I think a couple of them bottled it up against the bigger Kiwi side. They played far too far from the defensive line. They have an exciting back line, but I don't think they are well coached from Richards - leaving out some key players from the squad

Whenever I have seen a WSL game there has hardly been any wrestling after contact and we didn't know how to deal with it.
The passing from hooker was really poor, Yorks number 9 must be injured or something as she's easily the best 9 I've seen in the WSL.

I thought England were well beaten but the second rower who played at 12 was excellent with some great cover tackling and strong running. The half backs didn't really show though and how Jodie Cunningham gets picked is beyond me I am sorry to say.

Apparently there's a couple of players that don't see eye to eye with Richards , Sinead Peach is one of them .

That wheelchair final was superb. Clutch play from the England captain to win it at the end.

Australia on another level.
Any chance we can get Liam Martin for our 2nd row.

No quota spaces left, otherwise I'd happily take him

Yeah I think we’d need more than one out to get him.
The Aussie player’s fitness is incredible,
Tedesco after match interview, looked like he’d hardly broke sweat.
