[QUOTE="Redcatstorm, post: 766835, member: 50508"] [FONT=arial][SIZE=2]Thats a bit of an incorrect conclusion to make from the survey, 37% are perhaps over invested but that does not necessarily mean the other 63% dislike rugby or the all blacks they just have higher priorities. It is also easy to lead people conducting a survey by the way you word the question or by having them rate something out of 10 and only having numbers higher then say 7 as showing interest, it slants the survey to indicate disinterest. Then they make broad statements like [COLOR=#333333]"In both 2015 and 2011, people wrote that they would be 'secretly' pleased or would have to 'pretend to be sorry' if the All Blacks lost," she said. "And in 2011, some were accused of being traitors, unpatriotic or not true Kiwis for merely expressing a lack of interest." how many people 1, 2, 100 they don't say because they are looking for facts to back up a preconceived hypothesis rather then creating one from the facts a clear case of confirmation bias. Finally a survey of 193 people are you F-ing kidding me, talk about a non-representative sample size to be making a claim the majority of New Zealanders don't like the All Blacks.
