Wynne Gray calls for a moment of common sense following Ma'a Nonu's expletive-laden post-match interview last week in The New Zealand Herald.

"The midfielder, by all accounts, was a little bit emotional after a tough win for the 'Canes when a radio reporter plonked a microphone under his nose and asked a few questions. "What did the soundbite searcher expect? "Oh, I'm really tired now but it was wonderful to get a victory and stay in the hunt for the Super 14 playoffs." Instead he got the raw emotion of the moment and those back in the studio chose to broadcast the response. "If they did not like the tenor of the conversation, they could have cancelled it with their dump button.Nonu had just scored two tries as part of a great Hurricanes comeback and, when interviewed, let rip with seven expletives in a short space of time."
