England have been so impressive this series. I totally underrated their prospects and probably overestimated the Ferns. I just love watching Housby, she is pure class.
It is hard to say the silver ferns aren’t like Langman, Folau or Kopua – they were once in a generation players who somehow came at the same time. The thing that does seem to be the case is the silver ferns defence isn’t scary like it used to be. Sterling, Wilson, Bruce, etc have the fear factor, their reputation precedes them. I don’t think the ferns have anyone in their lineup like that.
Agree a GA change up is needed for the SF and might help gel better with Nweke. While I am not anti-Toeva and I think her inclusion may be worth trying judging by the forum comments (I didn’t get to watch the ANZP this year), I don’t think her inclusion is a panacea.
