1/4
Couple days to let the post game blues work its way through as I travelled back to Aotearoa🇳🇿. Professionally- can’t help but feel we could have shown more glimpses of our progression but when you are up against quality, anything short of your best makes it extremely tough.
3/4- While I feel some expectations sometimes neglected any real consideration of context, I know we all gave everything to push 3 very good sides as much as we could. Seeing a couple special moments in front of goal will be memories I’ll remember.
A lot of good discussions and learning opportunities the past year with a good group of people. Still a few things to complete ahead of me but without a doubt, a year that will impact my approach to the game, how I work and ability to connect with those around me better.

Thanks @simonmead21 @NRF_Football @Hudl for having me on the webinar last night. The analysis game has changed so much in the 9 years I have worked with NZF. Was enjoyable sharing ‘what’ we did in this space leading into the WWC23. Hopefully a couple ideas in there for others.
For those interested in the practical component in AKL with @simonmead21 find details here…hudl.zoom.us/webinar/registe…

Given it a couple days to sink in and whilst extremely gutted that this has come to an end, I am also very grateful and humbled to have been involved in such an life changing experience with this staff, these players and our whenua.
Some key reflections…
4- Aotearoa came out to support and was unrecognisable in the way they got behind the team and are continuing to support the women’s game and this WC. This is a special time in sports for this country. Keep embracing it.
