And she doesn't seem too smart either. Ref calls a scrum and she starts walking back ten metres. Ahhh....you're the TH.
She's gave away a ton of dumb penalties, and was average at the scrum the game she started
Yeah I noticed. Powerhouse ball in hand, and seems to make easy metres. But outside that she's a liability.
And another one, dumb as a brick
And another, and a card. We'll do better with her off

Bingo! The resulting line out, we steal and go back in their half

She encroached the line out just before she was carded, but not picked up

Scrappy 2nd half...shame as some of our play off set pieces has been good, some of the players in motion in the movements is excellent

A dump of replacements all at once, never goes well

That's the first mistake I've seen du Plessis make all tournament.
Second of the game
But I didn't see that one.

Hah, comes on the field and somehow manages to give away 2 penalties and get carded for non foul play.
She did same last week if I remember rightly Bones, looks to be trying to make sure she doesn't get picked again!

@Machpants actually, I just remembered there was close to 20k in the 2011 RWC in both games when Tonga played up here.
Hopefully we get a bigger crowd next week!

Yeah was sold out for the lions tho

Fair play to Scotland for not giving up. They were non existent in the first half (did they have a backrow?) but better in the 2nd.
Hard for any kiwis to genuinely impress against mediocre opposition. There are a few selection headaches for smith.
This smells like 2007: pool walkover with better opposition ahead.

This halfback looks better than Cocksedge
Bayler has the best pass of the three halfbacks followed by Marino-Tauhini. Unfortunately we know who is going to start.
I watched the game on poor mans TV so have just finished.
Another tough selection decision will be at lock. Roos played really well but I like what Ngan-Woo offers around the field as a distributor.

Nice position for Smith to have, not who to pick, but who to leave out!

Not really. Firstly we've got Wales again in the quarters so we're not losing to them. In addition every RWC is like that for the ferns, there is only ever 2 or 3 teams in it that count
