In the early hours of 16 00:00:52,427 --> 00:00:55,667 Speaker 3: this morning. New Zealand trailed twenty four nil early in 17 00:00:55,707 --> 00:00:58,587 Speaker 3: the second half. Before those too late tries to Caitlin 18 00:00:58,907 --> 00:01:02,227 Speaker 3: call or closed the gap. Black Fern's winger Ruby Tooey 19 00:01:02,307 --> 00:01:04,187 Speaker 3: came off the bench and set up the second of 20 00:01:04,187 --> 00:01:06,627 Speaker 3: those tries. As you heard, she joins us. Now, Ruby, 21 00:01:06,667 --> 00:01:08,467 Speaker 3: how do you reflect first of all, on the game 22 00:01:08,707 --> 00:01:13,347 Speaker 3: in broad sort of general terms. Yeah, look, that. 23 00:01:13,267 --> 00:01:16,147 Speaker 4: Game really helped us out. We've got to see a 24 00:01:16,147 --> 00:01:18,947 Speaker 4: lot of pictures, We've got to try a lot of things, 25 00:01:19,547 --> 00:01:22,307 Speaker 4: and mate, the crowd was awesome. A few of us 26 00:01:22,347 --> 00:01:24,787 Speaker 4: stayed around afterwards to sign a few things and the 27 00:01:25,147 --> 00:01:27,267 Speaker 4: support forms, right we have. Yeah, it was really cool 28 00:01:27,387 --> 00:01:27,987 Speaker 4: experience for his. 29 00:01:28,067 --> 00:01:33,187 Speaker 3: Hand, unbelievable. So in terms of the game itself, quite 30 00:01:33,187 --> 00:01:35,267 Speaker 3: a bit of early pressure exerted by the black Ferns, 31 00:01:35,707 --> 00:01:38,667 Speaker 3: a bit frustrating that you couldn't well disappointing you couldn't 32 00:01:38,707 --> 00:01:40,947 Speaker 3: convert that early pressure into some points. 33 00:01:42,907 --> 00:01:45,947 Speaker 4: Yeah, look, that was probably the best start we've had 34 00:01:46,107 --> 00:01:48,947 Speaker 4: in a long time. I think England probably would have 35 00:01:48,947 --> 00:01:52,147 Speaker 4: been really frustrated in that first bit as well. And 36 00:01:52,227 --> 00:01:54,547 Speaker 4: I think you know, there were just a couple of 37 00:01:54,787 --> 00:01:58,627 Speaker 4: tiny moments, passes, bounces kind of thing that if they 38 00:01:58,667 --> 00:02:01,107 Speaker 4: went the other way, you know, we definitely would have 39 00:02:01,107 --> 00:02:03,987 Speaker 4: been a nil some points. All credits to England when 40 00:02:04,027 --> 00:02:06,787 Speaker 4: they come into their green done and out twenty two. 41 00:02:06,827 --> 00:02:09,787 Speaker 4: You know, they converted. You got to commend that. And 42 00:02:09,827 --> 00:02:11,987 Speaker 4: then in the second half I started to open up again, 43 00:02:12,107 --> 00:02:14,307 Speaker 4: so you know, it was a bit of an army resort. 44 00:02:14,387 --> 00:02:17,267 Speaker 4: I think we played really well for a big chunk 45 00:02:17,267 --> 00:02:21,467 Speaker 4: of that game. The parts that they played well, they converted, 46 00:02:21,507 --> 00:02:23,147 Speaker 4: so you have to commit England on that. 47 00:02:23,547 --> 00:02:26,427 Speaker 3: How did you find it watching on from the bench? 