I expected Tapsell to start at 6 instead of Reynolds.
@Stargazer I'm dead set impressed you follow the Women's game well enough to have an opinion on selections!

@stargazer Given the players aren't paid some players could have been unavailable (work commitments etc). Toka Natua isn't in the Chiefs squad and is the starting LH prop for the Black Ferns. Maybe she is injured, I don't know.
The same for Carla Hohepa.
