It was very important to have a rematch as we knew they shouldn’t have beaten us in the pool stages and as a result, we felt we had a score to settle. A much more aggressive side this time round, we constantly broke through their defence, interrupted plays and managed to disrupt their continuity of play. The final score was 17-5 to us which put us in the final for the Bingham Shield.

“That match was a turning point for the team, we realised, we can win this and coming off we were like, we ARE winning this”.
