SportsTranscript
00:00All gathered by the black ferns youngster in my joseph daughter of jamie joseph who
00:07If you're a regular follower of rugby union will know he's a former all-black also played for japan as the ball is just lost there
00:13by the black ferns
00:15Jamie joseph he also uh coached japan at the 2019 world cup. So she comes from good stock
00:22As a englander just gifted a gorgeous run position inside of the black ferns 22
00:28Yeah, it's not how the black ferns will have wanted to start the second half
00:31You know
00:31They need to get some points on that board and just overplay in that in that 22. I think let's go
00:37Sometimes you just need to get out
00:40Get good possession get good territory and build from there
00:46You can see there's a change there for new zealand in their front row
00:50amy rule is now on the field
00:53tanya colivale
00:55Has taken a seat. Remember the red rose is currently playing with 14 at the moment. So we all cross
01:01Vice captain for the red rose is still in the bin until around 49 minutes
01:05Matthew's away with the ball to hurt scarrett still going
01:12Hunt support from feyernati
01:17Wonderful pushback
01:22Still england ball
01:25england
01:27carlson
01:31Oh hunt the little snake. Oh, did she get it now?
01:35The referee's given it but they might check it
01:40The music's going hunt seems confident. She's running back
01:46There is no request for a replay
01:55Everyone is still holding their breath around the stadium. The try has been given on the big screen. This was the moment
02:03Yeah, we just it's a great loss. Yeah tries given isn't it? I don't think it's anything to
02:07To look at from upstairs there. It's a good decision by moe. Natasha hunt there
02:14That angle is just that's fine. Amy. No clear separation
02:20And aitchinson slots the extras
02:23and the blackburns
02:25They would have wanted to come out so strong in this second half having the extra women on the field and the red roses
02:30Just nick one. Uh, yeah, and it's just what happens when you don't exit your 22
02:34Natasha hunt really smart around the fringes a lot of the new zealand forwards working hard to get opposite them england forwards
02:41And a carbon copy of lucy parker from next week just just takes a little space snipes over. It's really smart nine play
02:50Rene holmes with the restart
02:53We'll call a mark again. Yes, she will
02:58Oh
02:59This law is going to get a little bit getting used to it's going to be tried over the next season
03:05The thing that I think is really interesting. Look she's calling the mark
03:07She's using that knowledge of the game, but it isn't helping england. Everybody looks a little bit underprepared for it
03:12You've got people in front
03:14Holly aitchinson in that instance didn't look prepared and for me I think if you're going to use these you've got to have everybody
03:20On the same wavelength to make sure it's an advantage to your side
03:31Bruce goes in the air. No contest is significant as well
03:37Another one of the law rules that's coming if it's not contested doesn't matter if it's not straight as we're playing advantage now to the red
03:44roses
03:46So
03:49Hunt burn
03:53Yeah, good turnover for no advantage not fun
03:57And the roses will get their scrum once again as they come and get ready to pack back down bremner
04:03You can just see there on your screen, but we've got a woman on the field who's down at the moment on the far side
04:10You can just see there. It's mckenzie carson
04:13Yeah, carson created quite a little bit of a stir not a lot
04:17But uh when she made her england debut because she did have her three caps for canada
04:23But she has changed allegiance now winning her 17th
04:28cap today for the red roses
04:32Continues to stalk the touchline. She's got a way to go before she get back on
04:37Great
04:38Just watch this break here. Is it from first half? It's great
04:42Great friend and this is zoe's yellow card, isn't it? Actually just high contact because it's a really easy
04:48Yellow card to be given there. No malice. Not malicious. Just hide a bit clumsy
04:53If anyone is wondering why zoe or crop also has a black eye
04:57That was a given to her by her captain marley packard training on thursday
05:04And hence all the strapping around her forehead as well. All the best ones always given by a teammate. I'm generally marley packard
05:12I've had one of those as well. She wasn't my captain at the time a black eye for marley
05:19Right then
05:20We're ready to get back underway as the crowd continues to enjoy a bit of spice girls around the field
05:27Red roses get ready to pack down. There is marley packard
05:33When are we going to be seeing some of those bench players making an appearance quite a formidable bench it is as well for the
05:39red roses
05:42Yes
05:44No stability from black tight head
05:47Another gimme them for the roses big pass out wide killed done
05:52Hacks it on
05:54Having to track back that is king, but it's an overcooked kick. Will it go the whole way? No, it won't
06:03I mean interesting decision by king
06:08Play on nothing clear
06:10Release what
06:12It was definitely the red roses. He took the ball into that dead ball area
06:16So she could have touched it down for the goal line drop out and eventually get the penalty. So be pleased with that
06:21You started these decisions fascinate me because i'm always wondering what are you thinking there?
