Why blow the whistle so late for that knock-on?

I'm not sure it was a knock on?

Cramp isn't a serious injury. Play on ref.

She didn't notice the knock on.

She was going to blow it, AR said no. I think the AR was correct.

looked like a French knock on to me

Why the fuck you go for 3 points when Holmes missed the conversion from a very similar spot when an attacking lineout made the most sense?

@nostrildamus pass was forward too...seems many games they are letting many 50-50 calls go

We are playing too much in our own end.

She's in for her kicking lol

am I right in thinking we should actually go more lateral, up the middle looks very tough?

We've got the speed to run around

Some dumb passes

@taniwharugby said in Black Ferns v France, RWC Semi Final:

Some dumb passes

And bad options.

we look a bit panicky. So do a few of the French but we only run at their big tough ones?

We don't like kicking when we should do we

In the side.

Cocksedge with another idiotic play from the dodgy PK.

@taniwharugby said in Black Ferns v France, RWC Semi Final:

Yeah, we are doing the reverse of what we should do.

Terrible from from Woodman had no idea what do , just waited for the defence and then a series of poor options

@Damo awful decisions by her

Do we think we are fitter than them? Not sure about that.

they don't like the French up in their faces but they aren't giving themselves space

Is Cockshedge retarded?

Oh oh looks like Obelix is down.

@antipodean she ain't smart that's for sure

She believes her own press

To be fair, it must be a tactic to take the quick taps. That is on Wayne Smith.

Anyway, soft penalty gives us a chance.

Pretty soft call I reckon

Quick tap is fine. Don't then kick it away aimlessly.

Also don't do it in their own 22m unless there is a clear opportunity.

A quick tap is one thing, aimlessly kicking the ball back to the French is another.

ok there's your territory now take out your cheese knife and cut through them like overblown camembert.

Great try!

Wòooooooooo

Fitzy!

Now make sure we bloody exit!

This is an awesome game ..that conversion ,,whew ..!

By the way Leti-l'iga is on for Holmes.

58 min in 22-17 NZ

NZ seem to playing with a lot more oomph-are France tiring?
