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. 

 

August: 6/10 

Is it just me or is this year moving at pace? Where did seven months go? 

 

The recovery: 4/10 

Yes, by August the recovery was supposed to be here. The greens shoots were to have flourished, and stuff was supposed to be better. 

 

The payWave charge ban: 6/10 

Not perfect, but a practical move that should help. 

 

Rob Penney: 7/10 

Glad he is back, and why not? One bad year and one great year. You want another dose of great, don't you? 

 

Shane Jones: 8/10 

Move of the week. Had a couple of glasses of red, turned his phone off, and missed the alerts. Now that is a plan. 

 

The Warriors: 7/10 

A loss to the Titans and we lose James Fisher-Harris for a couple of weeks as well. If you are a doubter there is a bit of material for you to angst over. But I'm still a believer and this is our year.
