I've liked both of these teams' efforts, so it should be a good game. Canada to win but Brazil to get more than 1 try.

Both side have gone at their opponents so far with aggression and positivity, but Canada's greater experience has to be a major factor.

I didn't see Brazil v PNG but I did see them against England and I thought their effort was commendable. I haven't seen either of Canada's games, but they probably have a bit of extra quality and certainly extra experience. It could well be the most competitive games in the women's tournament so far though (until England v PNG which I think will also be quite hard fought). Canada by 18

Boom! 6-0 Brazil, and a prop's union lifetime membership for Amaral for a pick and drive try from dummy half.

I wish Graf wouldn't drop into the pocket RU style for the kicks

Canada try, 4-6

With a bit more composure and experience Brazil would be a couple of scores up.

Canada do it and of course, they end up offside...

Currently Canada 10:6 Brazil on 35 minutes and, while the quality's not the highest, it is a very close contest.

Two countries that might arrange more fixtures between them in future?

A great interception to level the scores, as Santini goes pretty much the whole length of the field.

10 all.

Coming up to the hour, and Pakulis gets the VR decision for a Canada try.

Franada adds the conversion to make it 16:10.

Only started watching for the second half but it’s like watching two yawnion sides playing league. There’s no structure to speak of, it’s one-out, or simple hands.

I hope come 2025 the coaching improves. 

Brazil's first RWC and Canada's second. Several Brazilian players originating from neither Rugby code. We can't expect miracles. But a close game is welcome.
