Mark Dillon: Five-time New Zealand Ploughing Champion on the NZ team's equipment going missing at sea on the way to the World Ploughing Championships

from The Mike Hosking Breakfast · host Newstalk ZB

Our national ploughing team may be at a disadvantage at the World Ploughing Championships in Croatia.  The team’s tractors, ploughs, tools, parts, and uniforms have gone missing at sea – ending up in Tasmania.  They now have plans to borrow equipment from overseas if it doesn't arrive by the fifth of September.   Five-time New Zealand champion, Mark Dillon told Mike Hosking it won't be the same without the gear.  He says it's like playing golf with someone else's clubs, they need their own – and they've also spent a lot of money on modifications.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
