@Crucial Though missing out on the QF because of a worse points differential.
South Africa missing out as well.
We were shite. Players look laboured and predictable

For who doesn't know: NZ lost 14 - 29 to Australia.
That's quite the turnaround on previous fixtures. Just a blip tho.

Our work at kickoff both ways is a major problem. Curry Mikkelsen and NG Shiu very good.
Terrible technique and that’s the coaches fault. They are lifting the catcher front on and exposing themselves to interference. Oz obviously spotted it in previous games and targeted the flaw.
I don’t think it’s a blip. I think we have some good personnel but the strategy and style is just awful. This whole soaking and moving back waiting for an opportunity is a terrible strategy and doesn’t take advantage of our big bodies and breakdown abilities.
The Black ferns by contrast go forward hard and look to shift the defence around -

In this case they have changed. Just for the worse.

Spain aren't that good.

Didn't watch the game, but as expected, it was a clear win for the AB7s. They beat Spain 36 - 7.
Watched the BF7s play Fijiana. Great match-up against a good team, but the BF7s were too good. They won 24 - 14.
Men's 9th place play-off:
2:08am: AB7s v ScotlandWomen's Cup Final:
3:56am: BF7s v AustraliaThe Aussie women looking very strong against Ireland in the semis. It will be a tough game for the BFs.
