Second half has had a pretty big dip in quality unfortunately
Fitness I guess. No lack of effort
Yeah, that's what you get when you play a game of this intensity in the first half of the club rugby season; no doubt it would be different if they played this game straight after the FPC or after a proper SR preseason.

Those (little) girls in the crowd. They (and those watching the game on the telly) are the ones, who will be inspired to pick up a rugby ball and play the game. That's one of the reasons why it's so good that this game is being played. It can only be good for the growth of girls' and women's rugby.

@kiwimurph spot on , poor breakdown work ..and no backline structure , you would almost think we were talking about …?
-
I wonder if the crowd will leave when this game ends ..?

Shock horror , a penalty against the chiefs ..😂

FT: Blues Women 12 - 39 Chiefs Women
Entertaining game; I enjoyed watching that, esp the first half. Unfortunately, the Blues couldn't keep up in the second.
If they can turn this into a real comp, with a good preparation, good coaching and players able to focus on training and playing (more than in the preparation of this game), then it could be really good viewing. This is only a start; the flow-on effect of games like this on women's rugby can't be underestimated. More, please.
