    Dame Noeline Taurua admits some of her players went off-script in the final match against the Aotearoa Men

    Dame Noeline Taurua admits some of her players went off-script in the final match against the Aotearoa Men


    The Silver Ferns were beaten 57-53 in the dead-rubber in Wellington.

    The men were strong on both attack and defence and won the first three quarters - setting them up for victory.

    Taurua says not everyone is sticking to the strategy.
