Great result for the Black Sticks, but let's be honest, France isn't exactly a hockey powerhouse. Still, unbeaten is unbeaten!
2-1 win against France? Mate, that's barely a win. They'll get smashed by the big teams later.
get stuffed mate, France are ranked above us in the world. do some research.
Solid stuff from the girls. Tough game, good to see them grinding out results. That's what tournament hockey is about.
lol cope. come back when they win something that matters.
ffs can we just appreciate them for once? unbeaten in the comp and still some of yous are moaning 🙄

Anyone know if the next game is on TV? Keen to watch but can't find it listed.
A win is a win. France are no mugs, they've improved heaps. Good to see the team clicking.
facts. they're not flash but they're not easy beats either. decent test.
Yay go the Black Sticks! So proud of our team. Keep it up ladies! 🏑
2-1 against France... wow we're really setting the bar high. Reminds me of the men's team after the Olympics. Joke.
bit harsh mate. the team's building well, tournament's not over yet.
