Pretty good effort across the board and they’ll go a long way this year if they maintain that defence and fitness. Hard to be critical of the team considering it was round 1 and we’re bound to be a bit rusty.
The only things that stood out with individual performances were the winger Waterman didn’t quite seem up to standard, and Kukutai had one run for 2m, where she was absolutely smashed by Elliott and then didn’t touch the ball again. Think she only played the 15 minutes where Roche was off for an HIA and didn’t get back on the field after that??
