That law about tackling players with their feet off the ground has changed since the Lions your I see

[Stargazer]

First try of the QF goes to Ruby Tui.

[Stargazer]

Poor defence. Try Fiji.

[Stargazer]

Geez, what are they doing? Clearly missing Hirini, Woodman and Blyde.

[Stargazer]

Awesome try from Waaka! Nothing wrong with the BFs attack; defence is a problem at times.

[Stargazer]

HT: Fiji 5 - 12 NZ

[Stargazer]

Now a try to Brazier.

[Stargazer]

Try Broughton. BF7s lead 24 to 5.

[Stargazer]

FT: Fiji 10 - 24 New Zealand

The BF7s are through to the Cup semis, where they'll meet the winner of Russia v USA, so probably the USA.

The Ferns will have to play a lot better if they want to reach the Final.

The SF starts at 11.36pm.

[Bones]

Our kick off reception is fucken horrible. Just stand and watch.

[Stargazer]

Try Joe Webber!

[Stargazer]

After a try to Regan Ware, the AB7s lead 12 - 0 at half time.

They need to be more careful, because Perry Baker was close to intercepting the ball twice and there's no way they can stop him from scoring if he succeeds the next time he tries.

[Bones]

Kurt Baker really trying to bring Perry Baker into the game.

[Stargazer]

Great try saver from Joe Webber and Regan Ware.

[Jailbreak7]

Is there no-one that can straighten the attack?? Hard and direct always wins the day

[Stargazer]

It's going well. Another try to Regan Ware.

[Stargazer]

Great team try. McGarvey-Black gives it to Collier.

26 - 0 NZ

[Stargazer]

That was a good example of the commentator's curse. The commentators were saying how happy the AB7s would be with keeping the USA without points and then, in the last play, the USA score.

FT: New Zealand 26 - 5 USA

The AB7s are trough to the semis! They'll play England at 12.00am.

[Bones]

@Stargazer yeah as soon as KT said it, I cursed him and USA got the penalty, end of story.

Our attack is horrible, especially when Baker has such a bad game. No one seems to be on the same page most of the time - a playmaker will stretch the defence and create space but then have to unload to someone standing still or 10-15 metres back while the defence just drifts past him.

Luckily we're creating points from aggressive defence.

[Bovidae]

Baker is still shite......
