Silver Ferns lose 55-60. I'm really glad they didn't get up. They didn't deserve a medal.
I swear Bailey Mes must have incriminating pics of someone. Why the fuck she keeps making it into the starting line up I don't know. Actually felt sorry for Folau, she was having to work three times as hard, and try and take as many shots as she could which is ridiculous for a GA. Your GS should be your gun.
Was wondering why they insisted on Folau throwing in from the baseline when she is the better shooter except based on the bibs they were wearing.

Not a violent person but Janine Southby has a beet punchable face
Could see how gutted Katrina Grant was, the coach looked more annoyed at the questions (the questions were more then justified)Any link?

@Mokey from Stuff:
With starting goal shoot Te Paea Selby-Rickit bedridden with a virus, New Zealand started Bailey Mes in her place. Mes again struggled with her shooting and was subbed in the third quarter for Ameliaranne Ekenasio.
Explains half of why she was starting

Should have brought Irene Van Dyk out of the carbon freeze block

@booboo Doesn't explain why Mes is in the team though. A GS who can't shoot? That is insane. Folau deserves credit considering every quarter she and Mes were on, she had to carry the entire load. I mean Mes wasn't netting from anywhere, and that is unforgivable. A GA's job is to link between the midcourt and circle, to feed the ball to the GS and to be a back up for rebounds. They should never be asked to do all that PLUS shoot all the goals.

@virgil Did they ask her if she was resigning?
If she said no, you could follow up with an, "Ah, waiting to be sacked then, eh?"
Said she wasn’t making any calls re her future etc
Overall was pretty flippant over the questions, short without really answering them -
@mokey They did ask the question apparently. She's given it the "corporate" treatment.
"At this stage, I don't make decisions in the heat of the battle - we've all got to go home and have a look. There's lot of reasons for the situation we're in and we've all got to have a good look at it, take ownership of whatever learnings going forward."
