THE LAST HALF HOUR. IN THE TOP-TIER PREMIERSHIP, CANTERBURY WILL HOST COUNTIES-MANUKAU ` A REPEAT OF YESTERDAY'S GAME; TARANAKI TAKES ON TASMAN IN NEW PLYMOUTH. IN THE SECOND-TIER CHAMPIONSHIP, OTAGO FINISHES TOP, HOSTING BAY OF PLENTY; WELLINGTON PLAYS NORTH HARBOUR. THE LAST 24 HOURS HAS SEEN A FAIR AMOUNT OF CHOPPING AND CHANGING, WITH THE LAST FEW RESULTS HAVING A MAJOR INFLUENCE ON THE SEMI-FINALS. TALK ABOUT BEING IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME, AGAIN. DON'T YOU JUST LOVE THIS GUY? THE AGELESS STEPHEN DONALD SCORED WAIKATO'S ALL-IMPORTANT FOURTH TRY AGAINST WELLINGTON. NOW MEESA, AND JACOBSON PROPS IT BACK ON THE INSIDE, BALL STILL THERE, DONALD! STEPHEN DONALD IS GOING TO SCORE, AND WAIKATO GET THEIR FOURTH TRY. AND AT THAT STAGE THE BONUS-POINT WIN HAD THEM FOURTH AND IN THE SEMI-FINALS, UNTIL LATE TODAY. ALL BLACK DAMIEN MCKENZIE PLAYING FIRST FIVE WAS INFLUENTIAL. NICE AND QUICKLY, AWAY FOR MCKENZIE. OFF HE GOES! WE EXPECTED AT SOME POINT THIS WOULD HAPPEN. MCKENZIE TROUBLED AT WILL, SETTING UP ANOTHER OF THE MOOLOOS' TRIES. NOW WORKING THE BLINDSIDE, MCKENZIE POPS A BEAUTIFUL PASS. WHAT A CLASSIC! TO MANIHERA! THEN MCKENZIE HAD THE BALL ON A STRING ` WAIKATO WINNING 28-24. WELLINGTON SQUANDERED THEIR CHANCE TO FINISH TOP OF THE SECOND-TIER CHAMPIONSHIP. BUT WAIKATO'S SUCCESS LAST NIGHT COUNTED FOR NOTHING LATE TODAY, AS TASMAN THRASHED SOUTHLAND TO PUSH WAIKATO OUT OF THE PLAY-OFFS. NOW IT'S A FOOT RACE! MAKIRIM, BALL INSIDE, LOWE GETS THE THIRD! TASMAN HAD THE FOUR-TRY BONUS POINT SOON AFTER HALFTIME, GOING ON TO WIN 56-0, MAKING THE PREMIERSHIP PLAY-OFFS FOR THE THIRD YEAR IN A ROW. JUST ONE OF THE TOP-TIER SEMI-FINALISTS, CANTERBURY, HOLDS A SUPER RUGBY FRANCHISE. HOW THE COMPETITION HAS CHANGED. NORTH HARBOUR HAVE ONLY CONFIRMED THEIR SEMI-FINAL POSITION IN THE LAST HALF HOUR, THEIR FIRST PLAY-OFF OF ANY TYPE IN 10 YEARS. IT WAS THE MATT, MATT AND MATT SHOW AS THE HARBOUR BACKS TOOK IT TO BOTTOM-OF-THE-TABLE NORTHLAND IN THEIR CHAMPIONSHIP CLASH IN WHANGAREI. OH, GREAT BUILD-UP, GREAT HANDLING, GOOD PASSING. AS THEY COME RIGHT IT'S VAINGA AWAY TO MCCAHON AND DUFFY WITH THE FINISH. HARBOUR POWERED AWAY 44-28 ` THEIR FIRST WIN IN NORTHLAND FOR SIX YEARS. HAYDEN PADDON IS UP TO FOURTH IN THE RALLY OF SPAIN THANKS TO ONE OF THE LEADING CONTENDERS CRASHING OUT. PADDON WAS FIFTH STARTING DAY TWO, AND WHILE HE DIDN'T MAKE ANY GROUND ON THE LEADERS, THE SPECTACULAR EXIT OF THIRD-PLACED ANDREAS MIKKELSEN HELPED HIS CAUSE. THE NORWEGIAN'S VW SPINNING AFTER HITTING A BARRIER. OH YEAH, WELL, THE TITLE HOPE IS FOR SURE NOW OVER, BUT THE SECOND PLACE IS STILL POSSIBLE ` MORE OR LESS EQUAL WITH NEVILLE, SO WE'LL HAVE TO PUSH HARD IN LAST TWO ROUNDS. THAT'S BASICALLY GIFTED HIS TEAMMATE SEBASTIEN OGIER THE WORLD TITLE YET AGAIN, WHILE THE