Ellie Kildunne tracked down like that (especially when she has a
head start). Also, Heather Cowell seems to have lost a yard or
two of pace. Interestingly, Heather finished the Ireland game in
the front row.

One of Kildunne's comments in her RugbyPass interview was that
she's had to adapt to not being the fastest player in the squad
or on the pitch. I guess full time 7s players can train more for
outright sprint speed, whereas a 15s player has to have more
long distance endurance. She's still got an impressive eye for a
gap and acceleration, though - she just needs some speedsters on
her shoulder to pass to.
GB were badly burned whenever the Aussies managed to get outside
their defence, because they just didn't have the outright pace
to close a gap. That might be fixable given more time as a
squad.

Looks like GB are playing Ireland for 7th place.

Don’t you mean Team GB? Or have the Welsh and Scots women been
exempted from playing against their Celtic cousins?
