Great composure and adjustment to stick to your systems BFs. Took the brunt of the US (post-red carding) onslaught and came back to take control of the match rather convincingly. Way to go USA, took your chances when you could and certainly not lacking in intent. Great tourny and some fantastic skills on display by all the wahine toa!
The saying Kia Kaha covers so many areas and when you combine that with the team spirit our B.Fs have, you have champions. A credit to themselves and New Zealand.
USA seemed to run out of steam despite a player advantage. Tired, cramping up, and having the ball stripped. Too bad they squandered the lead, but the Kiwis never give up. Interesting match.
The difference between a yellow and red card should be determined by the fact of it being either intentional or careless as opposed to accidental. The fact that another player was involved does not make it any less punishable
i think it was the level of danger involved. Face to face is pretty much an unintentional head butt, dangerous for both players, so careless. The other one was shoulder to side of face. The result of getting sandwiched. Neither intentional or careless, and less dangerous.
still not a red. As a referee myself I understand what u mean but we have to look at the other angles and reasons for the dangerous tackle. U have a good point never the less
There’s a lot of reffs that give the game to who ever has them on pay roll. We had one like that. After that game we F**ked up that ref and gave him our own red card 😂😂
In the men's game a red card is 20 mins and they can replace the player, not that that deserved a red card. If they weren't down a player (key player) this would have been another half century or worse. Really proud of you girls
@@conorcahill5422 they really do need to bring that rule in, it would keep games from going lobsided, because if it were the U.S that had the red and yellow game over
@@kelsyn21 I disagree, the red cards are here for a reason : to protect the integrity of the players. Getting one means you've made a dangerous mistake. Professional players just need to learn how to tackle properly if they don't want to penalize their team for the rest of the game.
She down from 2:14 (of 80:27), so, would be 98% of the match. Hahaha. Making the time so accurate is just to illustrate the challenges they face, so to show my respect, and they did a great job.
I love the diversity within the team by that I mean pakehas are so majestic and unique they basically balance the ambiance and mana within the game Polynesia and Māori sister are built for specific roles and abilities and they have a whaunu mentality you fight for the mighty BLACK FERNS you become included into one awesome family 😊😊😊🎉🎉
much of what folks are describing as the US playing better in the first half especially was actually absolutely abysmal refereeing- I'm not arguing the red card, it was in the end a fair call although the yellow for the US for a similar offense, downgraded from red because a second tackler was considered mitigation which in fact it was not as it did not cause the ball carrier to significantly drop in height nor did it impede the angle and sight of the offending tackler, should also have been red- however the US were constantly allowed to be offside and often entered mauls from the side which was similarly ignored- indeed the second US try, from a so-called "quick tap" by the US #7, wasn't even tapped (see minute 4:21 on this video), and ref missed it- that being said, Ruahei was certainly the steadying influence needed before halftime and the senior players subbing in certainly made the difference, but too important experience gained for the starting lineup not least "guess what, we're a player down, deal with it"
US international rules based order i.e. opposing player gets red card for accidental head contact while US player gets yellow card for intentional shoulder charge.
I thought Chelsea Bremner was an unsung hero. She made a lineout steal, made a huge difference in the power of the scrum (locks provide much of the pushing power in a scrum) and made a lot of hard yards carrying the ball. I notice the scrum victories started coming for NZ once the 1st choice forwards came off the bench.
I don't want to sound like I am mansplaining anything but I do know a little about tackling. Your traps and shoulders and arms are what you should use for tackling... You pick a style of tackle you want to do with those tools, and then you execute that tackle while getting your head out of the way. I understand that often you only get a split second to decide what tackle you want to try, but every option should include you getting your head out of the way.
That yellow was a bit odd. The NZ player was actually rising. I can't see how that would be a mitigating factor. Had the other tackler not forced the ball carrier up, it would have been square on the temple.
Why world rugby not bringing in the 20 minute red card is beyond me, it's been trialled at the highest level and so many red cards are completely unintentional.
@@JaemanEdwards If you position yourself poorly when you have time to position yourself well and you contact the head, a card is appropriate. It's only a rugby indicent of either player changes direction at a speed or time that makes the reaction almost impossible. That's the mitigating factor. Had the player been falling in the tackle, I'd then call it a rugby incident.
@@IronmanKiwi I'd say in the professional game just get rid of the onfield red card altogether and just have every yellow referred for review and have the option of the upgrade to 20min red card or a full red card. If someone has a complete meltdown a full red card is sometimes appropriate.
Playing like the world champions they are. The Black Ferns are all class. Being a player down actually made this game more interesting. The USA need to incorporate the substantial attacking threats of the sevens girls after the Olympics. Naya Tapper, Sammy Sullivan, and offload queen Ilona Maher would give this team some much needed strike players.
Referee were trying to help USA LMAO; it was a head on head contact (Black Fern #9 was wrapping her arms like what any Rugby Union player should be doing - not like the Red Rose in the 2021 Rugby World Cup final where she didn't even tried to wrap her opponent)

@@benstanley1849 Well, let's say you did. Then perhaps for a guy who played for 30 seasons, somehow, the fact you disregard a deserved card for a serious offence committed by a player who should have known better raises concerns about what you may have taught those who play the sport. If you were a player, you would not call this decision a 'joke'. Especially when you look at the climate of head-related injuries that were negligibly ignored.
They no longer ref these games they police them the tmo is looking for something to penalise all game accidental head contact is automatic red card and any contact to the head is immediately pulled up its ridiculous like they might aswell put tags on them or play touch footy
There was a white on black high tackle. Forearm on neck, immediately after the red and yellow cards.. not called at all. And a dump tackle in the same play. Only a penalty. And it's not as if the other 76 minutes of the game were not talking about were any better from the ref really.
There is a clear separation between the ‘starters’ and those players outside the 23. Defensively those players who were given a start today were poor. The experienced players who came on showed their class.
Rosie and Grace selected to tour in specialist positions...Backline was dysfunctional. therefore Tenika should have gone to 9 Sevens players can play anywhere
@JaemanEdwards Look at the top womens players in the US right now are Polynesian. Majority of the USA women's team should be players from Lindenwood and Life. Don't know how players from IV league schools get in over Lindenwood when their schools play lesser competition and quite frankly aren't anywhere as good.

Chelsea Bremner is the heart of the engine room and is a crucial component in this team. Her and Maya Roos are straight soldiers in the tight.
She was immense. Channeling Brodie in a few of her lumbering carries.
Really like these commentators.

I am 2mins 54 seconds in, and all the tackles look dangerous.

One player down minute 2 and super effort. Well done
Well played Girls You do us Kiwi's proud
So red card for a head clash but yellow for a shoulder to the head 🤔
I can not believe what I saw when players accidentally bump heads and the recipient gets RED carded. Bloody ridiculous if you ask me.
I agree with you it was unintentional but they need to be strict with head collisions to force players to improve their form.
It's the responsibility of the tackler. The laws say so.
I'm surprised they can't tackle properly.
Up the Black Ferns!!!
This carding business is destroying the game.
I see this way face on face contact play on
Lead with the shoulder to the face Red
Simple
Class and Character.