06:26Because that's a big risk, isn't it?
06:27You're running into a big organized white wall. Like you say put it down take the drop out relieve pressure
06:40Well homes sends it towards this near side of the field
06:49And it will be a restart then for the black fans
06:56Georgia ponsonby again
06:58a world cup winner
07:00With the black ferns two years ago gives it to ruse
07:04king
07:05right boot
07:08Dow she had electric moments in the first half. Can she repeat she was next to me
07:14Very confident on the ball playing advantage. Can you keep them off early? It's in the middle there
07:20Okay
07:22A bit of a pickle that alex matthews got into there and no advantage
07:29They're gonna bring it back for a roses penalty nine always in front advancing
07:34Hi
07:36Okay
07:38Thank you, right zoe allcroft is released back onto the field so it's not been too bad a period without her
07:46Red rose is still up still scoring tries despite being a woman down
07:50And a nice opportunity for her to come back on as they get the line out just outside the black ferns line
07:57Very good kick there from holly atrison for england. Just a meter short of that five meters
08:04So
08:11You know the script, you know what's coming atkin davis gets the ball in nice towards the middle there
08:17Taken by matthews. What have the black ferns got to try and stop this?
08:24Wanting to use it now and the black ferns have done really well they're heard so flat to the line there tatiana heard
08:30Oh
08:32They spun around to try and create numbers on the left hand side there
08:37Through went old croft keen to make up for lost time
08:42Atkin davis in there as well. Is there space out there killed dunk can't get the last pass away
08:50Back inside black ferns defending for everything they need to stop the leaks
08:57Yep
08:58Carson i'll have to stop if it goes there
09:01Three black ferns in there stopping that red rose's attack atkin davis
09:08Time off we're getting too close to the injured player
09:12Okay injured player down in the field, so it will still be a red roses ball
09:15That's just a time stop there
09:17But they're having to commit a lot of women there in the contact to stop all of this red rose's momentum
09:24They really are and I think because the physicality
09:27Of the rose red roses and how they're carrying it make it take a one two three
09:32Black ferns to stop them because they don't want to let england get momentum as soon as they get momentum
09:38Really really hard
09:48Okay, lots of chat going on there between marley packet
09:52Hia team and referee and I think they're saying this is an hia moment
10:00So it's a georgia ponsonby who's taken the contact there and he's going to go and have a check so coming on in her place
10:06Is atlanta lola here?
10:09As we quickly check in with jenny drummond
10:11Yeah
10:19I'm now alongside sarah hunter sarah. The scoreboard is looking quite nice right now from a red roses perspective
10:25What do you make of the match so far? What was the the chat at halftime?
10:29Yeah, i'm not sure the scoreboard reflects how the game has been, you know
10:32New zealand have had some some great chances
10:34Like we've given them some moments in in the game and we know the threat with four in hand and the line breaks
10:40they've made so we just refocus on ourselves about the areas want to play in and and how we
10:46Put pressure back on on them and um how we've got a little bit more to give this second half and
10:51It's great to see that the girls came out and did that right from the off. Thanks very much. Sarah. Thank you
10:58I'll be kind to sarah hunter and just reassure you she's not been on the pies. She is heavily pregnant
11:04Right
11:06Fall away then nice touch through good nudge. Can it be touched down?
11:11Good tidying up work done there by brunt, but they're going to check something
11:22Nice idea by acheson. Yes, luckily there's nobody in the backfield
11:25To you
11:40Well, the red roses haven't retreated back towards the halfway
11:44They're hanging around at the moment on the 22, which is sometimes an indication of how confident they are
11:56So
12:04Amy yep, we have a decision. Yep
12:08Stick with the on-field
12:10Go and drop that. Yes, sir
12:12You can stick with the on-field decision grounded by black
12:16No, try go line dropper
12:19So it's taken over the line by white black touchdown goal line dropper
12:26So
12:29Scarrett still scarrett
12:36Try to get involved it back in play emily scarrett
12:39Left playing a lot of 12 last season now more in her traditional shirt of 13
12:45The ball just gets lost there in contact on the floor and they'll restart with that scrum
12:50I mean interesting emily scarrett had a really tough last season
12:53Didn't she a lot of injuries? She was coming back from managing her body
12:57But the injury to make jones who's part of our commentary team today has really given her an opportunity
13:02To get back in that 13 shirt and have a shot
13:05It really has you know, like you say we were used to emily scarrett in the 12 shirt last year
13:08You see it here and this is what she's known for isn't that ability to carry the ability to stay strong?
