As All Blacks suffer historic lows - is it time to up support for other sports?

The All Blacks have lost five of their last six games. 

Their latest loss against old rival South Africa leaves coach Ian Foster and captain Sam Cane hanging by a thread.  

But it’s not all bad news in New Zealand sport. The woes of our rugby players come amid New Zealand’s biggest ever haul at the Commonwealth Games.

So is it perhaps time to reward our rising stars in other sports with more funding? And what do the current struggles mean for an All Blacks team that recently received huge investment from Silver Lake? 

Today, host of Weekend Sport on Newstalk ZB Jason Pine joins Damien to compare the All Blacks' lows and our Commonwealth Games highs.
