“I couldn’t think of a better way, to be honest, to end my career. Winning a World Cup on home turf in a final at Eden Park – that’d be a pretty awesome way to finish my career. It’s been pretty unreal, and I’ve achieved a lot of things I never, ever expected to.” – Kendra Cocksedge 
“You’ve got to pinch yourself. Just playing at Eden Park alone will be huge. It’s every Kiwi athlete’s dream. The thought of playing in front of 55,000 in your own country, you can’t even put it into words how it will feel. It would be incredibly special.” – CJ Bott
