Probably the greatest most complete NZ team I’ve ever seen. Unreal defence and mid court and shooting out of this world. Roses fan here probably one of our best teams too
This is the best Fern ever.. Langman is incredibly the best centre in the world, Folau undoubtedly one of the best shooter in the world, Kopua is the best defender of all time, even not in her best form after retiring. Ekenasio the best GA in this entire edition, so calm n on fire. Watson, what a performance, so great in intercepting balls. Rore, great switch to WD, shut the opponent down so well. Crampton n Saunders both are unstoppable attackers with great defensive skill. Last but not least, Taurua, the best Fern coach ever, i really love her great touch of coaching, changed the style of play , so motivative, well arranged and very inspiring… but so sad, we cant see this great team anymore as the three fossils are retired.
Watching the fossils again tonight after 4yrs in this semi still gives me joy. And playing against some of the fossils in their early days back in 2006-12 before I moved to Melbourne makes me proud and honoured to have been given the opportunity, and look at them in their final world cup ❤️🥺🥰
I feel so much for the Red Rose's. They did such an amazing work to try and get on top. However the Silver Fern fought their hearts out. Literally in tears awesome game😍🙂 Ekanasio you did what your team needed you to do and that was to shoot. I've always been a HUGE fan of Maria Tutaia as a GA or GS. It is about time Maria Tutaia got a partner that is able to share the work load. Casey Kopua definitely going to miss you, you have brought such an epic defense line in the Silver Fern team. I've always admired your work since you came out in 2006 for the FERNS. Just know that you are a legend, you wore the black dress and took pride in it for that I will always remember you. Laura Langman, the best midcourt player I've ever seen in the Ferns, since Seymour and Temepara George. You definitely took after those who have played for our SILVER FERN Team. So proud of our SILVER FERN TEAM.
Laura Langman probably the Silver Fern's best centre since the great Sandra Edge (nee Mallet) who was part of the world cup-winning team of 1987. Sandra Edge is arguably NZ's greatest centre.
As a kiwi, this game was way more satisfying than the final. Seeing our girls beat the Roses who thought they were gonna cruise into the final!! England win one major title then think they are unbeatable, haha.
When Roses led by 3 at the end of 1st half.. i thought Ferns will lose the game in 2nd half.. but u see, how calm they were throughout 2nd half.. i can see their patience, enthusiasm, artistic and self determination, and all those values were well coorporated by their coach.. amazing
Unfortunately for England, Beckford-Chambers didn't have the fitness to keep up with Ekenasio, which allowed Ekenasio to get better as the game went on. Guthrie also looked too nervous during the game, while Folau kept Mentor very quiet. I don't think Mentor is quite as effective against a moving circle (which is funny considering she trains against Harten and Housby). Haythornthwaite was definitely a good super-sub, but wasn't put on early enough.
Close game. Love all these players. Both teams made some huge mistakes. But both teams made some huge plays, like when Saunders got that deflection, kept it in with Folau letting it bounce closer to the goal to nail it and Hartens deceptive bullet passes straight past Kopua and Watson to Housby right under the goal to score. It could've gone either way. Amazing game.
How is 26:38 is a short pass and 26:56 is not? Tutaia let the ball bounce and roll first when Haythornthwaite pass straight to Harten hand with no room for a defender? Michelle Phippard should not be umpiring at this level.
England were shocked and thought after their CWG gold they were the shit! Sorry NZL had other plans! Beating the hosts and defending champs Aus made the kiwi win even more sweeter ☝️🤙🏽👊🏾
Since I have last watch a netball game, I have seen a clear improvement of England tbh...once upon a time they werent able to compete vs NZ, it was both NZ and AUS as the untouchables
The people/sports players who have high expectations often do because they give 110%, that is the case with Laura, she’s gives so much without even knowing, she inspires and demands it back. It’s awesome
@@barackobamaisawesome i think it was because the other commentator had used her maiden name and then corrected herself with her using her current last name hahahah, still such a strange comment to make though
Great game. Some mad skills on display. Good in nz - less that two years before they were completely written off. Really also enjoy England's play though I think they do allow their passion to rush things a bit and in such a close game it was the difference.
