I'm watching on the official site. ITV have the rights here and any game they aren't showing live WR streams.

For NZ Sky have all the rights and WR can't stream anything even if Sky aren't showing it live.

VPNs may be your friend unless WR has identified use and blocked them

sweet thanks mate

Winiata with a nice run and kick ahead, gets a shit bounce then an even rougher one when she goes to toe ahead. Lost opportunity.

[Crucial]

And just show what a weird thing the rugby ball is a loose pass is toed ahead by Brazier who gets another little kick that bounces straight up into her arms and she passes for Woodman to score.

easier kick this time but still no conversions. Horror kicking display 0/5

25-0 after 53 minutes

[Crucial]

Close range try from Blackwell takes it out to 30-0

[Crucial]

Wow Cocksedge finally gets one. 32-0

[Crucial]

Wales not as bad as the scoreline suggests. Their forwards are strong and their 14 has some talent and speed. The ferns simply way to good on defence for them to break through and their handling just a little laboured.

[Crucial]

As I wrote that they get a try. Poor communication in defence with the new 10 for NZ and a hole opens from a lineout. Got us backpedalling rapidly and a try near the posts.

32-7

[Crucial]

Winiata gets a break and no one can get near her. Afterburners on and a try under the sticks. This one should be easy even for Cocksedge.

And it is 39-7 64 minutes

[Crucial]

Cocksedge may be a crap kicker but she has a nice pass that creates width

[Crucial]

Now she gets a YC after a reactive reach for the ball becomes a deliberate knock on when Wales were in the red zone.

[Crucial]

Wales score from the resulting lineout drive but more shite kicking and its 39-12

[Crucial]

Wales looking like they have never had to fight for their lunch against big brown girls before.

Obviously no one told them that is what makes our ABs good. Growing up with big sisters.

[Crucial]

Simple quick hands and a huge overlap for Winiata who goes in for a hat trick.
No conversion and it's 44-12 5 to go

[Crucial]

Wickliffe player of the match even though she only played 60 minutes

[Crucial]

Ball lost over the line from one of the big girls on the crash and that ends the game.

44-12
NZ
Tries: SC Winiata (3) RWM Wickliffe (2) ES Blackwell P Woodman SJ Waaka
Conversions: KM Cocksedge (2)

Wales
Tries: SM Harries M Clay
Conversions: E Snowsill

They looked like they enjoyed that hit out but will need to cut down the mistakes and learn to deal with driving mauls better for the big games.

Meanwhile England Heifers beat Spain 56-5
USA leading Italy 7-0 after 3 minutes and there are 3 more games to come today

By the way, those six missed conversions could come back to bite in the second round of the tournament.

I have just read the rules to see how the three pools work and basically you need to win your pool (for us that probably means beating Canada) or be the best second placed team (points difference). As we are probably the best of the 4-6 ranked we should get through but would then face the best team in the semi.
If we win the pool then ranking 1-3 will also be PD.
