Yuck, that was far too easy.

Our winger in no-womens land

Damo

That was pretty ugly from us.

Could be a long night.

I think we were a little unlucky to not win a penalty at the breakdown there, but you can't it away from England, they look much better.

Good penalty milk there

Hopefully the ref keeps that up, England will be penalised off the park if so.

Jailbreak7

Woulda gone corner.

If they get more, they'll just leave the ruck and fan out. Their D line is pretty solid

nostrildamus

the grass behind our ruck looks very tempting for fallen English players. Taking long naps there.

We were building nicely but Cocksedge could’ve easily gone around her!

Better work from us. We don’t always have to throw the big cut out pass. Nice short passes will work against England.

A pet peeve.

Kickers taking shots outside their range.

I think the girls have shown they start a bit nervous then build into the game ,

I reckon a safety first approach is best until the nerves have calmed

Nah. Play the skill game in the right areas and knock the rust out.

Wicked clean out England!

Girls are bunched up like a bad league team

England looking the much stronger team so far.

Does the women's game not have the rule where the tackler has to let the tackled player place the ball???
