Rugby: Bill Cunningham one of New Zealand’s ‘Originals’ – New Zealand Herald

All Black No 82 William 'Bill' Cunningham was born in the small Waip village of Rangiaowhia, about 4km east of Te Awamutu, on July 8, 1874.

Cunningham was born into a rather famous family tree with grandfather Thomas being a New Zealand whaler, trader and founding father; aunty Kate Wyllie (nee. Halbert) was a New Zealand tribal leader; uncle Otene Pitau was a New Zealand Mori leader; uncle Wi Pere was a Mori Member of Parliament; sister Reremoana Hakiwai was a New Zealand cook and community leader, among many other relatives from future generations like author Witi Ihimaera, Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa's curator Arapata Hakiwai and former All Black Tu Wyllie.

One of 'The Originals' in 1905-1906 that toured Britain, Cunningham moved to Waihi at a young age.

He played his rugby for Waihi West who were then under the boundary of the Auckland Rugby Football Union.

Cunningham moved to Auckland in 1902 and represented the City (Auckland) and Ponsonby clubs.

He played for Auckland from 1899 until 1913.

Cunningham was a lock, considered to be a "powerhouse scrummager", although he was just 180cm tall and 92kg a big man for the time.

He made his debut for New Zealand against Wellington in 1901 at age 27 but his international debut wouldn't come for another four years, against Scotland at Edinburgh.

Cunningham wasn't selected for New Zealand in 1904 but continued to appear for Auckland.

This was the year of the first Ranfurly Shield match.

Due to Auckland's unmatched provincial record at the time they were given the shield.

The first shield challenge was against Wellington, and although Auckland had not lost at home in six years, Wellington defeated them 6-3, forfeiting the shield.

The same season, Cunningham and Auckland defeated the British Isles 130, with Cunningham scoring a try.

As "The Originals" were formed in 1905, Cunningham was recalled to the New Zealand squad.

They set off on-board the Rimutaka, for a six-week voyage to the British Isles.

"The Originals'" played 35 games on their tour and lost only one. Cunningham took the field in 23 of these.

New Zealand scored 976 points and conceded 59, still today known as one of the greatest ever All Blacks sides.

Cunningham played 39 All Blacks matches (1901-1908) which included nine tests, playing prop in one and lock in the other eight, scoring one try.

His total of 22 All Blacks points (matches and tests) consisted of two tries and eight conversions.

A goal kicking lock, something that Wallaby John Eales normalised almost a century later, Cunningham also represented the New Zealand Mori side between 1910 and 1912.

It was said by plenty of other players that "there was none like Cunningham".

In Lindsay Knight's biography of Cunningham for the New Zealand Rugby Museum it said:"With his 45 games for Auckland, 39 including nine internationals for his country and matches for North Island (1902 and 1908) and for New Zealand Mori Cunningham finished with the rare feat for a player of his times of more than a century (103) of first class games.

"Cunningham was noted for his cheerfulness and his determined optimism.

"Once when he had given chase to a noted sprinter in a vain attempt to stop a try he was asked by his teammates as the conversion was being taken why he had bothered when his task was so hopeless. 'Because,' replied Cunningham, 'he might have dropped dead'."

George Gillett, a former New Zealand rugby and rugby league player, also from the Waihi area, had stated that Cunningham was a tough player.

"Our old friend Bill Cunningham, and a number of other old players I could mention, would scorn the idea of any medical attention on the field of play and would pass caustic remarks to others who availed themselves of such attention."

In 1907, during his international career, Cunningham had married Ethel Minnie Dance of Waihi and the same year, their only child William Henry Cunningham was born. Sadly, he passed away at 1-day-old.

Cunningham wasn't just a rugby player; he had also been an axeman, a miner and a freezing works labourer all which would have pushed his case as a strong scrummager.

On September 3, 1927, Cunningham passed away from acute meningitis. At the time he was working at an Auckland freezing works.

