Black Ferns v France, RWC Semi Final

In the side.

Cocksedge with another idiotic play from the dodgy PK.

We don't like kicking when we should do we

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

How the fark is Cocksedge still on

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

Are they experts in slowing down the game? We shall see!

Krystal Murray ..outrageous offload

How good was that ball from Murray

I don't think Cocksedge has been half as bad as some are saying. She mixes some bad decisions with some really good stuff.

yup I think the French forwards are tiring

@Stargazer she has been pretty good but some awful decisions

We need to chill out on the quick taps, that would have been a 5m lineout and likely try

@taniwharugby Yeah, that's what I said.

Credit to her that was a good decision to tap.

@Damo well that's all she's done so one had to be good...

No way we would've kicked it to 5m, we normally make about 10

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

bad decisions

Bad is a huge understatement. We all know that anyone who taps a penalty and kicks immediately should be shot. She has the audacity to do it twice.

I can't see what she brings as a positive that any other half couldn't.

Come on girls; put that foot a little firmer on that French throat!!
