The Black Ferns are preparing to go all in when they face Canada in this morning's women's Rugby World Cup semi-final in Bristol

The Black Ferns are preparing to go all in when they face Canada in this morning's women's Rugby World Cup semi-final in Bristol

20 September 2025

The two sides drew 27-all when they met in May and are unbeaten throughout the tournament.

Kick off's shortly.

The Breakers have opened their new Australian Basketball League season in disappointing fashion.

They've been beaten 104-95 by the Brisbane Bullets in Auckland.

Guards Parker Jackson-Cartwright and Izaiah Brockington led the Breakers scoring, but both combined for a costly 10 turnovers.

A second half wave of tries has propelled Taranaki to a 38-24 NPC victory over Hawke's Bay in New Plymouth.

The Bulls held a narrow 7-5 advantage at the break, before scoring four tries in 25 minutes to stun the Magpies.

American sprinter Noah Lyles has won his fourth straight men's 200 metres world championship title after triumphing in the Tokyo final.
