Description: At the top of the cartoon are the words 'The rapture...' The cartoon shows a man who represents 'fans' who has sprouted wings and is flying up to heaven with an ecstatic smile on his face. On the ground is a newspaper with a headline reading 'Carter & McCaw re-sign with NZRU'. Context - The re-signing of All Blacks Dan Carter and Richie McCaw for the next four years is good cause for New Zealand rugby fans to get the champagne glasses out and celebrate, for more than one reason. It means the All Blacks retain the two best players in the world, players a coach can build a team around. More flexible contracts will greatly lessen the threat of losing our best talents overseas. The 'rapture' refers to a prediction that the world was going to end. Harold Camping, the 89-year-old California evangelical broadcaster and former civil engineer behind the pronouncement that judgement day was nigh seemed to go silent when nothing happened on 21 May 2011. It was supposed to begin with another earthquake in New Zealand. Quantity: 1 digital cartoon(s).
