Black Ferns v Canada

[Stargazer]

Pressure BFs and the Canadian player drops the ball. NZ scrum in Canada's half.

[Stargazer]

Ah bugger, that attack looked good, but the BFs can't finish it.

I'm starting to think that Ayesha Leti-I’iga would be a better centre than wing, btw. Maybe put a faster player on the left wing.

100% Agree

[Stargazer]

Robins-Reti slipped on the field, and still down. Hopefully not a bad injury. She looked good at the back.

Change of BFs halfbacks.

[Stargazer]

She's staying on the field for now.

[Stargazer]

BFs going for a line-out on Canada's 5m.

[antipodean]

That's a well worked set piece try.

[Stargazer]

Yes, great try to Maia Roos. Amy Rule came close, Roos finished it.

16 - 0 BFs

[Stargazer]

Tubic and Cocksedge both off the field, so Demant with the kicking duties. She misses.

Sub: Renee Wickliffe replaces Robins-Reti. Good decision. No point risking it.

[Stargazer]

The whole bench is on the field now.

[Stargazer]

Oh, I forgot Chelsea Bremner , who's now coming on for Ngan-Woo.

[Stargazer]

Some players are a bit too keen, and therefore making mistakes.

[Stargazer]

Good to see our defence tested a bit, now.

BFs doing a good job thus far; the Canadians gain few metres.

[Stargazer]

Maia Roos down. Injured or cramp?

[Stargazer]

She is limping off the field. Looks like her ankle.

Edit: I shouldn't listen to the commentators. They now think she's still on the field.

[Stargazer]

Ferns have turned the ball over, but Canadians knock on.

[Stargazer]

Du Plessis having cramp again.

[Stargazer]

What did the former BF/commentator say? Pickle juice (against cramp)? What the heck is that?

Edit: just googled it. It actually exists!

[Stargazer]

Holy moly what a run from Ayesha Leti-I’iga! Stopped just before the try line.

Try Chelsea Bremner.

[Stargazer]

Demant converts the try.

BFs lead 23 - 0. Five minutes to go.
