Rugby is the official religion of New Zealand.  I also seem to pickup the local taxi firm as well at times, is there some way of tuning it into Concert FM?

Its not the radio waves its the rugby- it gets into everything, very
aggressive. i met a guy in NSW
and it was broadcasting directly out of him , it's all he could talk
about. Put one of those china dolls with the hula skirts on top of your
tron, that will ward it away.
