Kiwis crush Wallaroos in women's rugby

The Black Ferns have defeated the Wallaroos 44-17 in their rugby union clash in Christchurch.

The Black Ferns have crushed the Wallaroos, crushing them 44-17 to retain rugby's Laurie O'Reilly Trophy in Christchurch.

The Glenn Moore-coached outfit were far too good for their trans-Tasman rivals, running in eight tries to three after securing a 34-5 halftime lead.

Star fullback Selica Winiata and Portia Woodman both nabbed doubles, while Toka Natua, Charmaine Smith and halfback Kendra Cocksedge also scored.

However the Ferns were only able to notch two from eight conversions in dreadful conditions.