13:14So it's great
13:15I suppose from john mitchell's perspective to have somebody like emily scarrett that you can just pull out of that
13:2012 shirt and think actually i'm going to put her back into that familiar 13 shirt, you know, meg jones will be back
13:25Soon, you've got helena roland's on the bench today. So there is the abundance of talent out there as well for the red roses
13:32Emily scarrett is also the top point scorer in world rugby against the black ferns
13:40Yeah, just a bit of timing there no problem
13:42Just wait for my
13:45Well in traditional rugby style this second half is not quite as free-flowing as the first
13:59Natasha wondering if she will get her hands on the ball anytime soon
14:05Again one of four players still in action from that 2014 world cup winning squad
14:12Oldest player in the squad at 35
14:15Strong as ever and then black wins
14:18And finally, amy barrett-throng gives us a free kick to get this ball moving
14:29Joseph king popped off ball there by tukawafu homes ready to mop up
14:36Okay
14:39Popped away king once again big pass out wide. Let's see. I think
14:44Trying to dance around a phone box, but nicely read by acheson
14:54You get early to the blues back rower
14:58Back row a real strength at the moment for the black ferns. That's where the highest competition is for places in their squad
15:04joseph
15:05She's thin enough doesn't want to play inside of her own half anymore. Now. I think that went straight out, but there's a penalty
15:11i'm going for the charge
15:14It wasn't clear for me so i'm trusting the system. Yeah
15:20And I can see there will be changes for the red roses soon
15:24If they've got a player down on the far side fey and arty, they're just receiving a bit of treatment
15:29Don't stop in front of the kicker
15:32As the ball goes out of play it doesn't it's still going killed done
15:38Mistake again that both sides haven't quite been clean
15:42When it comes to finding touch
15:45acheson
15:46heard
15:50Scarratt thinks you can see a little bit of space would have been a 50 22, but home stops it. Well
15:57Farcola again
16:02Oh nice stuff here with the opportunity
16:15She saw her opportunity and she took it blackbirds on the board
16:24She's got so much opportunity
16:28Caitlin bahacolo 24 years old
16:31To make her mark on this squad
16:34She's probably been new zealand's best attacking player as well
16:37You know ball in hand and here really comes from nothing
16:40Marley pucker on the edge just hacks ahead, isn't it?
16:43And it's that thing england have done all day. They've let the ball bounce emily scarratt gets an awful bounce
16:47Really demont there mops it up and once she's got ball in hand big friend
16:52Like we've seen from abbey town and nobody was going to catch her
16:55But england have got to make sure they start catching that ball on the full as we see what a lovely finish
17:04Holmes now with the conversion. She's got a really interesting kicking style
17:08homes
17:09And that one hasn't worked. She kind of does this like pumping on run up. Sometimes it's an absolute beauty
17:15But that time not so much. I really enjoyed your impression of it. It was uh,
17:19Very very good for the views at home. I couldn't see it
17:22So on that note, uh, let's head down to jenny drummond
17:30Alongside tony christie once again, it's only crucially you've got a score there, but how do you go about closing the gap?
17:36Yeah, we just talked about two things our energy and our execution. So just finishing those opportunities that we did well there
17:43What was the chat at halftime then and what do you need to do here?
