Black Ferns v USA

[Crucial]

The time spent together in this camp and the freedom they are playing with is reaping rewards. The level of play is a notch above what we saw in Aupiki

[taniwharugby]

@Stargazer some nice interplay, props running onto the ball and getting over-the-advantage line, some nice offloads

[Crucial]

How do you northerners put up with that rubbish weather!

[Crucial]

Smash and grab for that last try.

[Crucial]

Renee Holmes is having a great game.

[Stargazer]

Leilani Perese definitely shouldn't play against the stronger teams.

[Stargazer]

Perese again. Ughh.

[Stargazer]

Sylvia Brunt's first test try. Well done!

[Machpants]

Weather is pretty shit. It's amazing how little kicking there is in both games, considering the conditions

The yanks may be weak but I’m enjoying watching a Wayne Smith team coming together.
21-3 after 24minutes

Literally bumped into him in the concourse, life goal highlight lol

BF's scrum in the first half was up and down (more down than up) but the BF's are getting monstered at scrum in the 2nd half. It's like they've subbed on Lomax and Numia

[Crucial]

Perese needs to be pulled before she loses all confidence.

[Toddy]

Number 8 has feet for hands though she's been good at the back of a back-peddling scrum.

[Crucial]

Who needs a scrum?

That’s LMT. MMT’s little sis.

Another ex Hastings kid for @Nepia to claim.

[Stargazer]

Hat-trick!

Hungus!

At least this time it worked

[Stargazer]

Arihiana Marino-Tauhinu and Hazel Tupic should be the starting halves in the big games.

Not going to happen with the captaincy selection and the wraps they have been giving her. Best might be for Tubic to play 12 but swap into first receiver often

Good thing is that we probably have our 8,9,10,12
