Kalounivale has not had a good start to the game.

Made up for it. Good try!

Good set piece try from the lineout, but clearly none of the Aussie girls were interested in tackling her.

I haven't seen that in international rugby since Tuigamala. Players actually not even bothering and stepping out of the way.

Aussie getting absolutely monstered, yet still decide to run it out of the 5m. Facepalm.

[Stag]

A ridiculous amount of advantage being played for knock ons. Making a slow game even slower.

[KiwiMurph]

Except for the halfback the BFs playing well

[Steven Harris]

Brunt looks the best player on the paddock

[antipodean]

24 mins in and another converted try to the Black Ferns. Given how the Ferns have overcome the early nerves, this could get ugly.

[Stargazer]

[Stag]

@KiwiMurph about a dozen knock ons in the first quarter is pretty rusty:

[KiwiMurph]

@Stag plus her kick out on the full

[Steven Harris]

Not a good 30s for Dallinger ,Turns the ball over and then gets Demanted

[Stag]

@KiwiMurph the class is there but the catching and passing has been very average so far from the ferns. Some of the defence from the Wallaroos has been borderline embarrassing.

[Stargazer]

Considering SR Aupiki finished on 25 March, it's not surprising some mistakes are made. Overall, I think the Ferns are playing reasonably well.

Nice third try.

[KiwiMurph]

A 12 with sweet feet is such a joy to watch

[Stargazer]

Holy moly, that was awesome.

Oh wait ...

[KiwiMurph]

What a try!

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph Great passing, well-placed kick from Paul and following try.

[Machpants]

Well, the Wallaroos certainly appear to be chipping away at the BFs...

[Stargazer]

HT: Wallaroos 0 - 26 Black Ferns

[Bones]

Is the Aussie flyhalf that's getting smoked every touch, the turncoat kiwi?

[Stargazer]

@Bones Haha, yes.
