I have to say, I’m surprised by how much talent they got in this team. I was expecting something very different.

Whilst clearly missing the point I think you were making, they did not have enough rugby playing talent to win.

A great 5 minutes of the 1st half, but then NZ showed their class.

Still, plenty to be pleased about for GB and an outside chance of a medal.

Good game that. New Zealand were brutal in the scrums and the breakdowns. I can't see past a NZ v Oz final (and I think the Aussies have got the edge)

Damn ... I missed the Australian/US game but that's a hell of a shock result

France look strong too - the GB/France game could be a cracker

My big hope is that it's going to get a lot of girls looking at rugby and thinking that "I'd like to play that game". I'd love GB to get Gold or Silver as it would do wonders for our recruitment this summer