Just like the womans rugby world cup final NZ weren't given a chance but won and I suspect the All Blacks will do the same thing this year at the world cup because people are underestimating them
@@mickdavies2532 birds of the same feathers 🪶 flock together you no different than her, she's to outta timing with her rude self nothing about her is sportsman like .
Gollum Nation pfft England thought they were going to win and they lost and they lost in front of there home crowd! Kiwis showed them who was the best!
@@chriswhata kiwis showed them who was best on that day, last year on the gold coast england won, so they’re not the best, they were the best on that day
New Zealand was so humble and controlled the game from the start until at the end, it was so amazingly, but to be honest, New Zealand {silver ferns} are the best IN THE WORLD, Australia they ever won many world cup because of umpires, that is it, they play roughly and ugly, but mostly they won is because of umpires, they always nine players in the court 2 umpires + 7 = 9. NEW ZEALAND Netball Entertain a lot, they are the best ever.
I recall checking the stats after the game and it was something like zero intercepts, zero deflections and one rebound... Maria took her out of the game completely and opened up the circle for Ameliaranne. England needed to change the lineup to make Maria do something different.
@@jadeanewirihana6421 WR and the refs are doing everything they can to favour the NH in rugby too but it backfired on them at the womans rugby world cup final against England 😂 I suspect the ABs will do the same thing at the rugby world cup this year too because people are writing them off but no matter what WR do you cant stop greatness 🇳🇿
My 2 least favourite players were Englands WD and C. The WD was very negative and kept throwing herself in front of people and just trying to get barging calls (like some fraudulent insurance claim pedestrian) but she almost always was moving, but like basketball, to get a call you need to plant both feet. The Centre seemed to make some deliberate fouls (clearly wrenching balls from players and silly obstructions) then when penalised acting like she was robbed by the umpire.
That is Clarke's style of play. She tries to get the opposing team to contact thus giving her team a penalty. Lucky the umpires now call that type of play up.
This is all we could find of that match: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MBj1b0wjX4Q.html - We'll speak to CGF and see what netball we can make available in the future. Enjoy!
@@jazzbarker9514 I am Australian. IMO when I have heard Aussie commentators such as Liz Ellis and Sharni Layton commentate international games they have always sounded very impartial and fair, even when I have tried to fault them. I have felt that the bias has been a common issue in other games with these commentators in particular.
@@tessw5304 They are worse! Always talking up the Diamonds throughout every game. Although, Liz isn't too bad though. She is pretty fair. But as for Sharni 👎
@@tessw5304 I agree! Tbh I prefer the Aussie commentators (particularly Liz Ellis, Cath Cox, Dan Ryan, Sue Gaudion) over the English and Kiwi ones. And I'm a Kiwi 🥝 Although I have to agree with you Jazz, that Sharni is a bit difficult to listen to lol
13:20 EKANASIO IS A QUEEEENNNN 22:02 WATSON A QUEEENNNNNN 28:15 EKANASIO FELL 39:33 LMAO ENGLAND GA THOUGHT IT WAS A TURNOVER THEN COMPLAINS ABT IT WKWKKWKSKK 54:30 HAHAHHA FERNS'S GD CONTACTED BY GA ENG
Casey was definitely guilty of intimidation. I read her lips, she was telling Harten to say her name 3 times in a row quickly (Stacey Kopua, Stacey Kopua, Stacey Kopua ahhhhhhhhh....)
And what can England do without Harten, Guthrie, Clark, Mentor, chambers? They're ancient and eventually will retire soon . Goodluck cause we smashed england without Folau 😂😂😂
jayjayla yes it is true but I love to see bailey mes play abit more. Why don’t they follow the diamonds the way they set up their players and give chances to each of them to play half game or full game .
@@amirunmohammad1645 have you not seen the most recent vitality nations cup? The team was loaded with young players getting valuable experience against the top teams in the world. I'll have you know the ferns ended up winning all four test matches and took home the cup .
UK always complaining about American sports. The commonwealth games are genuinely gone and it’s because of stupid sports like this. I would rather paint a building than watch this crap.
Change my mind but this sport is so damn pointless imo. Theres literally no way to defend if the offensive player isn't mentally challenged and you just stand there pivoting on one foot. How boring is that to play and watch