Members of the New Zealand, Auckland, New South Wales and Thames Rugby Unions attended Cunningham's wake while 1890s New Zealand representative Fred Murray, and fellow 'Originals' Gillett, George Tyler and George Nicholson were the pallbearers for their fallen friend.

Cunningham was laid to rest at Hillsborough Cemetery, one of the oldest cemeteries in Auckland, which overlooks the Manukau Harbour. He was 52 years old.

An Auckland rugby jersey was thrown on top of his casket, a representation of his service and commitment to the jersey and region buried with his colours.

New Zealand consults on income insurance scheme – Regulatory & Government – Insurance News

Posted: at 6:50 am

7 February 2022

New Zealand has started consultations on a proposed income insurance scheme that would support workers made redundant, laid off or forced to step aside because of a health condition or disability.

The scheme has been designed by the Government, Business New Zealand and the New Zealand Council of Trade Unions and would provide 80% of a persons usual salary for up to seven months, up to the current Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) cap.

Finance Minister Grant Morrison says the scheme is an enduring solution to protect people and the economy after job losses.

As New Zealand moves beyond the economic and social impacts of COVID-19, there are important lessons to be learned from the way we were able to support one another through an unprecedented series of challenges, he said.

During covid, the Wage Subsidy Scheme and Resurgence Support Payment was primarily focused on keeping people in their existing jobs and supporting businesses most directly affected by the pandemic.

Our proposed scheme provides economic security to individuals directly, and supports them to transition into a good, new job, as opposed to economic support packages which keep people in their existing job even if that role is no longer viable, Mr Robertson said.

The scheme would be administered by ACC and would be funded by levies on wages and salaries, with both workers and employers paying an estimated 1.39% each.

The consultation closes on April 26.

New Zealand needs to make more money if we’re to reach our goals as a nation – Stuff.co.nz

Posted: at 6:50 am

Steve Maharey is a Director and was formerly the Vice-Chancellor of Massey University and a Labour Cabinet Minister.

OPINION: Many years ago, I talked with a senior German government official about his view of New Zealand. He had just flown to New Zealand and while on the plane he had been reading briefing papers.

He gained the impression that New Zealand was a rich nation. But upon arrival he quickly formed another view. New Zealand he said, was good at keeping up appearances.

What he meant by this quaint phrase was that we managed to look well-off when in fact we were not.

READ MORE:* The big challenges of 2022 and a way forward * Why we should be rolling out the welcome mat to double vaxxed Aucklanders * 'Reckoning' coming for unsustainable tax system, commentator says

Relatively, of course, it is nonsense to say New Zealand is not a rich country. We are ranked around the middle of OECD nations and we (well, many) have a lifestyle that most countries envy. There are plenty of countries worse off.

But this is not the point. It is not a matter of how many nations we are richer than, it is a question of whether we can afford our collective aspirations.

Right now, those aspirations are on stark display. Every day, I read in the media demands for greater investment in infrastructure, climate change mitigation, the environment, housing, health, education, welfare payments, the arts, science, superannuation, conservation, sport the list goes on and on and on.

There may be areas that do not warrant immediate attention but most do. Our health sector, for example, had underlying conditions before Covid, it is now on life support. The same can be said for many items on the list.

The answer for some is simple raise taxes. There is merit in this argument even if only to ensure those on higher incomes pay a fairer share.

But as anyone who has done the sums knows, there are not enough high earners to bridge the gap between national income and national aspirations.

That gap can only be bridged if we have the kind of economy that earns more, allows for higher incomes and sees New Zealanders able to pay more tax.

Wealth on its own will not solve our problems. The United States is the biggest economy in the world and is home to the highest proportion of rich individuals but almost every aspect of its society is crumbling for lack of investment.

The wealth must be shared, and the Government of the day needs the kind of resources that allows it to invest in the areas we will all benefit from.

This is not an easy argument to make. Those on the right of politics might argue for more wealth, but they have an aversion to paying tax even while they lambast governments for not doing enough.

Those on the left seem more focused on spending what wealth there is rather than earning more.

