The Ferns team named looks very weak in defence, esp with Riley not capable of playing a full 90 mins. Full marks to her commitment flying all the way to NZ, half fit.

NZF/Jitka would have banked on 1-2 of Bowen, Stott & Bunge being available. Is rough that all 3 haven't been released by their ALW clubs, plus Taylor still injured.

Again for NZF is a bit damned if you do, damned if you don't. This opportunity to play the most high profile womens team at home in NZ, won't come around again for a very long time.

Maybe ask the US coach to flog her players in training pre the games sooo much - they are fatigued for the actual games. They will yes be out of season, so wouldn't be unreasonable they were doing some heavy pre season fitness stuff. A quiet word that thrashing our national team prior the WWC, will not be good publicity at all.
