    Less than a minute played in the Tonga v Samoa game, and already a Tongan player sent off with a yellow. I know they're not a core nation and have little experience, but if they want to become a core nation, they really need to work hard on their discipline.

      England take Bronze v Fiji.

      Score a little flattering to Fiji with a late try.

              Rauvouvou - two touches, two errors.

              Baker making a dick of himself.

              Isles really suffers from small man syndrome too.

              21 - 5 to the good guys.

                @Unite totally agree about Baker,what an idiot..no need for that sort of crap..as for Ravouvou...why is he even in this squad..?just an absolute liability ,stocked for Scott Gregory, this kid is going to be a star in the fifteens game..still eligible for NZ20s this year.

                      He's looking awesome at 7s so far. What position in XVs?

                          Midfield back/outside back I believe.

                            As much of a dick as Baker is, I actually don't mind him acting up against this USA team, who have a couple of dickish players themselves (that's two weeks in a row Isles has lost the plot and played shit). I didn't notice Baker acting up against other teams and was pleasantly surprised - plus his experience really showed through this weekend.

                              Good win though.

                              AB7s looking really good this year. Have looked strong and assured, even in tournaments they've lost, but especially this one.

                              Really liked the way they took on Fiji. No hanging back looking for gaps, allowing the Fiji D to crowd them, just running straight and hard and pushing them onto the back foot.

                              Much good.

                                @booboo Agree with Kiwi Murph,midfield 12 or 13,spoke to Rene Ranger about at the end of the Mitre season about Gregory,.reckons he’s very strong and deceptively quick but will have work on his communication..having met Scott,real down to earth kid.

                                    @Bones yeah something was up. Sam Dickson was pretty fired up too. Bakers backslap deserved a smack in the mouth (to use the old parlance)
                                    Good win.

                                      Both the Kiwi mens and womens sides looked a cut above on fitness this weekend. That played into good results when the heat (literally) came on in the final day.

                                      However:

                                          @Bones yeah something was up. Sam Dickson was pretty fired up too. Bakers backslap deserved a smack in the mouth (to use the old parlance)
                                          Good win.

                                          Thought Barrett was within his rights to do that. Dickson was pissing around.