ROBERT KITCHIN/Stuff

Steve Maharey is a former Cabinet Minister and vice-chancellor of Massey University.

We need to come to an agreement on the need to earn more, pay more tax and support governments to invest in our collective wellbeing.

One of the catchphrases to come out of Covid is Build Back Better. For me this has two elements. The first is that we should focus on quality not quantity. In tourism, for example, lets focus on a smaller number of tourists who spend more.

The second is a more productive, higher-earning economy. We are, for example, a food producing nation. But a casual assessment would suggest we earn about a third of what we could from land and sea because we produce too many commodities and too few finished value-add food products.

How do we make the shift? If Covid was our collective mission over the past two years, our economy now needs to have the same attention.

Leadership from government is essential. A sense of shared purpose between government and business is fundamental.

What we do not want is for anyone to believe that we can pay for our collective aspirations with the economy we currently have.

Ever since the reforms of the 1980s, New Zealanders have hoped for a more inclusive and prosperous future. Perhaps now, in the shadow of Covid, we might decide that the reward for the sacrifices made will come from working together to create the economy we need.

Rare moment Greens and National agree on NZ’s housing ‘challenges’ – 1News

Posted: at 6:50 am

In a rare moment, Auckland Central Green MP Chle Swarbrick and Deputy National leader Nicola Willis have found common ground on aspects of New Zealands housing inequality, including the accommodation supplement.

The accommodation supplement is a payment which helps New Zealand families on low and middle incomes cover their housing costs if they meet certain income and cash-reserve criteria.

Swarbrick took issue with the supplement, and told Breakfast it was going directly into the pockets of landlords, there is thorough research on this now."

And Willis agreed: "Well that's right, one of the major challenges with the accommodation supplement which was made to help people pay their rent, is that there is evidence against it gets passed on to landlords, it doesn't drive new housing supply John.

That's why I promote, let's give community housing providers direct capital funding to build more homes for lower income tenants.

"Direct capital funding."

Thats something we can largely agree with, and it's something that's within the Green's homes for All policy in 2020, Swarbrick said.

Willis said more affordable homes needed to be built for low-income tenants.

Swarbrick also urged that the housing problem was happening right now.

"Whats going to happen in the next year for renters in particular, 1.4m New Zealanders who are living, as we all know, in far less higher quality places than those who own their own property.

How the good intentions of ‘New Zealand Day’ diminished the mana of the Treaty – Stuff.co.nz

Posted: at 6:50 am

The conversations that New Zealand families had sitting around the dinner table on February 6, 1974, were contrasting.

For Pita Tipene, 13 at the time, his parents were criticising then Prime Minister Norman Kirk for stripping away the significance of Te Tiriti o Waitangi.

Others were excited a new era may have begun.

The Labour Government had changed Waitangi Day to New Zealand Day to reframe the day on which Mori and the Crown signed the foundational document of Aotearoa in 1840.

READ MORE:* Waitangi Day: A legacy of protest* Covid-19: Crown must stop paying lip-service and sharpen its response times, Ngti Hine leader tells Waitangi Tribunal* The Ngti Maru Claims Settlement Bill is open for submissions

History remembers the name change as a bid to bring a greater sense of nationhood to the country, so that Mori, European, and every other culture could come together under one flag and celebrate as one people.

RICKY WILSON/Stuff

Ngti Hine leader Pita Tipene says the foundations of Te Tiriti o Waitangi are still yet to be met.

But Tipenes whnau saw the change in a different light.

Tipene, chair of the Waitangi National Trust Board and leader of Ngti Hine, says he was too young at the time to understand the significance of the name change.

What got put in the newspapers and into Google searches is a little bit different to what was happening here.

Hindsight is God's gift to fools, I wouldnt have realised at the time.

Just 14 years prior, the Waitangi Day Act of 1960 declared that February 6 be known as Waitangi Day and would be observed nationally although not as a public holiday.

However, Kirk announced in 1973 that the following year the day would be known as New Zealand Day and that it would become a national public holiday.

