    Oh that's a mistake getting back to your feet. Williams once again saves us with direct running.

    We seem to be avoiding ruck or contact at all times - trying to run the bigger Yanks around?

    @nta they certainly look knackered, both sides, but Oz looking a bit livelier

    Jeez that ruck straight after the lineout looked like Yanks going straight off their feet. Not a lot of consistency on this.

    The other bugbear I've got with the refs: "not releasing" penalties given against the ball carrier when the defender is not even trying to lift. We were given very strict instructions on this at the start of the season.

    I understand 7s is a little different but the "grabbing it on your elbows" isn't good enough IMHO

    Great length of the field try.

    12 - 0 OZ

    It's looking hard.

    Really little offloading in the woman's game, bit bizarre.

    USA finally don't shoot themselves in the foot 12-7

    Oh oh try USA. The Americans look powerful, but slow, but the Aussies couldn't stop this try.

    12 - 7 Oz

    USA need to learn how to offload.
    They keep getting the ball through the line with a support player but the carrier just takes the tackle

    Aussie defence a bit scattered there. Need to hold the ball.

    Good power game from the Yanks - three tackles broken up the middle and then out and back

    I've seen plenty of offloading. Depends on the team.
