Now mate , you missed one or two relevant facts in the story - the woman ( she is 26 if I recall correctly ) has lived in Australia since she was 6 months old . That hardly makes her a New Zealander , now mate does it ? She has to have grown up in the Aussie manner ...hasnt been back here at all...

Is Joh Bielke-Peterson an Aussie ? He was born in NZ and went to Aussie as a four year old ....