17:46Yeah, we just talked about the middle of our defense being a little bit tighter and some of our decision makings on the edges
17:52But great to see straight away after halftime. There's some good mulled defense and defending our line. Thanks very much for your time. Thank you
18:00Changes then for england. Thank you. Jenny
18:05Fresh front row amy cocaine hannah bottom and maude muir are all on
18:09Is
18:20And I think moana tallyng has come on to replace her
18:24Georgia brock will have to wait change also for new zealand. Olsen baker off and sae onto the field
18:31There's a miscommunication there from new zealand. They lose a couple of yards
18:35There's king
18:37He's been studying for a degree in agriculture
18:40has to do a little bit of
18:42Digging herself to try and get themselves out of trouble
18:48He's at nine
18:54Joseph
18:56Charged down by old croft. Let's see. I ain't on it
19:01Nice zigzagging run. It was brunt who actually managed to jump on that one
19:07He's at nine
19:11Talking of degrees my joseph is actually studying medicine
19:13But has taken a break for a year to focus on her rugby as the ball just bounces there to kill time
19:19She lit up the six nations. Will she go once again referee will bring it back
19:24So
19:34Calm down
19:36Another player
19:48But ellie killed done now
19:49She's just such an exciting player made such a name for herself after that incredible six nations campaign, but good referee
19:55There's nothing just smart referee wasn't it? I think it's come from the tm all because
20:00Referee wasn't in line, but good work from ellie. She gets up off the ground
20:04She knows there's going to be a competition just a bit of juggling there. I'm still trying to be here. So it's okay
20:11Yeah
20:26Fine
20:35All right reset branson won't be happy so we do have some new faces that's fine
20:39But we need clear stability on the safe. Okay
20:42We're just a bit edgy
20:44Trying my best
20:51And the red roses have been spending their week
20:54Guessing oasis songs because I think that's what everyone's doing at the moment
20:57They've been doing a bit of golf putting you can tell i've been on their social media channels
21:01Let's go
21:02Apparently coffee is a very important thing for them, but abby ward you just sort of dip down there into that scrum
21:07She was in charge of organizing
21:09Sarah hunter's baby showers
21:12The defense coach won't be heading off to wxv with the team she'll be staying here for her
21:19Up and coming arrival. What a scram by the red roses
21:24That was a flex
21:27We've waited for that new front row and they're really dominated and got their early good hit
21:33New zealand couldn't live with that
21:35Yep
21:41Really interesting as the ball goes high there and it's gone over
21:47The flag so it's going to come back scrum where she kicked it from or 22 droppers
21:53Yes
21:55So the ball went over the flag it hasn't stayed in the field of play to as it goes out
22:01Yes, so it's another gift after that massive scrum
22:05Huge frustration for england huge frustration at the moment, you know, it doesn't doesn't have a big impact on the game
22:11They've got a three
22:12three score lead
22:14But when those games are closer those moments are huge. Holly agency needs to make sure she's on her money
22:23Fascinating that new zealand appeared to have opted for a scrum, but we've got changes coming now for new zealand
22:31Now quite a big cheer has gone up as aisha leti anger makes her way off the field but coming on in her place is
22:37ruby tui
22:40Arguably one of the best known rugby players in the world
22:45Leti anger will be pleased with her 58 minutes. Remember not played for quite a long time at this level
22:53But ruby tui
22:57Is a name that many of you will know as bremner also takes applause from the bench as does chris velika as well
23:06Coming onto the field then it was kate henwood mama vaipulu and there she is ruby tui
23:12olympic sevens champion
23:14Went viral
23:15before the black ferns and the king did from an interview she did with our colleague here at the bbc jill douglas for
23:21An incredible ruby tui interview
23:25But we've got a bit of rugby here because after that amazing scrum from england last time out
23:29It's the black ferns who've managed to win a penalty
23:33Yeah, it's a bit of yo-yo, isn't it? It's just not allowing the game to to come to life a little bit. It's really quite
23:39Stalling so be interested now whether the black ferns can launch something for this next line out
23:51Well holmes does find her touch
23:53And interesting to see how these replacements for the black ferns if they can make an impact
23:58There is quite a bit of experience on the bench. There's hannah bottoman on your screen to the left there
24:03fresh legs for the red roses
24:09Here comes the ball for the black ferns back line
24:12To
24:19Run straight into alex matthews. He does a good bit of wrestling work to deal with her opposite woman to eat
24:27Gives the extras out wide to sahe
24:30Sahe still going
24:36Brunt big pass
24:39It's a nikka ali tou and this is better from the black ferns going through the phases
24:47Ruse
24:50Have they found some momentum here the visitors finally huge tackles now by the roses
24:57Tui popped out wide to bahakono. Will this be her second? She's gonna touch down
25:02um
25:06She knows where the try line is
25:08And is this the start of a real comeback in the second half for caitlin bahakono and the black ferns?
