Still great game from the BF7s. Losing Hirini was the difference.
Nah. We had possession and why we took it into contact is beyond me.
-
@ACT-Crusader I'm convinced it made the differnce. She's a great leader and would have calmed them down when they were under pressure.
-
There were literally 5 seconds on the clock. She had already taken the ball away from the line and all she had to do was hold it or even run backwards. Unless our captain would rip the ball away from her then it would make no difference. That was poor play that cost us possession and ultimately winning the game.
-
@ACT-Crusader Why rip it away. She has a voice and can tell her what to do.

Why wasn't Woodman starting instead of Saili? Hotham and Te Tamaki added something off the bench.
Standard Sevens train of thought these days. You keep a little firepower on the bench for injection at the right moment.
Saili was a bit hot and cold in her games but I could see why they wanted her there at the start with the option to yank her off.
Woodman is also more effective once the initial feeling out period has passed. Blyde attracts more defenders and tires the opposing forwards -
