That’s fucking bullshit from the ref 35m back for the penalty, no advantage

But who cares? World Rugby needs to scrap 3rd/4th playoffs and let the losing Semi Finalists fly home early.

Final under way. Nice early attack by Canada. 
- 
							
							
							
							
English forwards are huge. And they monster the first scrum. 
- 
							
							
							
							
England mess up a lineup, great work by Canada. And it's the first try. England 0 Canada 5 The cabbage patch is silent. 
- 
							
							
							
							
Not quite with the conversion. What a start for the brave underdogs! 
- 
							
							
							
							
Terrible Canadian defence and the English fullback waltzes through. 
- 
							
							
							
							
Kick over. England 7 Canada 5. 
- 
							
							
							
							
There was an England attacking advantage there. Unlike the ref for the Semi Final, Hollie Davidson is prepared to penalise the Canadians.

@sparky said in Womens RWC 2025: Terrible Canadian defence and the English fullback waltzes through. Or alternatively she leaves them standing like statues

Illegal Canadian steal, not realising. A penalty to England the right call. Why didn't we have this ref for the Semi Final? Sigh! 
- 
							
							
							
							
Canada looking to open it up, but handling errors letting them down. England are more patient and will slowly turn the screw I suspect. 
- 
							
							
							
							
England's line speed in defence and dominant scrum and Hollie Davidson's rigorous officiating is putting Canada under much more pressure than last week. 
- 
							
							
							
							
5 metre line out to England. Drive. England have their second try. Cocaine scored. 12-7 to the hosts. 
- 
							
							
							
							
Conversion over. 14-5. The hosts are going to win this at a canter.
