Blatant truck and trailer.
Fuck off black has not taken that into the in goal! It was clearly Wales trying to place it and having it stolen!
Really need to ditch refs officiating games with their own country involved...
Dude is nothing to do with country, it's just general incompetence of all these amateur refs. The non Welsh TMO agreed
It's a joke.
You should only tell a joke once.
Foster is fat

Ref is Scottish. I think? TMO is probably a Brit too...

I hope McLeod is watching the Ferns rush
If only the ABs opponents were Welsh women eh?
Am I right in thinking that's the first time the ref has put her arm out for red not rolling away?

Dunno, wouldn't surprise

Has NZ rugby thought about raiding the netball/basketball ranks for some height at lock?

Our locks seem tall enough.

@RoninWC yeah, he won't be selecting this week's Ruby Tui. Hopefully last week's Ruby Tui is available.
Agreed but when you compare Tui this week at fullback to last week's fullback, things get a little more murky.
From the first 2 games, I think that Stacey Flueler has to be in the starting side and Woodman is definitely locked in. 10, 12 and 15 are still question marks.
As a self confessed fan, Ayesha should be there too.

Actually, based on today's game, at 10 I'd have Demant. She played really well, run the cutter well, cleaned up a lot and was pretty cool, calm and collected.

Well. Not impressive but flush the dunny...
Not impressed with the scrum.
Bit too much too early too.
Scrum, yeah. The props don't set right. Too high. Backs not straight. They all run too high into contact.
France and England are just going to be too strong in that area.

Wales were hugely strong in that area and where did it get them? A long way last.
We need a couple of seasons to catch up in that area but there’s still hope for beating the big guns.
We are very good at bending the line and turning half breaks into metres. If a team gets out of shape we can pounce.
England also thrash Wales on the scoreboard so it is still hard to tell if our strengths can beat theirs.
Key for us is avoiding France in the Semi.
France are very likely to go into the knockouts seeded 4th and if the top 4 seeds go through to the semis the top seed will play France.
We need to hold back on the scoreboard and let England take 1st seed on points diff. I think they are just ahead at the moment and they play SA while we play Scotland.Edit: forgot England didn’t get a BP so we will likely be seeded 1 anyway and England 2 or 3. Basically to win the whole thing we will have to beat France and England in the knockouts.
