England head coach Eddie Jones thinks Steve Borthwick will find the key to beating New Zealand with the British and Irish lions.
Red Rose forwards coach Borthwick was named by Lions chief Warren Gatland as part of his team for next summer's New Zealand tour. Jones has not been shy in saying he wants England to be ranked No.1 in the world and he believes that Borthwick will provide vital insight after working to plot the All Blacks downfall.
It's a great learning experience for him and he gets the opportunity of learning how to beat the Kiwis, which is important, Jones told sky Sports HQ. He's a very analytical coach, a very serious coach and he knows more about line- outs than anyone in the world.

John Key Resigns As Prime Minister
Prime Minister John Key has resigned from his position and will step down next week.
Just before midday the Prime Minister's office announced that they will hold a special news conference at 12.00 pm. There, Mr Key will announce he'll resign, saying it was the hardest decision he ever made. To me, this feels like the right time to go.
Mr Key's resignation means that the National Party will now need to elect a new leader. John Key has been in Parliament for 10 years and has been Prime Minister for 8 years.

Van Gisbergen wins Supercars
Super cars driver Shane van Gisbergen has become the first New Zealander to win the Australian Super car title for 25 years.
Van Gisbergen finished third n the second to last race of the season. The result gave him enough points to claim the title from the race winner Jamie Whincup. It was a dramatic race for van Gisbergen, who started from pole position before falling back to 22nd after being forced to drive through the pit lane as a penalty for contact with another car.
The 27- year old clawed his way back through the field in the last 20 laps, however, to claim the title. The kiwi had a 148 point advantage over Red Bull Racing teammate Whincup going into the final two races at Sydney Olympic Park, Needing fifth or better to wrap up the title in the of first two 250km races.

Greens call for landlords to stop charging quake-displaced renters
The Green Party is urging landlords of quake stricken buildings to stop charging rent to residents who have been displaced due to the Kaikoura earthquake.
Link:
Many inner-city apartment buildings in Wellington have been forced to close following the earthquake, leaving residents without a home. Green Party co- leader James Shaw says continuing to charge rent would be unfair on tenants. I think any landlord should study their creed - if they're still charging rent to residents who can't actually live in the houses or apartment buildings that they've got on offer. They should take a look at that and say, maybe we could give people a break right now, "he said.

Shock after massive NZ quake
News hub talked to people on the streets of Wellington in the hours after the shake. One Australian man said he was staying in airbnb and that was just trashed. We were fast asleep and the building just started moving. I was looking out the window and comparing it to the building next door, and it was just twisting the man said. News hub

Transformers Age of Extinction
Age of Extinction is my favourite movie. My favourite part is Optimus Prime vs Grimlock the dinosaur, Grimlock jumps at but then Optimus Prime hits Grimlock right in the face and he goes flying to the side. He tries to get back up but then Optimus Prime goes over him and grabs out his sword. He convinces Grimlock to join his team and then they leave with the other dinosaurs.