25:17It was a really well worked try. It's probably the best we've seen
25:21New zealand string their play together both forwards and backs working together doing their job
25:26We just sit here. They did a really good job ruby to you finding the space on the edge making ellie kildon moho fight
25:33It's great tagger for zoe allcroft, but that's how quickly new zealand
25:37Recycle how quickly ball gets hands and again ruby to we should just come on the pitch another involvement another fix and give
25:44Skills done really really well when there's not a lot of space
25:47Polly atrison has to turn in and it's a really really good finish again down that touchline
25:56So
26:06That's a better attempt by renee holmes
26:10And this game's getting a bit interesting now 12 points in it just under 20 minutes to play
26:18and
26:19Just thinking about the 11th test
26:21It's pretty impressive, isn't it as a young winger?
26:25Finding your feet in the international stage to be that comfortable and that confident when your team needs to finish that and just pull
26:31That out the bag great numbers
26:34Vertical also the 2023 world rugby rookie of the year. You can see why
26:40All gathered by the black ferns
26:46Back back lease on the floor
26:55So
27:18Morning there was given not taken by the black ferns
27:21And those are the kind of mistakes that both of these sites
27:24This is a friendly but it's going to mean so much more when it's a big test match with a trophy on the line
27:28So it really well, but I think what's interesting especially for new zealand
27:32But if they ask me I have to say yes
27:35And when listening to amy barrett throw her on talk to it
27:37You can't use your hands as a night if you're going to dig that out. You've got to use your foot
27:42So she's not saying ball up, but she's saying as soon as she starts using her hand
27:45She's going to allow england to come through and tackle that and I just think it's really good refereeing
27:50It's smart. It's allowing the game to breathe without giving unnecessary decisions, but it's making sure the rules are followed
28:11Ball coming in then for the red roses
28:17Down the line comes from acheson
28:20Honorable heard
28:29No one is holding on to their ball at all
28:35No one's able to sort of close anything out
28:37Yes
28:44Once again mama vaipulu, and he made a debut this year in the pacific four
28:52And listen to that scream coming in by maia kavanagh kolani
28:57I'll be interested in new zealand from here whether this will be an area that annal bunter will really look on
29:02I don't think new zealand have exited particularly
29:05Well, they've copped off some opportunity for england to turn over in this instance to get a penalty to exit
29:10But they don't look very organized and certainly not providing a lot of protection to their their nines and tens
29:18Okay more changes coming on as we just watch this replay
29:22Yeah, it's a really good read there. Is there she gets out of the line
29:26The try score a bit of blood just comes out shuts down. Tatiana heard nice and early
29:31But here we saw hannah king just dancing around
29:34Doesn't have not a lot of organization
29:37Not a lot of planning for new zealand
29:41Well, we saw that hannah king coming off for amy duplessy, but emily scarrett she's gonna go and take a seat
29:49After 64 minutes there. Helena roland slotting in at 13
29:54We assume that ruhe demente will now step up and to that 10 channel
30:01Killed done
30:04She's gonna straighten
30:15Still england pool
30:18Aitchison thinks you can see a little bit of space behind the black ferns. What have they got? They've got demente. They've got homes
30:26And england have got big tackles
30:29Is
30:33Big pass out wide there's numbers here for the black ferns if they can straighten
30:37Took a walk through the captain. Can she get the last pass? No vahocolo should be on for the hat trick if she can run
30:46Big hit coming in there by amy rule also known as cutter
30:51Started that world cup final had to settle for a bench position today
30:56Oh
31:10She knows not been on the field too long huge frustration
31:15Tough because it was building nicely wasn't it? New zealand were getting through their phases against pressurized england
31:21See here, it's a big long pass out short england or tatiana heard happened to work really hard ball in two hands again
31:28And I think it's zoe allcroft
31:30Makes a great tackle from behind
31:34Yeah
31:36Yeah, well, that's a day then for maya joseph
31:40One in her place
31:44Plays for the hurricanes
31:51Yeah
32:06Another player who's really all over sport in her youth played a lot of basketball as well
