Aussie men finish 4th = good result for them
Aussie women finish 4th = levels of disbelief
What happened in the bronze playoff? Were they just not into it after losing in the SF?

It was a pretty intense game and came down to the final play. USA are pretty tough in the middle of the park.
Oz made a number of critical mistakes - eg dropped the ball on the try line for a certain 5 pointer - but USA hung around, a bit like Canada.
The emotion of the USA girls when they scored the final try to even the score was one of disbelief and jubilation. Was great to watch.

Yeah, having the USA and Canada win medals is probably good for the game. Not that Australia are likely to agree

Best medal ceremony too.

@canefan yet they closed out a tough encounter in pool play against Ireland.
Baffling
I don't need to remind you of all the times the ABs have looked near on invincible at RWCs only to fall away. I already gave you 1999...

Didn't watch it but heard the US scored a long range try on full-time to take it.
Questions about mental fortitude must be asked...
Watching the SF I couldn't believe how they fell away after looking a million bucks for most of the first half

Canada going into the halftime break having absorbed so much pressure and then that gift of a try made it a contest. By rights they should've been out of the running already.
Then unforced errors came knocking and you could see the Aussie girls tighten up.
The bronze final I think self belief may have started to gnaw at them mentally. Some uncharacteristic big errors when you need to be accurate.

Snoop Dogg's commentary on Antonie Dupont in the Olympics 7s
We definitely need Snoop Dogg alongside Nisbo for the Rugby Championship.
