Top ten things to say to former BLACKCAPS coach Glenn Turner while you're both accidentally locked inside Bunnings Warehouse overnight
Sport Review #132
I loved that little skip over cover you used to do, if I bowled this tin of paint to you could you show me how to play it with a saw?
I strongly think your moustache would be better with some lime green spray paint in it.
Where do you think they keep the sausages?
So that West Indies tour… coping with both Chris Cairns and Adam Parore would be a handful for any coach, but would it have helped if you weren’t such a massive bummer yourself?
Can you put the line trimmer down? I would appreciate it.
Are you the ex-coach or John Morrison, I get confused.
Who’s more famous out of you and The Chills? I mean you did do the 1000 runs in May thing, but Rolling Moon. Come on.
We should construct some shelves. It’ll be fun.
Walk me through how you time your grumpy ex-coach stuff in the papers? Is it when there’s something actually wrong or just when you’re bored?
Got any funny memes on your phone? That aren’t about Alan Border?
