Black Ferns v Canada

[Stargazer]

Holy moly what a run from Ayesha Leti-I’iga! Stopped just before the try line.

Try Chelsea Bremner.

[Stargazer]

Demant converts the try.

BFs lead 23 - 0. Five minutes to go.

[Stargazer]

Nobody can stop TUI!

What a try! Great break from Du Plessis, great pass to Tui, who steps the defender and outruns another.

Wow! Awesome!

[Stargazer]

Demant misses the conversion. Should have been an easy one.

28 - 0 BFs.

Two minutes to go.

What did the former BF/commentator say? Pickle juice (against cramp)? What the heck is that?

Edit: just googled it. It actually exists!

Yeah like powerade on steroids. Strong stuff

[Stargazer]

Ayesha Leti-I’iga has been named Player of the Match.

[Stargazer]

One more Canadian attack. The hooter has gone.

[NTA]

Canada, like Australia earlier, guilty of poor execution when it really matters. Lineout gone to shit

[Stargazer]

Tui kicks the ball out and it's over. Much better game. Excellent win.

Still plenty to work on, but the improvements are visible.

FT: Black Ferns 28 - 0 Canada

That donut for Canada is significant.

@Dan54 If you know how to use a VPN, you can watch the games on World Rugby's YouTube channel. I've posted the link to today's game in this thread.

@Stargazer Cheers, son in law set up my tv so I can use VPN

Some brief highlights (terrible editing though, and Stevenson has a touch of Nisbo).

Leti-I’iga really butchered a try in the 1st half.

She made upon for it tho, other times

Nice to have a bit of pace out wide with Tui. Better first half than the match against Oz. Forwards worked better together and with a bit more urgency in their play. Liked our 1st 5.

Good win.

Also watched the condensed version of the Oz v USA game and congrats to the US. Thought they played with a bit of endeavour. Oz made way too many mistakes and defended on their heels. Massive win for USA.

She's a bit of an enigma in that sense. Makes great breaks and runs that look for all money like scoring chances but for some reason or another don't finish off.
That one was a shocker though. I wonder if she isnt confident with passing off the left hand although that would be very strange for a left wing.
Smith said that Tui had been practising that chip for 3 weeks. Probably been watching Dougie Howlett videos
