East FM broadcasting from Howick Hornets on Saturday arvo

Phil from Farm Cove

The team of East FM is buzzing about returning to produce an outside broadcast from the home ground of our mighty Howick Hornets Rugby League Club, tomorrow, Saturday, July 9. We’ll be live on-air from Paparoa Park from 12.30pm to 4.30pm.
And the main game we’ll be commentating from 2.30pm is the much-anticipated top-of-the-table clash in the Auckland Rugby League’s SAS Fox Memorial Premiership (section one), Howick Hornets vs Pt Chevalier Pirates.
The Pirates are unbeaten after seven rounds on 16 points, while the Hornets are in second place on 14 points with six wins and a loss.
Both Howick and Pt Chev have proud records in the men’s premiership over the past 12 years, with the Pirates winning four championships and the Hornets two (2011, 2019), with the past two seasons abandoned because of Covid lockdowns.
The East FM team will also be talking with club identities in the first two hours of the broadcast and setting the scene for the match of the day.

East FM is East Auckland’s powerhouse community-driven public service radio station, broadcasting on local frequencies 88.1FM and 107.1FM, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on the iHeart Radio app.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