FRENCHMAN COULD TAKE THIS RALLY AS WELL AS HE'S CLOSING IN ON RACE LEADER DANNI SORDO. MANCHESTER CITY'S STRONG START TO THE ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE SEASON APPEARS TO HAVE STRUCK THE WOBBLES. THE LEAGUE LEADERS HAVE BEEN HELD TO A 1-ALL DRAW AGAINST EVERTON. MEANWHILE, ARSENAL'S CHARGE IS GATHERING STRENGTH, THE GUNNERS NOW LEVEL AT THE TOP ON POINTS. ABBY WILSON WRAPS UP THE ACTION. MANCHESTER CITY DOMINATED THIS MATCH 19 SHOTS AT GOAL AND 72% POSSESSION, BUT IT WASN'T THEIR AFTERNOON. AND IT'S SAVED TO HIS LEFT! NOT ONE BUT TWO PENALTIES SAVED BY EVERTON GOALKEEPER, MAARTEN STEKELENBURG, JUST THE EIGHTH TIME IN EPL HISTORY THAT'S HAPPENED. WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE FOR MAN CITY FROM THE SPOT? DEEP IN THE SECOND HALF AND DOWN 1-0, CITY LOOKED LIKE THEY MAY LOSE A SECOND STRAIGHT MATCH, STEKELENBURG HAVING WHAT HIS MANAGER DESCRIBED AS THE GAME OF HIS LIFE, BUT YOU CAN'T SAVE EVERYTHING. AND NOW THEY HAVE THE GOAL! ARSENAL VERSUS SWANSEA CITY, A GOAL FEAST BY COMPARISON. THEO WALCOTT WITH THE GUNNERS' FIRST TWO. THEO WALCOTT IS MAN ON THE SPOT AGAIN! SWANSEA UNDER NEW AMERICAN MANAGER BOB BRADLEY CLOSED THE GAP TO ONE, BUT THEN MESUT OZIL THREW IT WIDE OPEN AGAIN.. A GOAL FOR THE BIRTHDAY BOY! 3-1 SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE GAME, BUT ANOTHER FROM SWANSEA AND A RED CARD FOR ARSENAL MADE FOR AN UNCOMFORTABLE FINAL 20 MINUTES. MEANWHILE, CHELSEA AND THE LEAGUE'S TOP GOAL SCORER, DIEGO COSTA, LOOKED COMPLETELY AT EASE AGAINST LEICESTER CITY. IN FOR CHELSEA! THE W FOR TEAMMATE WILLIAN WHO'S RETURNED TO BRAZIL FOLLOWING HIS MOTHER'S DEATH, BUT IT ALSO COULD HAVE STOOD FOR THE WOEFUL REIGNING CHAMPIONS. FINAL SCORE 3-0. ABBY WILSON, 1 NEWS. FORMER EVERTON STAR, AUSTRALIAN VETERAN TIM CAHILL HAS SCORED A CRACKING GOAL ON HIS DEBUT IN THE A LEAGUE FOR MELBOURNE CITY, CAHILL LETTING RIP EARLY IN THE DERBY AGAINST THE MELBOURNE VICTORY. WHOA! OH MY WORD! WHAT A HIT! IT'S TIMMY CAHILL! ALL WHITES STRIKER MARCO ROJAS WAS IN ACTION AFTER JUST ARRIVING BACK FROM THE U.S. HE HAS! AND HOW! A STRONG RETURN TO THE A LEAGUE FOR ROJAS. BUT MELBOURNE CITY ENDED UP WITH THE WIN, 4-1. HERE'S SOMETHING TO PROVE EVEN THE BEST HAVE BAD DAYS. WORLD TENNIS NUMBER ONE NOVAK DJOKOVIC HAS BEEN BUNDLED OUT OF THE SHANGHAI MASTERS AFTER AN ERROR-RIDDLED SEMI-FINAL AGAINST NUMBER 19 ROBERTO BAUTISTA AGUT. THE SERB UNHAPPY TO SAY THE LEAST. BUILDING IT UP. NOW, WE SAW A MASSIVE SMASH FROM ANOTHER PLAYER EARLIER IN THE WEEK, AND NOVAK IS CERTAINLY PUSHING HIM. AS IF THE RACQUET DAMAGE WASN'T ENOUGH, HE LOST THE SHIRT OFF HIS BACK, BEFORE LOSING 6-4, 6-4. IT'S BAUTISTA AGUT'S FIRST VICTORY OVER DJOKOVIC ` GOOD SIGNS FOR THE SPANIARD BEFORE HE RETURNS TO AUCKLAND TO DEFEND HIS ASB CLASSIC TITLE IN THE NEW YEAR. THANKS.

