Canada beat the Aussies 46-5.

They will play the Black Ferns in the first Semi Final in Bristol on Friday night.

Fuck, that was a long game to endless "injury" stoppages. The SA coach wasn't wrong when he said that they had a game plan that played to their strengths. Their 12 was the same size as their props.

Agree about Sarah Cox, but if you are defending all the time it is easy for refs to find penalties.

Nice to see the BFs know that they have to do the business AFTER the haka is over. Perhaps they could teach this to the boys....?

[NTA]

Predictably, Australia lose big to Canada.

Expecting France to pump Ireland and England to demolish Scotland. At that point the competition finally gets interesting

[NTA]

TMO delays Ireland temporarily. France with some basic errors. Don't like rain?

[sparky]

Ireland leading France 10-0 after 30 minutes.

Not sure I agree with the yellow card not being upgraded to red

[NTA]

I'd this a 13-point wind? I reckon France can make more of it

[NTA]

Ireland needed a converted try there. French are going to play better territory in the second half and win this I think

[sparky]

13-3 to Ireland after 53 minutes. Lashing it down with rain in Exeter.

[sparky]

Ireland must come away with points every time they get in the red zone.

France are going to come at them hard in the last twenty minutes.

If France put away the offloads they'll win this.

[sparky]

Valiant by Ireland so far, but I'm not sure they have the bench to pull this off.

France with good attacking ball at last.

[NTA]

Lot of high contact in this game. Ref needs to speak to both captains

[NTA]

Will be lucky not to see red. Maybe low force saves her

[sparky]

YC coming up.

[NTA]

And the try

She's distraught.

Conversion over

[sparky]

Momentum has shifted.

13-10 to Ireland with 20 to go.

[sparky]

France with their tails up.
