Tonight on The Huddle: Tim Wilson from Maxim Institute and Nick Leggett, Transporting NZ Chief Executive joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day: 

How suspicious is the story about Andrew Kirton's former role as a lobbyist on behalf of liquor firms and the container return scheme getting dumped?

Scott 'Razor' Robertson is the new All Blacks coach-in-waiting after months of speculation. Is this the right choice? Did NZ Rugby even have other options at this point?

Kieran McAnulty met with several mayors who didn't like Three Waters to try and sway their opinions and reconsider aspects of the reform. What new information could these mayors give Kieran? Is it a positive he's at least trying to be proactive?

What can National do to boost their position in the polls? Hipkins has surged ahead of Luxon again- is there hope for National? What is this election going to come down to?
