Aussie women are so good at catch and pass. It may sound simple and should be ingrained into rugby players but watch aussie 15’s men rugby and we are shite. Great to watch.

Yeah, I’m saying that though I was really impressed with some of the Aussie Mens passing today as well, from some players I wouldn’t normally expect to have good long passes either

Ben has played BBL for the past 5 years; previously at the Sixers. I believe he has a brother who also plays First Grade cricket.

Didn’t realise. Looks like his old man.

Is Caslick out after she got thumped in the head - that might change the gameplan.

Day 1 highlights:

Edit: organisers are claiming an attendance of 17K yesterday & that the Brian Perry Stand (the side they broadcast from) is sold out today. Gotta say I'm sceptical.

Currently playing in QF so must be OK.

Australia 38-0 Great Britain. Same scoreline as Cape Town.

Aussies yet to concede a second-half point.

Scary.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Given the main field seats 25,000 that would mean a lot went out the back to watch women's games.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Ireland 24-7 France
