Womens RWC 2025

Bones

Brazier is more impotent and pointless now than she was a decade ago. She really screams "amateur era".

Victor Meldrew

Classic maul try.

sparky

Classic maul try.

Great execution but too easy.

A shame. Spain had defended valiantly up to that point.

Bones

@Bones Because some people are colour blind apparently and can't tell the difference between Black and Red.

Woke tosh.

My cousin's best friend's mother's wife is colourblind and a big fan of Ireland in this match.

sparky

Big injury to Olsen-Baker.

That could be it for her tournament.

Bones

Big injury to one of the BFs. Olsen-Baker?

Looks like she could do with some green whistle at least, geez

Victor Meldrew

BFs down to 14 - used up all their subs.

Bones

This Spain team will be affected by cramp as they've run so much in this game. In mildly warm weather. Played in Europe.

Of course the BFs don't get a mention for not going down for cramp as they are immune.

sparky

Leti-Inga scores a double.

Bones

Who is no 18 for NZ and what relation are they to Lowe/Itoje?

sparky

Nice break by Holmes to set up Portia Woodman for RWC try number 21.

Bones

Holmes just keeps on keeping on. Marry me

sparky

47-3. Spanish team look out on their feet.

sparky

NZ down to 13. Leta-Inga has walked off.

sparky

Apparently playing against only 13 makes it easier for Spain.

This commentary team are full of sharp insights.

sparky

"The Spanish team and their fans have added to this occasion."

Without them it would an unopposed training run and not a rugby match I suppose.

Bones

"Brazier, kicks deep"

The ball bounces just outside the intersection of the 40m and touch lines.

sparky

Good work by the NZ heavies to suck in defenders and Setefano scores.

50 up.

sparky

Five minutes left. Credit to the crowd for not heading to the car park yet. I would.

sparky

Great counter rucking by the Spanish half back. Saved a near certain try.