32:14Also made a bit of a name for herself in rugby sevens
32:17Six
32:20She gets her 11th cap today for new zealand
32:27Heard does just get that pass away somehow doubt
32:32New zealand just a little bit more touchy whenever dow's on the ball
32:37Aitchison towards the middle of the field huge tackles raining down there
32:42Matt rosie's lucky to hold on to that ball heard again. He's repositioned quickly. Oh, baby. Okay. What a take she's off
32:49She's playing she needs support. That's fast. It's helena roland fresh legs on the field still going strong
32:57Big important tackles coming in by the black ferns who were under huge pressure
33:07Just checking what the decision's going to be here they've got a choice
33:11Okay
33:14Amy cocaine what a run
33:17What a run from amy
33:18Cocaine, but what a pass from tatiana heard it was so so flat at the line
33:24Amy cocaine like a steam train just comes bombing through here
33:27You don't even get to see the pass but helena roland worked really really hard to get on her shoulder
33:33But a great great tackle. I think for rudy tamon. They're really really good halls are down
33:39New zealand do not want to be playing at this end of the field again
33:43They just got a couple of tries. They want to get out of here fast
33:48Nicely working it through the hands
34:00Red roses quick up into black ferns faces. They want to run it new zealand. It's what they do duplicy on the floor
34:08higher
34:10Rule
34:17Higher again, finally demont puts boot to ball killed dunces. Thank you
34:24And the red roses will attack again
34:28Tackle coming in that time by rapulu bottom and just spinning in and out there does well to hold the ball
34:38Natasha has really directed traffic
34:42Kept her head under the pressure so far
34:47Maud
34:52Taking the tackles
34:58Heard
35:01Her doing well to get over the game line packer loses the ball forward
35:08Still loose on the floor. It's all backwards from the black ferns. They've got the advantage
35:14to a
35:15duplicy
35:20You've got a scrum advantage black ferns need to get out of their own half they've been stuck in porridge for a while now
35:32Rule again
35:35I think the referee's putting everyone out of their misery there
35:41Abby there's a little little something something in your face
35:47Okay, so there's a little bit of chicken going on there to abby ward and they're just waiting to see if they can do the
35:53subs as well
35:58Abby wardy's got a little bit of claret there
36:01And here we go
36:03Captain marley packer will go and take a seat. No problem with that ankle from the warm-up, but a big moment also
36:10for georgia brock
36:1223 year old from gloucester harbury makes her england debut on one of the biggest stages of them all
36:19Wonderful moment for her
36:21But straight into business
36:24It's great to see i've commented a lot on georgia brock in the pwr
36:28And she has been a standout player for gloucester harbury last season when they won
36:33When they won the title she is
36:35Really really good ball carrier, which is great on the ground very very smart rugby player
36:40And I think she'll fit really nicely into this pack really complimentary the way she wants to the way she wants to play
36:49Of course a big moment for brock as well
36:52Knowing that that wxv squad announcement is coming up next week. What can she do with these 10 and a half minutes?
36:59So your craft now has the captain's armband after marley packer has gone off still got a vice captain out there
37:05Natasha hunts very similar to what they do actually at club level as well because uh, natasha hunts and
37:12So we all craft our co-captains at gloucester. Hartbury is that abbey wall gets wrapped up?
37:17Okay
37:20So
37:25Both sides just settling down right there. Don't forget. It's a weekend of rugby with scotland against fiji at the moment
37:33That's coming up at 4 20 on the eye player
37:35Everyone building up towards wxv, of course
37:39And there's a bit of rugby league also coming your way on bbc, too
37:42Hollis c against salford that one at five o'clock in the super league
37:47Yeah
37:49Another cheeky little change there for the red roses
37:53Lucy packer, so there's still a packer on the field
37:57No relation. We have to say every time marley and lucy
38:02Natasha hunt will be pleased with her there the office controlled things well
38:06Yeah, she's gone really really well really smart play captain bird is off the field
38:12So
38:13Harrison is on likely that she'll be on in that 10 position
38:19With the hack on down the near side of the field
