First of all thanks for posting this and secondly it's such a shame that the games were not better attended. These women deserve a far bigger audience.

I am 72. I have watched Rugby since the 60's and still do not understand the rules. It's a great game

The way the English ladies play the game, I think I’d prefer to watch them over the men.

It’s a handling game with the ladies. Thank you. Long may it remain that way.

[davidd]

Having watched all the England ladies gams, they play much more fluid rugby than their male counterparts

Australia might consider buying some longer shorts.

[petrolhead]

Have to say, the lack of crowds have to make you wonder why it was held in New Zealand. And the camerawork was horrible.

[expressoevangelism]

Shoulder direct to head, no bending of knees. In the men’s game England would have been given a red card without any discussion.

[johnpoile]

Second yellow was deserving of a red card alone, no attempt to play the ball just go and do the player. England beat Australia at rugby Australia beat England at cricket. Would you swap?

[michaelmorgan]

In the first half at 26 minutes the commentator said that the positions between Australia & England was, " Pretty equal" . The score at that time was England 14 & Australia 0.

Annabelle Cody! Complete hooligan, should never play again. Both ‘tackles’ intentional to harm, she should be ashamed.

[michaelmorgan]

Annabelle Cody's 2nd Yellow card was a reward for her cynical & blatant cheating in attempting to intimidate a smaller England player. There's been a few "intentional" high tackles in this match from Australia along with a few accidental "elbow" tackles which is a pity as Australia have a team with great potential..

[soddof]

Australia being drubbed is there any way we can NOT red card this Australian.

[davebrokenshire]

Marlie Packer is becoming as iconic as Richie McCaw.

[tinasheprospermubaiwa]

Wallaroos need more game time. first i have seen England going over 10 phases without gaining ground, speaks a lot about Aussie defense.

[andrewjackson]

If ever a real fight breaks out, someone needs to teach Rosie Galligan how to punch. Packer knows!

[JamesArthurMoran]

Holly Aitcheson is England's best number 10 and easily the best kicker - she should always be selected.

[JaemanEdwards]

Much appreciated Robin Hood. Subscribed.

I enjoy watching women's rugby. I know some people do not like it but if you compare the men's team wih the women's team then I cannot see that the women's team is not the better team. Since 2014 the men's team has won the six nations once compared to the six times in a row for the women.

We got wacked and our line outs were horrid + plus we were never going to win scrums with the size of the English pack.

[glynnwright]

Wyrwas provides very fast service, but she made a number of uncharacteristic errors in this game.
