Invitational, provincial, local & school sevens tournaments

@stargazer Any results from the Tailevu 7s being played up in Auckland this weekend? I got told the Wellington Fijian Flyers got rolled by the Auckland Nadi team 31-7 (or was it 31-12 - can't remember).

All I've seen from that tournament is the participating teams and the pools they're in; not even a draw, let alone an update.

[Stargazer]

Of all teams participating in the National Club 7s, I only follow Havelock North on instagram, so I can only give updates on how they're doing:

First game:
Havelock North 14- 7 Linton
(Tries to Ben Kelt, Liam Udy Johns; conversions to Trinity Neera and Sam Walton-Sexton)

Second game:
Havelock North 24-7 Otago University
(Tries to Trent Hape, Cooper Flanders, Ben Kelt, Trinity Neera; 2 conversions to Trinity Neera)

Havelock North finished 1st in their pool and will now play the Championship Quarter Finals. Don't know who they're playing against.

@Stargazer that’s a handy line up for havelock

[Stargazer]

@mikey07 Yep, a good squad, although they just lost their quarter final against Christchurch RFC (7- 22).

Good mix of young talent (Flanders, Udy-Johns) and experienced players (esp Neera, also the Paewai's). I don't know Kelt, but I understand he's originally from Wanganui.

Havelock North will now play the Plate Semi at 2.40 pm v Te Puna.

North’s Results via Instagram

Into quarters against Te Puna

[mikey07]

@Stargazer I take it Norths must of bet Te Puna in the quarters
Just saw it they won 17-7

@mikey07 Norths squad:

[Bovidae]

Which other teams made the SFs?

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae I don't know. Haven't found an account on Twitter, FB or Instagram that gives all the scores. I only follow a few of the participating clubs.

@mikey07 Norths squad:

I was going to paste the squad list

[Stargazer]

Havelock North beat Te Puna 29 to 5 in the Plate Semi.
(Tries to Ben Kelt 2, Kalin Paewai, Trent Hape, Liam Udy-Johns; 2 conversions to Trinity Neera)

This show how a (un)lucky draw can determine where you end up in the finals. If they'd played Te Puna first, they'd been in the Cup play-offs.

[mikey07]

@Bovidae North’s are playing Christchurch FC atm no score updates yet.

[Stargazer]

Norths win 26 - 12 v Chch FC.

[Stargazer]

Havelock North plays Otago Uni (again) in the Plate Final at 4.20pm.

[Stargazer]

@mikey07 From their insta stories.
