@nta Geez
Her hand initially was, but she stepped back and took her hand off the ground.

NZ in a rugby final against France, she’ll be sweet as cuz…

With Blyde not 100% NZ has lost their x-factor out wide. Woodman will need to step up in the final because even though she scored that try our speedsters didn't have the confidence to beat their opponents on the outside. France look to have some size so I expect they will be in the faces of the BF7s, and NZ will need to be more composed than they were against Fiji.

And a bit of redemption for Rio too.

@act-crusader I only want to see tears of joy.

I really hope that the refs understand how teams are playing them on their pendantic insistence about taking taps on the mark.
It has turned into a tactic to give away a penalty to reset the defence while the ref takes forever to communicate a mark or wants it within a few centimetres.
I guess that is why we are seeing scrums taken and lineouts only 5 metres up field. At least you get a restart with room -
@crucial Moreover, sometimes they're setting the mark behind the ruck where it occurred.
I would have thought it is easier to use the "coffee table" approach and be more lenient on the 10m in order to keep the game moving.
I mean, they've been pretty fucking lenient on 10m as it is...

Very lenient on the 10 but I agree that maybe “within a metre” arc behind the exact point wouldn’t go amiss and would make it less likely that defenders don’t do a Crusaders

I don't understand why some of you guys say that Tui f*cked that up. It was a perfect tackle from the Fijian player. Give her some credit!
Maybe Tui is too young to remember George Gregan on Goldie.... Far be it for me to critique her, but if Tui had switched the ball to carry in the other hand she would have scored that easy....