The commemorations at Waitangi in 1974 were nothing short of pageantry, with Queen Elizabeth II in attendance for the celebrations, which included the show, Aotearoa, depicting the country's journey towards nationhood with parts played by people of many cultures.

However, New Zealand Day proved to be short-lived.

Stuff

Queen Elizabeth II and then Prime Minister Norman Kirk at Waitangi on New Zealand Day, 1974.

Following Kirks sudden death in 1974, and the National Partys rise to power under Robert Muldoon, the Waitangi Day Act of 1976 put an end to Kirks vision.

But Tipene says the New Zealand Day vision was flawed from the beginning.

People in our community thought it was a whitewash and trying to water down Te Tiriti and what it means to tpuna.

They were trying to appease middle New Zealand.

Kelly Hodel/Stuff

Kaumtua and Professor Tom Roa says there were mixed feelings about New Zealand Day among Mori.

Kaumtua and Mori and indigenous studies Professor Tom Roa, of Ngti Maniapoto and Waikato Tainui, was studying at Victoria University at the time.

He remembers mixed perspectives across Moridom about the name change.

I do recall some of our people welcoming this inclusiveness. There was a genuine Mori euphoria, there was hope for a better society and if there was hope at recovering, then lets try it.

However, he also remembers others viewing the name change as another way for the Crown to ignore the promises of Te Tiriti.

KATHRYN GEORGE/STUFF

Stuff's NZ Made/N Nu Treni project: When the Treaty of Waitangi was signed, Mori owned more than 66 million acres of land. By 1975, almost 97 per cent had been sold or taken. (Last published February 1, 2021.)

New Zealand Day was a Crown construct. It may have had all the good intentions in the world, but it ignored the Mori partners.

Naming it New Zealand Day gave it a preference to the English. Had the proper treatment been made to consult with the treaty partners, the day would have remained Waitangi Day.

Still, Roa says he appreciates what Kirk was trying to do.

By separating Treaty issues from a day of unity, Kirk was trying to bring the nation together as a whole, but it is impossible to separate the two, says Roa.

The issue is Te Tiriti o Waitangi was an agreement between the rangatira Mori who signed the treaty of the time and the Crown, but over time the Crown made all the decisions.

Te Tiriti o Waitangi was a promise of the future, he says, but changing the name of the day marking its signing without consultation and moving forward without understanding what the Treaty represented and meant to Mori was the wrong move, Roa says.

I grew up with the stories and saw that, in the early days, there was real promise, Roa says. But then those who saw opportunities through using the war machinery of the most powerful country at the time, they didnt want to share with Mori the riches of this land, and the promise of Te Tiriti was destroyed. I think were still suffering the effects today.

I think people like Pita and I, I would call us fortunate in that our parents talked to us about this, our elders shared with us as it was important for us to know.

John Bisset/Stuff

Te Tiriti o Waitangi is about the promise of a future for all, like Aria Patangata, pictured at a Waitangi Day celebration in 2020.

The mana of [Waitangi] and the rangatira there who first signed the Treaty are somewhat diminished when we say its New Zealand Day, but the mana is strengthened when we say Waitangi Day.

Tipene says there have been huge strides in respect for the Treaty since he was sitting at that table with his whnau 50 years ago.

There's a wider understanding of what Governor William Hobson declared when the Treaty was signed, Tipene says.

When Hobson said He iwi tahi ttou at Waitangi when the Treaty was signed, he wasnt saying we are one people, says Tipene. He was saying we are two people, one nation.

Send your tips, story ideas and comments to poutiaki@stuff.co.nz

Im one, and one of many, who really appreciates the significance.

Its the signing of a document that set the foundations of a nationhood that certainly havent been reached but we are on a journey where New Zealanders are changing in their hearts and minds.

Some still view February 6 as a day for the beach or a public holiday to do as you please, but Tipene says all New Zealanders should take the time to think about the past, how its impacted the present, and where Aotearoa wants to be in the future.