38:24Fresh legs on there in the form of zoe harrison who's been well tracked back there by the black ferns
38:29Good hard work coming in there by brock in particular
38:33Just to make sure the black ferns couldn't come back quickly and try and get over the top of that ball
38:37Get up get up lucy packer gives it to allcroft
38:47He was at 21, thank you
38:49If the black ferns did get a score now
38:51It would make a very nervy end to this fixture as the ball comes towards this near side of the field now
38:58Good first touch then
39:00By harrison to hold on to the ball for a 51st cap
39:04But there is a bit of treatment going on in the middle of the field at the moment amy cocaine
39:10So there is a
39:12A few repairs going on to quite a few players at the moment
39:19And there's a little bit of a warning going into the black ferns there to check what they're doing at the
39:23Breakdown he has actually warning getting into leila
39:26A
39:31Continues to get treatment for that left arm
39:34It's not actually a red rose is put in at the line out
39:36But the referee is waiting because they've got all the medical staff on the field as well
39:48Abby ward looks like she's going the distance in this one
39:53Not bad for someone who's at b now
39:56um
40:01Lolla hair clean in
40:06Nice back inside mikaelu, too
40:10Oh, well
40:12I think amy cocaine there just holding her arm will be a slight concern having just had its trap
40:16She's still holding it but black ferns ball play will continue
40:20If amy cocaine will we'll have to wait and see and she's just grimaced as she's past that
40:27They need to get amy cocaine off the field and fast
40:35And i'm not sure if the red roses have got any subs left, but she is a front row
40:40And that is in their favor. They'll just have to wait though for the moment of it being a square
40:45Yeah, I think amy cocaine looks in a lot of discomfort there doesn't she looks like that left elbow like you say lark davies now is
40:52It's getting ready to come back onto the field. She's always a big ass when you've sat down for 15 20 minutes
41:00Well a lot davis is coming on straight away
41:05And amy cocaine she you can just see by the look on her face
41:11She knows that that injury could be costly
41:15And these players want to play
41:19Davis straight away getting the ball in the red roses continue
41:23They've got to hold on to this lead for eight minutes if they want to come away with another win against the world champions
41:39Harlequin's lucy packer finds sarrison's zoe harrison
41:45Confusion in the midfield by the black ferns
42:00Well, you have to say the black ferns they've had a lovely purple patch in this second half but
42:06Everyone is looking a bit tired at this moment worth saying the red roses
42:10They're just coming off a pre-season block good result for them last week against france
42:16Black ferns haven't played since july. You're beginning to feel a little bit now of that on the field. You really are
42:22It's definitely started. It's lost the life
42:25Should we say I think you know is england have had a really big pre-season like you've touched on the girls will feel that
42:31They fly not too far away for wxv for both sides
42:34So both in very different parts of their prep
42:37Building into what's going to be such a big year for all teams and women's would be
42:4341 and a half thousand packed into the allianz stadium for this one then
42:47Big tackles going in
42:50Still there is some energy out there
42:54Packer harrison
42:57Alcroft
43:01Packer again
43:03Roland spun out ball long. They're really nice connection out wide to break. She hacks on the ball. They can't touch her
43:13Holmes
43:17Killed dunn desperately trying to hold her up knows she has to get her to ground but she's lying on the wrong side
43:3015 miles
43:33Fits her hands up knows it was her fault
43:40And he killed dunn just making her way back
43:49Okay, so a bit of treatment going on there to uh, renee holmes
43:56Just a little bit on the right
44:03So
44:08Well, this is going to take a little bit of time they've decided that they're going to give a
44:12A bit of comprehensive treatment this time to renee holmes
44:16As they start banging out the tunes again around the stadium
44:19And they're just checking in
44:21To see what's wrong with her legs. I think she's going to be okay to carry on
44:25So
44:33Magic tape then comes out that'll sort you out for five minutes running homes to get through to that final
44:40Running home's an interesting one. She's actually played four sports for new zealand
44:45football taekwondo ultimate frisbee
44:48and of course rugby
44:50So
44:54It's not my song
44:56What's your song?
