As a Maori/Kiwi man myself, I have to say that this was a great game but England was definitely the more consistently stronger team. Honestly, if that red card hadn't come out and they had a full team the entirety of the match, they would've won.

This game was absolutely fantastic and the Ferns had some amazing plays that net them the win.

We've just gotta be proud of them. Even playing with 14 they were excellent and was close enough that it could've gone either way.

Nobody can take anything away from the Black Ferns. Some of those tries were magic and ultimately you can only play the game in front of you.

All in all, I feel for the England team but what a fantastic showcase for women's rugby.

Not just women's rugby, but rugby totally! So much spirit and passion, some great plays on both sides and a couple fumbles here and there to remind us that even though they're absolute machines, they're still human. Just an absolutely brilliant game all around and a fantastic end to the World Cup!
