2018 Black Ferns

Entertaining first half. There's not much between both teams, except that dominant French scrum.
IMO the third French try should have been disallowed as the French left wing clearly blocked Winiata, preventing her from tackling the try scorer.
The French public is annoying as ever, booing every excellent tackle from the Ferns, as if it was foul play (which it wasn't).
Hope the Ferns can fix that scrum like last week.
Blackwell and Waaka the best players for NZ.
Half time: France 19 - 14 New Zealand

It's over. The French women beat the Black Ferns for the first time ever. A deserved win, too.
France 30 - 27 New Zealand.
Bugger.
Damn, at least the Maori won today!

I've just watched a replay of the game. France were deserved winners and scored some very good tries, particularly the one from their no.8 out wide.
Black Ferns need to find some better props, hopefully Toka Natua is back next year. The inside back combo didn't work either. Cottrell didn't impress me.
