    I must admit to yelling at the screen when they took the tap instead of kicking for touch and milking the clock. That choice almost cost them the game.

      The ref helped the poms with their mauls. If we can combat it they will have to think of something else to do. England are so limited. Run it up a couple of times and kick it back to us

          I thought that a couple of moments of madness from Demant was going to cost the BFs.

          A great game to watch, and that's what happens when you challenge a 5 m lineout.

          Well done girls. Fitzpatrick remains the good luck charm.

            Demant POTM? Really? Did Black 13 have to leave early or something?

            13 for me as well, that try from her dummy was out of this world.

            (I couldn't spell her surname. "Fluhler" 🙂 )

            Just remember "Mein" in front and the rest will flow.

              England captain thinks they left no stone unturned.

              Good news then, they don't think that rugby can be played any other way than to just maul.

                Running it up to close to the ruck almost cost us too. Should have gone wide

                  They do need to look at mauls. Don't mind a contrast of styles at all but a maul every 5 minutes? Also seems an adjudicational lottery to me and not a fair contest of the ball.

                  Yep I agree.

                  The issue isn't the idea of the mauls, its that the laws need tweaking/better enforcement.

                  The movement to the side where the mall spins, the players break their bind and change the point of attack is the one they should stop.

                    They haven’t always been so forward dominant in their play, it’s just that in the last couple of years it has been so damn successful.

                      That, but the whole of this RWC the refs were consistently ignoring the obstruction; the receiver continually landed and passed it straight back to the ripper prior to defensive contact. I cannot think of one maul formation from the lineout that I would have adjuged legal.

                                    Just didn't have the range. From the tee or hand

                                    Range wasn't the problem. Direction was.

                                    A couple of kicks dropped just under the posts. Or that's how it looked from up here

                                    Might have been more comfortable for the Black Ferns had they made their conversions. How many points did they leave out there?

                                    4 or 5 missed kicks?

                                    Only one was short, the other misses were just outside the post.

                                      Some absolute shocking decisions in that game from ref and players but the biggest stupid decision is player of the match to Demant.

                                      Stacey Fluhler deserved that, even blind Freddy would have picked Stacey!

                                      It was Stacey and daylight second.

                                      WHAT?!?!? No way they picked Demant. That has to be fake news.

                                          One shot from just out of the 22 on the angle didn’t even make the goal line.
