    One thing I have noticed that seems to be the same in the NZ women's and men's teams is that we have no where near the level of communication with the ref - no leadership in the refs ear asking the questions - we let other teams create the "narrative" unchallenged

    That long injury break in the first half, was it the Canada captain harping at the ref the whole time?

      Could say we are missing Miller but not sure she could do much here.

        She'd certainly make a better fist of the linking plays out wide that we've seen shelled half a dozen times.

          She might have conjured a try in there but Canada are just all round better.

            I'd venture the breakdown would be looking more even and likely a cover tackle or two would have been made.....but still BFs looking very much 2nd best.

            Even if we miraculously get through this game ... simply can't see them competing with the Poms.. let alone with the home crowd willing them on.

                      Ripped the ball out one on one. Their forward play is impressive, excellent recycling

                              Canada don't need the help, but the ref is helping them.

                              Brutal.

                                That's the ball game.

                                  Why is a prop covering wing on defence???? What the fuck is this defensive system.

                                    29-7. It's going to be a long second half.

                                      Do they play a 3rd 4th game?

                                          Has there ever been a big game when only one side has won penalties?
