Don’t think we were winning that without the red card. Nevertheless well done. Fluhler is fantastic. DC was a great 10 but he is a shît goal kicking coach. We need to learn how to defend a maul.
Women can barely kick 30ms. He'd need a doctorate in bionics to improve their kicking.

Are they drop kicking for goal?

Sorry to read you didn’t get to watch the final. It was a great game. Distance wasn’t the problem, accuracy was.

@Billy-Tell Yep. The commentators said that Holmes was nailing her kicks at goal from 50m during warm-up. I think she missed so many kicks because of the pressure; not because the kicks were too hard.

Most of the kicks (except one duff one) were close. Minor technical problem that was creating a late hook to the left.
If you were at practice and lining them up one after another you’d fix it quickly but you don’t get that luxury in a game. -

I just think she didn’t have the experience to work through a fix on the spot.

BTW, England only converted 20 of their 43 tries. NZ were 21/44.

Bloody tough when you're in it. I guess she could get pointers at half time but it's difficult to make changes on the fly

Not often, but that's just coaching and practice.
Kick offs no problem

Just had a quick squizz back at the end of the game again.
And I'm not sure if it has been raised, but fuck it was karma for slowing the game down.
You know those teams that take an injury break to rest their oversized pack?
If England hadn't taken a breather and just formed and threw that lineout the TMO would never have looked at Demant not touching that kick that went out in the full, and Leti-i'iga wouldn't have scored.
Karma suckers.
