That Blues reserve 9 was very good.
She’s awesome. Apparently been earmarked since school. Definitely deserves a BF contract. I actually think both Puckett and Awa deserve the call up. I don’t think AMT (the incumbent) has been at all impressive in the backend of the season. Hohaia should be the incumbent.

A couple of the Chiefs ladies will have unhappy memories of that last 20 minutes for a long time...
Chelsea Semple’s BF career is pretty much over (or should be) after that howler. In the pouring rain, it should’ve been kicked to Ngaruawahia. They were still ahead at that point.
Reese Anderson the newbie has had a terrible two weeks. Vahaakolo should never have been allowed to run around her for that try.
Second year in a row that the Chiefs snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. The pressure of finals footy.

Vahaakolo's try reminded me a bit of David Campese running right around the concrete-footed 1991 All Blacks backline.
Semple's was the stuff nightmares are made of, and at the worst possible time. Fall over, recover, don't kick, draw the two defenders towards you and don't pass, and then lose the ball in contact...

She could have simply put the ball down and taken a goal line drop out. Would have been a far better option than what she did

Could have grounded the ball, kicked the ball, or passed the ball - basically anything other than what she did
