What an intercept from Amy Du'Plessis, perfectly timed.

Breakdown turnover again, crossfield kick and then a break through the centre.

Winning turnover after turnover. Kennedy Tukuafu brilliant but plenty of support from the rest of the pack too. If we win this game, credit will go to that and our leg drive in the tackle too.18 Apr 2026 02:37 +0000at://did:plc:ltwcd64ix2emtdoortrk4zi5/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjqft53e4226https://bsky.app/profile/asherwilsongoldman.bsky.social/post/3mjqcsj2mns26Finally we get across the line! So many last passes off the mark or dropped so far this game, but the attack is looking super dangerous. Strung some phases together there and a well taken try by the skip. Go the Black Ferns!18 Apr 2026 01:43 +0000at://did:plc:ltwcd64ix2emtdoortrk4zi5/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjqcsj2mns26https://bsky.app/profile/asherwilsongoldman.bsky.social/post/3mjm5447nf22mFundraiser quiz for the wonderful Te Ara Korowai in Raumati tonight. Pleased to say that the Green Lanterns finished third, ahead of the National and Labour Party teams, with a strong showing too from the Four-Leaf Clovers in sixth, another Green team. Surely a positive sign for the year ahead!16 Apr 2026 09:50 +0000at://did:plc:ltwcd64ix2emtdoortrk4zi5/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjm5447nf22mhttps://bsky.app/profile/asherwilsongoldman.bsky.social/post/3mjlhq7ynwk2fApparently this Metlink train is going to some location on an alien planet?16 Apr 2026 03:28 +0000at://did:plc:ltwcd64ix2emtdoortrk4zi5/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjlhq7ynwk2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/asherwilsongoldman.bsky.social/post/3mjjhod5i422yJust made a batch of the old MoF recipe cheese scones for work tomorrow.