All New Zealanders should be thinking about what it meant in 1840, and what it means now in 2022 and beyond.

Atlanta Braves: Tyler Matzeks best tweets of the offseason so far – Call to the Pen

Posted: at 6:49 am

Atlanta Braves relief pitcher Tyler Matzek has not only become one of the go-to guys for the Braves out of the bullpen, but hes also become a must-follow on Twitter for his spot-on tweets.

He may have just given up three home runs in his 78.2 regular-season and postseason innings for the Atlanta Braves last year, but Matzek has already hit plenty of bombs this offseason with his thoughts on the current Major League Baseball lockout and more.

What was Matzeks reaction when Major League Baseball suggested bringing in a mediator to help solve the current lockout? Using a metaphor, it was pretty easy to figure out that Matzek (along with the majority of MLB players) werent impressed with the efforts that MLB had put forth in the effort to end the lockout so far.

Earlier in the month, the Atlanta reliever also floated the idea of the players getting together to play some games in a similar style to made-for-television matchups that have been put together in golf. Would fans tune in? Its an interesting question and thought from Matzek.

Matzek also put together a thought-provoking thread laying out some comparisons between Major League Baseball and the National Football League. Yes, the USFL is coming back to life after the conclusion of the Super Bowl. Will fans tune in and will it become a competitor to the NFL in time?

So far, weve only looked at what Matzek thinks about what is going on in the present. How about a look into a crystal ball from the Atlanta reliever? Matzek is also predicting what the future might look like for relief pitchers (who are people, by the way) who are in his position.

And, as the New Year began, Matzek sent out a word of encouragement.

All of these tweets and more from Matzek have given fans insight into a pitcher who has overcome so much to reach where he is today. Drafted by the Colorado Rockies 11th overall in the 2009 MLB draft, Matzek fell victim to the yips, throwing his career in doubt. However, in a fascinating story, Matzek began working through the issue with the help of a former Navy SEAL and began his climb back to MLB.

That climb landed him in the Braves bullpen and eventually a key role in Atlanta winning the 2021 World Series.

Reigniting the Pentagon and Silicon Valley partnership – TechCrunch

Mike Brown is the director of the Defense Innovation Unit. Prior to DIU, Mike served as CEO of Symantec Corporation and Chairman and CEO of Quantum Corporation. Mike also served for two years as a White House Presidential Innovation Fellow at DoD where he co-authored a Pentagon study on Chinas participation in the U.S. venture ecosystem. The views expressed in the article reflect those of the author and do not reflect the official policy or position of the Department of Defense or the U.S. Government.

TheTechCrunch Global Affairs Projectexamines the increasingly intertwined relationship between the tech sector and global politics.

On November 15, 2021 Russia launched an anti-satellite missile into low-earth orbit without warning, successfully destroying a Russian satellite. Projectile debris from this event not only endangered the astronauts aboard the International Space Station, but also could cause severe damage to satellites that support critical infrastructure here on Earth, such as GPS and power grids, for many years to come.

Just one month prior, China launched a hypersonic missile that circled the Earth and would be impossible to defend against with current technology.

These events are a wake-up call: The United States technological leadership is not assured, and the global standards we developed and maintained with our partners and allies are being rewritten, as new technological advancements give rise to new threats to our nations security.

But these new threats are not insurmountable. In fact, these events should serve as a clarion call for entrepreneurs and investors at the forefront of emerging technology domains, including artificial intelligence, space, cybersecurity and autonomous systems.

To meet the rising challenges posed by asymmetric and cyber warfare, we need to work together Pentagon, academia, and industry as we did more than 60 years ago to build Silicon Valley and our nations technological leadership of today. Government investments helped to create the internet and semiconductors, as well as map the human genome.

I came to the Department of Defense after 30 years in the commercial technology sector to help rebuild the ties that underwrote much of our countrys economic strength and global leadership over the past half century.