44:58I knew you're gonna go there. Oh, yeah
45:01For you take that number, you know
45:03Or a spice girl number like earlier
45:06If anyone doesn't know it's definitely a take that number
45:09And I know the one that katie loves
45:12Just go and have a little google and see if you can find it other search engines are available
45:20So
45:22Okay far side of the field are we going to finish on a bit of a bang on this match it has been
45:27a bit of a scrappy second half
45:33Atlanta lola hey
45:36Only made her debut
45:38Against australia. So this is just her second cap
45:41In a black fern shirt as they send amy rule. They're known as cutter to her teammates to run through
45:49Straight in ball this time by kate henwood
45:52mom of two to
45:55stella and connor
45:56Also qualified accountant incredibly busy woman
46:01Lola hair again
46:07Looking for endless work
46:12There was desperate to try and slow that down, but it will be a restart and an england ball
46:17She's been very very good today as well as into rudy
46:21someone I thought for new zealand
46:26Well, it is a bit of treatment that's going then to the new zealand players, but it's
46:30Nearly closing down there with the clock. So high time that we found out katie daly mclean
46:34Who is your player of the match? I mean, I think abby dow for england has been very very good today
46:40You know, there's been a couple of real standout
46:42performances, um for new zealand, but for me my
46:46Man of the match today is number eight alex matthews. I think she's been absolutely phenomenal
46:52Around the park, you know her work rate her ability just to stay involved in the game
46:57And when a game like you touched on sara gets so scrappy like that players like this
47:01Instrumental a lot of depth in the game go away. She's been very very good
47:07Well, she's just been announced to the stadium crowd as well popular player
47:1369 caps now for the red roses. She was just 19 years old when england won the world cup back in 2014
47:22Only 31 now she'll certainly be in the mix if fit and available
47:27For that world cup this time next year. We'll be right in the middle of the world cup this time next year
47:32It runs from the 22nd of august to the 27th
47:35Of september as we just see there kate henwood having to come off
47:40So they've had to mix and match they're in the front row once again
47:48Spun out ball killed up
47:55Aitchison does well there to try and tidy ward
48:02Packer harrison
48:05Strong run coming in by muir
48:08Harrison can see space
48:12Ball bounces out on that near side. She was inside of the black ferns heart
48:17So it's not a 50 22, but it's still a nice bit of territory finder
48:21I think zoe harrison coming on has been very very good her moments her involvement great little kick, you know games good done
48:28But just putting the pressure on new zealand. I think she's been very very good really solid performance for her
48:34It's a great identification of space as well just dropping it in there letting abby dow go chase after it
48:43Lola hey, she was a standout school girl as she came through the age groups
48:48Does just find her?
48:50Player there in the air another big run coming in there by tukawafu
48:57She's actually signed the biggest contract in black ferns history four years
49:02That she signed up for hugely important player
49:11Duplicity again and this you have to say are areas where if the black ferns want to progress they need to learn to kick the ball
49:18away
49:19Thank you
49:22It's called exiting in rugby and the energy that they're currently expending the black ferns waiting for that magic moment
49:28Sometimes it just doesn't come they do get the penalty though, and they'll take that
49:33The will but it's such a risk that they're running especially in a game
49:36Look, there's only 12 points in this game. But if you spend the majority of your rugby playing in your 22
49:42Yes, they're looking for moments. Yes
49:44They look for soft shoulders and edges, but if they don't come you really run the risk of conceding points against the good sides
49:51Holmes has missed a touch as well
49:53So any kind of opportunity here for the black ferns to do something pretty much gone now on that moment
50:00Push towards the far side
50:04Here we go
50:07Black ferns advantage minute and a half on the clock
50:12Loose duplicity high spinning ball
50:24Well, they're gonna bring this one back
50:27They're gonna come all the way back for the knock on
50:30The black ferns still stood still from when the moment happened
50:34It is their ball, but you have to say the black ferns
50:37They haven't played since july
50:40They're probably still a bit jet lag. You can feel it in these final moments. They know the scoreboard is gone
50:45Yeah, definitely. It's kind of now for them just running this game hours now
50:48I think england have got an opportunity and i'm sure to error both sides are significantly better than this
50:53Well attention from both. These sites will turn towards wxv in canada when the final whistle goes
50:59The black ferns are treating this six-week block that they're away from new zealand as this almost simulate the rugby world cup next year
51:08But it's going to start this block with a loss against the red roses
51:12Have they got something here duplicy the clock about to go red
51:17brunt
51:19Homes packed on board vahakolo is there the foot race
51:24Harrison is watching the ball. Will it go over? Yes, it will she's made it safe
51:36That is it the red roses get back to back wins over the black ferns
51:43This wasn't a world cup final but could this be the blueprint for this time next year
51:54Four tries for the red roses
51:57Two for the black ferns both scored by paying a few weeks time in canada
52:04But for now, it's all smiles if you are a fan of england who get one over their biggest rivals
52:12Well, they've had a great day. So have we
52:17Dancing away
52:18Everyone's happy. The king is happy
52:21The red roses are happy. The black ferns will be frustrated but first game in a while full-time england 24 new zealand 12
52:31Thank you very much sarah and katie
52:34Yeah
52:34England will be happy and maybe the thing that john mitchell will be most happy about maggie alfonsi is
52:41As he said pre-match he wanted his players to learn to me wants to be pushed
52:44He wanted them to be tested and they were that today. Yeah, look england tested new zealand
52:50They were much more clinical than they were last weekend against france
52:53They look second half probably still needs to improve that it went a bit flat, but england will take some learning from
