Hey everyone - I know this is a big ask so I'll keep it short.

I'm Dom - you might know me from the Flying Kiwis or being in the stands at an AFC game.

I've spent the last couple of years trying to tell stories within football in NZ. I believe the best sport stories are the ones about the people, and at this years Men's World Cup there's an opportunity to tell New Zealand's football stories to the world.

I'm applying for DAZN48, where they are selecting one creator per nation to tell the story of the World Cup from a fan perspective. From the bottom of the world, I believe New Zealand has one of the most unique, yet incredible, stories at the competition.

But there's an issue, there's a minimum follower requirement, and I need 3,000 followers on Instagram (@domjohnson.co.nz) before Sunday. I know that's a big ask, but if you believe in what I'm doing, even a repost to someone who would be interested would mean a lot.

Thank you either way. Just a Kiwi trying to make some noise for NZ football.

Heard some news coming out of today that Māngere u17 started a huge fight between both players and parents. With it already being on the news last season about youth teams having big fights like this it asks the question about something being done. Should have seen SAR youth teams every season and how they treat opponents

Anyone seen where to get one or if they exist?

For anyone wanting to watch the conclusion to the most exciting title race in Europe, this Saturday night is the final match between the top 2 which will be a decider for the ages. Hearts are eyeing up a first non old firm title since Sir Alex Ferguson, and will go into the game with a win guaranteeing it.

The New Zealand Heart of Midlothian Supporters Association (real thing) have got a watch party organised at The Corner in Remuera. All neutrals or curious parties welcome. Celtic fans still allowed but I assume they'll have their own thing going somewhere else in the city.

Match is a late one, 11:30pm kickoff, but the kiwi Jambos will be there from at least 7 getting a head of steam and ready to convert any willing new supporters to the finest team north of the Tweed

Hi there, I was going with my son but his trip has been delayed due to uni exam. I’m just looking to recoup cost. Really good front section to side of goal. I have reference available from NZ Football colleagues. Plus me for company 😎⚽️ please message me if interested or to find out more 👍

Anyone knows if TVNZ will stream the 2026 FIFA World Cup in 4K?
Or will it just be 1080p like current sports streams on TVNZ+?
