-Tidied the Jack Bauer cycling stories which came through from Christchurch

-Called Craig Stanaway about talking to one of the Breakers regarding them settling into their Aussie bubble but he said it wasn't a good day for them to talk. He said to call again Saturday and he'd be able to sort something out for us.

-Talked to Nico Porteous; I know five cuts is way over the top but didn't have much else to do. Can use over Christmas and New Year's.

-America's Cup presser has been recorded and is in scripts; think Matt has his own recording but it's there as a backup.

-Reached out to Rubin Statham regarding the Doha Aussie Open qualifiers; he said he can chat Saturday at 1 pm.

-Got rid of those Devon Conway tapes, they were previewing the Pakistan series and never got used.

-SAILING: there are some strong Jimmy Spithill's on Team NZ being the fastest boat etc plus some general preview from Paul Goodison and Peter Burling. MB

-I had to leave a few minutes early to catch the last train so only had time to do two Blackcaps wraps by the time the audio came through. The audio is in sportsraw though.

TO DO:
