Game plan looks to be run England ragged and build a healthy lead early

Dumb from NZ 10
Tried to run it out of her 22 and coughs the ball up in the tackle

England lucky to regain possession from a poor 5m line out

Like their male counterparts NZ trying to play too much rugby inside their own 22 and then gifting possession to England
