Gold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2x
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeess Fijians were knackered, paid for going to HK with A team IMO But great work, esp defence, by the boys. AWESOME - only golds I really cared about
-
I reckon that tackle from Curry and turnover from Mikkleson in the first 2 mins of that half was the winning of that.
-
Awesome..!,if you have asked me at the beginning of the day on our chances of both teams,I would have said our ladies were about a 95% chance and our men with this squad,maybe 65% or 70%..great double..!
-
Gee Fiji were utter shit. Good for us for them to bring that in the gold medal game.
Not a big fan of 7s, particularly without the top players, but I enjoyed that.
-
Haha - fucking awesome.
We win what, I think, are the last two golds of the Games and against the odds.
Fijians never really fired shots and we were pretty dominant. Could easily have won by an additional 10 points.
Might be the making of that men's team. Playing smart footy.

Really?
You're certainly a glass half full person SH. The Blues must be a constant disappointment to you.
I would have said Women 40%. Men 20%.

Come on. Walk down the street and most people couldn't name a Fijian 7's player.

What? I can't think of the top players missing, that's not far off our strongest squad.

And then only if they took a year off to practise 7s, it's far too specialised now for ABs 15 players to make a positive impact of a few weeks training. That's an 'amateur' era idea. 7s needs to be centralized and full time - NZ is finally getting the idea

Sounds like that ex Warriors kid had a big impact
He went of in the first half after getting illegally smahed, Regan Ware (despite hsi dropsy) most amazing on attack - defence was a team effort
