How the fuck does Miller get injured? There needs to be an inquiry.

[pourfasse]

at the beginning of the second half againt SA. She left after Mc Gee try.

Not good about Miller. Back row is one area NZ have decent depth in though. It will be a tough slog against what is a formidable Canadian pack.

On the positive front, Brunt and Setefano are fit, so midfield isn't an issue.

[Bones]

@stodders plus Risi back will add a lot more fluidity.

Absurd.

Fark, can we win without our x factor player at 7??

JM is MJ backwards.

[kidcalder]

Yeah Miller is a loss but a very good tough loose forward trio that won't let them down...just the x-factor Miller has but the backs have enough to get us across I believe

She certainly has the running game to rival the Ice Man. I think she is a massive loss because she is so good at her linking play with the backs. I don’t think we have anyone else in the squad like that.

[Bovidae]

Miller has yet to play against any of the top tier teams so that would have been interesting in itself. I expect the BFs will have to commit more players to the breakdown as Canada like to compete.

[Jailbreak7]

@Bovidae Yep and Canada are quick to pounce on the loose ball, BFs will have to be at their best there...
Be Quick or be Dead....

[Bones]

Well, Canada have the best player in the world at lock. Think we're done for.

[Bones]

Holy fuck, that is disgusting reffing. Setting the bar on the ground from the offset.

[Victor Meldrew]

Fuck me, we have that grating, useless Irish comments lady again.

[Bones]

And then calls advantage over within two seconds of Canada shelling it, not even bothering to see if an advantage will play out with loose ball.

[sparky]

Nervy start from the Black Ferns.

[Yeetyaah]

And the Canada front row down on their knees but not called

[Victor Meldrew]

"That Black Fern is a boulder with biceps"

Fuck me.

[Jailbreak7]

Fark me that was too easy!! BFs just waved her in