The DoD is actively pursuing a technology modernization agenda that not only reflects the changing nature of warfare but also engenders a series of necessary business process reforms. For example, in commercial space, companies are already deploying small satellites to provide more ubiquitous internet access and pioneer rapid launch capability to deliver payloads to various geospatial layers; self-driving cars are providing transportation options; swarming drones are surveilling oil pipelines and inspecting commercial buildings and infrastructure.

These innovations are all dual-use technologies, meaning they have military applications as well. Networking these solutions together is supported by global cloud options that are cost-effective, secure and scalable. Just like companies do, the military needs to harness the insights contained in voluminous data to generate predictive capabilities through AI and machine learning that yield faster and better decision-making.

Business process reforms are equally important to improving our defense posture. Most of the DoDs business processes were established in the 1960s and focused on building large weapons platforms such as tanks, ships and planes. Rapid advancements in the commercial sector, which promise to enhance our militarys technological edge, mean that the Pentagon now needs to buy many more technologies that complement the large weapons platforms we continue to buy.

Its clear the coming decade will be one characterized by intense competition among nations for preeminence in technology. For an increasing number of commercial vendors, this will represent an unprecedented opportunity to tackle complex problems together with the Defense Department.

For instance, with assets in air, space, undersea, on land and in cyberspace, the national security apparatus is effectively the largest collection of sensors in the world. To date, however, these sensors are not designed to seamlessly integrate; rather, they are typically built and operated in silos, making it challenging to implement updates and develop a common operating picture. Building an Internet of Things in spacea global sensor network would provide real-time situational awareness, a resilient communications infrastructure as a backbone for operational decisions and the basis for an autonomous force of sea, land, air and space systems that are small, numerous and agile.

These systems will generate immense amounts of data requiring increased storage, management and analytics, and technology modernization means building better tools to collect information, analyze it, understand it, and make better decisions in the interest of national security. It will also involve more sophisticated protection from cyber vulnerabilities.The physical manifestation of these new capabilities will require greener energy use.

Commercial companies are developing these technologies today, and the DoD must increase its capacity to quickly assess and efficiently procure these solutions enhancing our national security and driving commercial prosperity. Executing this vision means more companies than ever before can participate in a once-in-a-generation economic opportunity that likewise enhances national security in the 21st Century.

To deliver the best technology to our military, then-Defense Secretary Ash Carter recognized the need to break down institutional barriers and inject fresh ideas, technologies, and methodologies from the commercial sector. In 2015, he announced the opening of the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) to rebuild this connection. DIU was designed to bring innovative and faster contracting mechanisms to bear, making it easier, more desirable and more profitable to do business with the DoD.

At DIU weve already seen how powerful this collaboration can be, from providing ongoing investment at key points of hardware and software lifecycles, uninterrupted access to testing facilities, and showing commercial companies a path to linear growth in the defense sector. This collaboration can accelerate a products development or stimulate a companys growth, showing investors access to new markets.

But maintaining U.S. leadership in key technologies requires changing the 60-year-old acquisition system. DoD is no longer the first mover, the primary investor, or market maker for many technologies today. DoD needs to become a fast follower, adapting and integrating commercial technology not developed by the DoD, to solve defense problems. To do this, DIU is advocating action in three areas:

These three areas may seem obvious but overcoming long-established processes in defense planning and Congressional approval is not easy. And ensuring we can make the sound business case to technology firms of supporting work in national security is essential since there are large markets to serve outside of defense

Accelerating the pace of change and removing barriers cannot be done solely inside the DoD or with a select few commercial companies participating. We need all sides of the triangle of business, academia and government actively engaged, providing different ideas and approaches to accelerate our pace of modernization. Rebuilding the connection between DoD and commercial industry from exchanging talent, acquiring products, having open communications on key issues is critical.

DoD leadership recognizes that we are living through a technological moment unlike any other in our nations history. DIU has a unique and important role to play in bringing commercial technology and methodologies to modernize both critical parts of the militarys infrastructure. Together, like we have done in the past with the birth of Silicon Valley, we can ensure a secure and prosperous future for our nation.
