Pacific Four Series
Congrats to the New Zealand Black Ferns, the 2025 #PAC4 Champions!
#PacificFourSeries
🧵 1/3 ⤵️
A comprehensive win for the Black Ferns earlier today over the USA secured the Pacific Four series title.
SEVEN tries for Portia Woodman-Wickliffe and FOUR for Katelyn Vahaakolo set them on the way to victory.
#WomensRugby #PAC4
New Zealand vs USA 79–14
🇨🇦🇳🇿🇦🇺🇺🇸 Pacific Four Round 3 #PAC4
The Eagles where the 1st to score, then NZ got angry. Portia and Vaha'akolo have a friendly debate over who can score more tries. The conclusion: Portia won and the Black Ferns regain the title after completely dismantling the USA.
Woodman-Wickliffe gets her fourth score. New Zealand moving the ball so fast, USA can’t contain them.
If the Black Ferns can hold the USA out they will win #PAC4. They have to clear the Eagles by 25 pts to take the title back from Canada.
NZL 41 USA
HT. NZL 34 USA 14
USA scores first and it was back and forth in points for a bit. The Black Ferns have found their feet now and are starting to pull away though. Big 40 coming up.

Strewth, mate!
Canada produced a 7-try demolition of Australia, as they aim to retain their #PAC4 crown.
It all goes down to points difference between New Zealand and USA, which takes place tonight.

Australia vs Canada 7–45
🇨🇦🇳🇿🇦🇺🇺🇸 Pacific Four Round 3 #PAC4
TMO and the posts work together to stop Canada from getting a record win versus the Wallaroos. Even so, that team means serious business. The way they move the ball to create space is so beautiful. For the Aussies, bright moments, but their set pieces where atrocious
Canada round-off their Pacific Four Series campaign with a comfortable 45-7 victory over the Wallaroos in Brisbane.
All eyes on the Black Ferns tomorrow to see if they can take that #PAC4 title!
#WomensRugby
Finally a try #Wallaroos #Pac4 #AusvCan woo! Now to score 4 more!
