OPINION: The Dominion Post should take a bow. What a lovely photo of All Whites goalkeeper Mark Paston with his little son, Jack (Sport, Nov 13).

I think it should get a prize for the photo of the year. It was delightful.

Jack, with his little fingers grasping the net in the photo, was surely thinking, "No-one, but no-one, is going to get the ball into the back of my father's net on Saturday night".

And how right that proved because, when the crunch came with that penalty, I think Jack would have made sure that dad dived to the right and that his hands grasped the ball.

More photos like this make your paper a pleasure to read.

Should Waitangi Day be used as a chance to party?

Yes, it is a good day to relax and let off steam.

No, it should be a day of reflection and respect.

I don't care. Everyone is different.
