    USA steal it at the death.

    I have to say the Women's 7s game is a good sport to watch. Kind of like hard netball. The players use very good positioning and passing to break open defences. Very little smash and bash just for the sake of it. Some excellent skill and speed on show.

    Woodman in.

    NZ had to work hard for that. France are rushing really hard in defence and making us play on the back foot. Much of the defence is offside but ref is lenient.

    7-0

    Blyde in now. NZ having to play much differently than they did against SA. Having to really mix up options and use kicks behind the defence.

    14-0 at HT

    A simple VPN to a UK address should work on the WR site

    @crucial I'm watching on a PC. Have tried several geo-unblockers but they slow things down so much. If anyone has recommendations for a good geo-unblocker, I'm interested!

    Final score 28-7

    They had to work harder for that, and try different things, so good signs

    @crucial Was surprised about Goss' speed! Almost made it to the try line herself.

    Had to keep changing her line because the French girl had extra speed. Did well to get over the line.

    The last Black Ferns game will be against the USA at 4.43am NZT, usually a strong opponent. Will watch if I happen to be awake.

    Good 45 - 14 win of the Kiwi women over the USA. Black Ferns try scorers: Blyde, Woodman (2x), Tui, Goss and McAlister.
    Here are all the results from their pool:

    WTF! Sky is still not broadcasting the women's games. The BF7s are now playing their Cup QF v USA. I have a stream. DM if you want the link.
