    @booboo Whittaker's kinda get a win here as well. Kiwis see the Cadbury logo on the Wallabies and say fuck that.

    Also apparently Cadbury products are banned in the U.S?

    actually with that logic, it might be a bad move by cadbury if it negatively impacts their strong market share in NZ

    Mondelez won't be happy if it fails.........unlikely though..still think its positive

    At least the biggest drama with the sponsor is palm oil and some “funny” memes, not a government bailout or a bank that the government has bailed out

    And as for straight up design not bad, no big green box or a bastardised version like we had with AIG

    Whittaker’s had done some good marketing before, they’ve done some all blacks choc, wouldn’t be surprised to see a little more, maybe sponsor training strip?

    Is vehemently anti I Folau Qantas outfit dumping the Wallabies more fallout from that saga?

    @higgins I think it’s just they’re broke after COVID so pulled things like sponsorships

    @bayimports Cadbury's market share in NZ has been declining for years due to a series of poor decisions by Mondelez (e.g., the closing of the Dunedin factory, using palm oil, reducing the size of their king size blocks, moving product manufacturing to Aust). Meanwhile Whittakers regularly tops NZ's most trusted brand list.

    Kiwis will have another reason to boycott Cadbury. 🙂

    there aren't many things more overrated than the Peanut Slab

    some of the other stuff is pretty good though. They have a salted caramel that's great. And as for the Jelly Tip...

    Falling yes, still relatively strong even after damage looking at net revenue in NZ compared to all others in the confectionary business, dont get me wrong @Bovidae I agree with your points especially around trust. Whittakers has been a huge success regardless.

    @NTA You must have decent numbers if you can name a full bench for your 3rd XV. That's something most clubs over here can only dream about!

    Tipped by his team mate..

    Rennie worked with him before so that should help. I think Aussie has better options though

    Morgan Turinui saying Randwick are very supportive of Penrith and Parramatta and a Western Sydney presence in the Sydney Shute Shield.
