Hopefully the ref keeps that up, England will be penalised off the park if so.

[Jailbreak7]

Woulda gone corner.

If they get more, they'll just leave the ruck and fan out. Their D line is pretty solid

[nostrildamus]

the grass behind our ruck looks very tempting for fallen English players. Taking long naps there.

Good penalty milk there

We were building nicely but Cocksedge could’ve easily gone around her!

Better work from us. We don’t always have to throw the big cut out pass. Nice short passes will work against England.

A pet peeve.

Kickers taking shots outside their range.

I think the girls have shown they start a bit nervous then build into the game ,

I reckon a safety first approach is best until the nerves have calmed

Nah. Play the skill game in the right areas and knock the rust out.

[voodoo]

Wicked clean out England!

Girls are bunched up like a bad league team

[sparky]

England looking the much stronger team so far.

[voodoo]

Does the women's game not have the rule where the tackler has to let the tackled player place the ball???

[Bones]

Fucken hell, any BF approaching the breakdown having to hurdle one or two roses to get there, but she penalised us going off our feet while hurdling.

[Damo]

Are we banking on being fitter than England? Looks like we are trying to run them ragged.

[KiwiMurph]

We look threatening which is a good sign

[nostrildamus]

Just feels we are playing to their strengths.

[His Bobness]

England going off their feet at every ruck and we get pinged??

That works when the defence is fanned out - opens up the offload game at the risk of leaving you vulnerable to counterattack

[Jailbreak7]

There is space out wide. Portia had the ball in her hands more in the first 10 mins than in the whole match last week
