At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all.



Migration: 3/10

We are still leaving in record numbers. Young New Zealanders deciding this ain’t the place for them. It is a startling and ongoing indictment.



Oil: 6/10

That’s a good thing too. Between the price and the dollar, it's trended in the right direction. Fill your boots.



The NFL season: 8/10

Continues to get bigger globally every year. I'm obsessed with it. It is elite sport at its best.



The IRD: 3/10

Taking our stuff and flicking it off to big tech without asking us is dumb and rude and needs stopping.



Australian rules: 3/10

Governments pretending they can solve problems that haven't been solved anywhere is wasteful. If Australia successfully bans kids from social media I'll eat Rawiri Waititi's hat.



Donald Trump: 2/10

He is his own worst enemy.