WE ARE ENJOYING SETTLED-LOOKING SKIES UNDER THE HIGH COVERING MUCH OF THE TASMAN SEA. BUT AN ONSHORE WEST TO SOUTH-WESTERLY FLOW IS SPREADING AREAS OF LOW CLOUD ON TO THE WEST OF AOTEAROA. AREAS OF BRIGHT HIGH CLOUD CAN BE SEEN PASSING OVER BOTH ISLANDS, WITH WAVE CLOUD VISIBLE OVER THE SOUTHEAST OF THE SOUTH ISLAND. A WARM FRONT CROSSED THE SOUTH OF THE SOUTH ISLAND THIS MORNING, HOOKING DOWN INTO A BROAD BAND OF CLOUD CONTAINING VARIOUS FRONTAL FEATURES THAT EXTEND UP INTO SOUTHEAST AUSTRALIA. SO LITTLE CHANGE IN THE WEATHER SITUATION ON MONDAY, AS THE HIGH CENTRED OVER THE TASMAN SEA MAINTAINS A RIDGE OVER CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN NZ. A MEANDERING FRONT REMAINS SLOW-MOVING TO THE SOUTH OF THE SOUTH ISLAND, AND A COLD FRONT APPROACHES THE SOUTH ISLAND FROM THE WEST ON MONDAY AFTERNOON. HOWEVER SOMETHING TO NOTE, THOSE ISOBARS ARE PACKING IN, SO THE NORTH-WESTERLY FLOW STRENGTHENS OVER THE SOUTH ISLAND DURING MONDAY, BETWEEN THE HIGH TO THE NORTH AND THE APPROACHING COOL FRONT. SOUTH ISLAND ` MOSTLY FINE FOR YOUR MONDAY AND MILD IN THE EAST AND UP THROUGH MARLBOROUGH AND NELSON, BUT HIGH CLOUD THICKENING AT TIMES. STRENGTHENING NORTH-WESTERLY WINDS, RISING TO GALE IN EXPOSED SOUTHERN AND EASTERN PARTS FROM EVENING. NORTH ISLAND ` FINE AND MILD IN THE SOUTH AND EAST OF THE NORTH ISLAND TOO, WITH AREAS OF HIGH CLOUD. CLOUDY PERIODS WITH ISOLATED LIGHT SHOWERS IN THE NORTH AND WEST, BUT LONG SUNNY SPELLS IN THE AFTERNOON. WEST TO SOUTH-WESTERLIES, AND STRONG NORTH-WESTERLIES IN THE SOUTH. FOR WEATHER, SEE TVNZ.CO.NZ SO A FINE START TO THE WORKING WEEK, BUT THERE IS SOME MORE WET WEATHER ON THE WAY, WITH THE SOUTH ISLAND SET TO COP IT FIRST. FARMERS IN THE NORTH WILL GET AN EXTRA DRY DAY OR TWO. TAKE CARE AND HAVE A GREAT WEEK. TONIGHT'S GOODSORT IS CAMERON BAKER, A BANKER FROM AUCKLAND.
