Centre Waaka scores three of Kiwi Ferns’ seven tries
A Stacey Waaka hat-trick has helped secure New Zealand their place in the Women’s Rugby League World Cup final.
The Kiwi Ferns were rarely threatened in their 32-0 victory over an inexperienced Fetu Samoa in Newcastle, running away with it late with four tries in the final 12 minutes on Saturday afternoon. The dual international Waaka made the most of her opportunities, setting up New Zealand’s early first try, before securing three of her own. With her hat-trick, Waaka drew level with Australia winger Jaime Chapman atop the tournament’s try-scoring tally with nine.
