I was there, it was a great evening. No doubt I’m wearing blue glasses, but the skills and game plan on display from the Tahs was excellent. They can really capitalise on a wide break. And very interesting to see Waiaria Ellis deployed as the playmaker when she came on, with McKenzie moving to 12, often as a second playmaker on the other side to Ellis. A 16 year-old running the backline! Ridiculous talent coming through there.

While I didn't get to see the semifinal, the same skills were on show against the Reds in the last round. They were a class above that day too.
My reservation about the Australian team that will be selected from these teams is not that they don't have the skills but that they don't get enough games against the NHW teams. Those teams are the powerhouse teams in the world, but distance and money precludes us from playing them regularly and adapting our play to the next level.
