Amazing, fully deserved achievement for Sophie de GOATe!

Canadians watching England lift the WRWC trophy, after their epic match that they won fair & square:

Yes, I am coping well with the result; why do you ask?
#CANvENG | #RWC2025
Not all fairytales have happy endings...
In the home of rugby, up against a titanic England side, our ladies come up short.
Still, they had a phenomenal tournament, and the world now knows how great they are.
Canada loves this team! π¨π¦β€οΈπ¨π¦β€οΈπ¨π¦
Full time: 13-33

After 40, England are in full control.
Forcing Canada into playing THEIR game, and leading by 3 tries to 1.
The difference between a fully professional outfit, and one that had to crowdsource to get this far.
40 more to go.
Halftime: 8-21

10 mins in, and tries to both teams.
England gets their conversion.
For the first time in this tournament, Canada is behind.

Remember - if in doubt, sit them out!
For Rowan.

Another fantastic video by @squidgerugby.bsky.social, on how amazing this Canadian team is, and how they were able to shut down the Black Ferns in the Women's Rugby World Cup semi-final:

Due to the timing of today's semi-final match, there will be no live updates during this game.
We'll all be too focused on the game, anyway.
NEW EPISODE ALERT!
Canada's Women were ruthless in their WRWC QF against Australia, while Canada's men were shown ruthlessness by Fiji.
And national & provincial bodies unite for the National Growth Plan 2025-30.

An unfortunate, if predictable, result against Fiji.
Canada will now face Tonga for 3rd place next week.
