Congrats to the roses on taking out the series.
Can’t call them chokers now in a close game… they need Housby there though. If she’d played the whole game the margin would have been greater. Neil turned the ball over SO many times just in one quarter. I think Cardwell will be warming the bench now with Tchine there and Glasgow returning when she recovers.
How long are we going to put up with Taurua? What’s her Win-loss record against the other big four countries? Pretty ugly I’d say.
Even with Akle there Taurua’s subs were all wrong. Gordon going off. Wilson coming on at GA, putting Mikaere on to play bully ball, all resulted in predictable outcomes. Must be jobs for the girls with these selection processes…
How can you lose with Nweke there? Toeava and her are unstoppable in the nz league. Heck I’d even put in Earle who feeds Nweke very well.
Replace Wilson with Martina Salmon. Was Salmon also omitted on Taurus’s fitness criteria. CRIKEY!
Next game is going to be decided on whether they play Housby the whole game. I would if I were
Thirlby. Send NNZ a message.
Are Taurua and Wylie’a contracts subject to KPI’s. Doesn’t appear to be so.
