Alice Soper: sports journalist on the Black Ferns getting knocked out of the Rugby World Cup
from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB
The Black Ferns are determined to wrap their World Cup campaign with a medal, quickly turning their attention to the bronze playoff next week. They've surrendered their World Cup title, defeated by Canada in the semi-finals in Bristol. Sports journalist Alice Soper has voiced disappointment with this weekend's loss. "On the other hand, as a fan of women's rugby, there is a beautiful story attached to this Canadian team, so you kind of can't help but get behind them and hope that they go all the way - so it's been a tough pill to swallow."
