Just watched the NZ/England game. That was a really good game. The defence of Jury, Karaka and Burger is our best lineup. I am glad Heffernan was replaced, as she was too loose on defence. Tayla Earle came on brilliantly. She has made a case for herself. Soft hands and some poor passing in the attack cost us the game. However I was still happy with the way we played. Amorangi did some great things, and she has so much room for growth. I hope she builds on this and really stamps her name in the Ferns team.
Personally I don’t think there’s any room for MRB.
I don’t understand people calling for Karaka to go :scratch: I don’t like it when they start her at GK. She’s better when she starts at GD and then slides to GK.
I didn’t realise how bad Burger is at bringing the ball down court. A lot of the times she doesn’t fully turn, and cuts off vision for herself.
All in all, I am happy with this team. I’m still calling for Toeava to be in there.
*During the Uganda game, the commentators were saying Liana Leota’s name is down on the list for the next SF coach. They did say that, that list is like 10 long. Wonder if she could be the black horse in the race? I wouldn’t be against it. I’d be happy with YMD or Bloxham too.
