Was watching the game at the stadium tonight and what a game! Such an incredible atmosphere - just a shame that the Ferns get eliminated as a result of the game.
Well played by both sides considering no goals at all!

That's awesome! It looked like a great place to be. Such a shame the cards fell the way they did.

Well, you can't break from tradition.
My favourite is how, for a short time, the badminton team were called the "Black Cocks", and for some reason people got upset about it.
