    Time over. Comms thought there should be a restart. Ref had other ideas

    Did Fiji need to take that conversion?

    Apparently they could have opted not to take, had a restart instead

    Wow. Awesome from an inexperienced nz team. Carter is amazing. Huge efforts from Nicole and Collier too and Cody Vai is a huge prospect.

    I can't believe we hadn't won since 2014. Great final

    That first half by NZ was absolutely brilliant.

    Collier and Molia were sensational.

    Carter is an incredible 7s player.

    What a pair of 7s finals.

    How good.

    Fiji came back hard, we managed to hold out. Defence was superb. Brilliant to do the double

    The men's team looked to have huge potential last year - been realised.

    @Victor-Meldrew Well done to get the double in Hong Kong it is one of the real glamour events of the Worlds Sevens Series, been going since 1976.

    It’s been a bit of a graveyard for us.

    That was an intense stuff for both finals. I love how both us and the Aussie women play. Tough relentless styles with speed.

    Loved Ruby Tui in the commentators box. Added something real.

    The men’s second half was crazy. Fiji hands are amazing. They seem to be able to pick up the uncatchable passes. But I loved our pressure and the fact that when Carter is in the play we always look threatening.

    Between these games and the Warriors, my heart is shot.

    @Stargazer so the BF7s only need 5 points from the final round to claim the series championship?

    @canefan Yes. They have to finish 7th or higher in Toulouse.

    She was great. Rikki Swannell was good too - easily the best of the commentators.

    Haven't sat down and watched a 7's for some time and really enjoyed this one - some great tries, moments and pure drama.

    Women's game was a cracker with the result in doubt to the end. Men had to hold out in defence after some quick first half scoring. Men were helped by Fiji having an extra time nail biter against GB (a really good game) which must have sapped them a little.

    @Crucial that GB v Fiji game was excellent. That Welsh guy on the wing has some real gas and he’s a fair sized unit too.