48 00:02:27,987 --> 00:02:30,187 Speaker 4: Yeah, to be honest, that's my first time ever coming 49 00:02:30,227 --> 00:02:32,507 Speaker 4: off the bench for the Black Friends, and it's man, 50 00:02:32,787 --> 00:02:34,587 Speaker 4: I could hardly sit down, to be honest. It was 51 00:02:34,627 --> 00:02:37,267 Speaker 4: so exciting, you know. It was so cool to see 52 00:02:37,347 --> 00:02:40,147 Speaker 4: ashev Sijinger return to the Black jusey and you just 53 00:02:40,267 --> 00:02:43,107 Speaker 4: sprinting down that worm like nothing else. On one of 54 00:02:43,107 --> 00:02:45,307 Speaker 4: her breaks, offt ied sprinting down the wind weather and 55 00:02:45,307 --> 00:02:47,147 Speaker 4: I got told off to come back to the sub box. 56 00:02:47,227 --> 00:02:49,707 Speaker 4: So it was just it was so cool. But like 57 00:02:50,067 --> 00:02:53,107 Speaker 4: you know, I try and dedicate my life to being 58 00:02:53,147 --> 00:02:55,027 Speaker 4: a really good Black Friend, but at my heart, I'm 59 00:02:55,067 --> 00:02:56,707 Speaker 4: just such a fan of this team. So it was 60 00:02:56,787 --> 00:02:58,747 Speaker 4: such a cool occasion. It was really really awesome. 61 00:02:58,907 --> 00:03:00,707 Speaker 3: Once you got on, do you did you find it? 62 00:03:00,787 --> 00:03:02,467 Speaker 3: Like people say, I go on make an impact, but 63 00:03:02,507 --> 00:03:03,987 Speaker 3: did you did it take a little bit of time 64 00:03:04,027 --> 00:03:05,587 Speaker 3: to get into the game or were you okay once 65 00:03:05,627 --> 00:03:06,187 Speaker 3: you got on there? 66 00:03:07,947 --> 00:03:09,867 Speaker 4: Now, there was one thing I found watching from the 67 00:03:09,947 --> 00:03:12,907 Speaker 4: bench you can kind of see, you know, that last 68 00:03:12,947 --> 00:03:15,187 Speaker 4: pass or you can see where the space kind of 69 00:03:15,267 --> 00:03:19,427 Speaker 4: was opening up. So yeah, it was. It was really cool. Actually, 70 00:03:19,507 --> 00:03:22,187 Speaker 4: I think it actually helped me doup the sea and 71 00:03:22,267 --> 00:03:25,267 Speaker 4: Hohire coming on. You know, we could we could kind 72 00:03:25,267 --> 00:03:28,547 Speaker 4: of see where to infiltrate them, and we ended up yeah, 73 00:03:29,067 --> 00:03:32,267 Speaker 4: well at least one try. I can't remember exactly, but no, 74 00:03:32,427 --> 00:03:34,867 Speaker 4: it was. It actually sets up quite well, being able 75 00:03:34,907 --> 00:03:36,187 Speaker 4: to see the space before you go on. 76 00:03:36,107 --> 00:03:38,427 Speaker 3: A ticket and a couple of tries for Caitlin at 77 00:03:38,427 --> 00:03:41,707 Speaker 3: the end, how much you know, how much confidence I 78 00:03:41,707 --> 00:03:44,267 Speaker 3: guess do you take from that that you know, eventually 79 00:03:44,627 --> 00:03:46,427 Speaker 3: you did bust them down, got a couple of tries, 80 00:03:46,507 --> 00:03:49,907 Speaker 3: So I guess, just do it, you know a little 81 00:03:49,907 --> 00:03:51,507 Speaker 3: bit earlier in the game. Would that be the would 82 00:03:51,507 --> 00:03:53,147 Speaker 3: that be the key when you meet them again shortly? 83 00:03:54,947 --> 00:03:58,067 Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely, there's just you know, I really I actually 84 00:03:58,067 --> 00:04:00,027 Speaker 4: can't wait to watch the footage because there's just going 85 00:04:00,107 --> 00:04:04,427 Speaker 4: to be so much gold in there for us, you know, definitely, 86 00:04:04,507 --> 00:04:06,187 Speaker 4: Like I said, got to commend them on their twenty 87 00:04:06,187 --> 00:04:08,787 Speaker 4: two entries, but looking back at ours, I know all 88 00:04:08,787 --> 00:04:11,747 Speaker 4: of us are going to be being like, oh, I 89 00:04:11,827 --> 00:04:14,747 Speaker 4: was so close.
