    The Men's Black Sticks' horrid form continues - this time a 6-1 thumping by Great Britain in Christchurch

    The Men's Black Sticks' horrid form continues - this time a 6-1 thumping by Great Britain in Christchurch


    The result keeps them rooted to the bottom of the FIH Pro League table - with no wins from the seven games played.

    Captain Dane Lett told Spark Sport they just weren't good enough from the first whistle.



    The Black Sticks next play Australia in Christchurch on Sunday at 2pm.
