Awful jersey clash in the men's game. NZ wearing black (obviously); Fiji mostly black with some white (making it look dark grey).

It’s not hard NZ=black, Fiji=white, Oz=yellow, baabaas=red

[Stargazer]

@machpants Yeah, you'd think so. Don't know why they make it so hard. :man_shrugging_light_skin_tone:

[Stargazer]

That was a great pass from Baker to Rush.

[Stargazer]

Vai showing why he's a good prospect.

It's great to finally see some of the newbies play.

Awesome weather in Fiji! :face_with_tears_of_joy:

Pouring rain. Hot. Maybe they'll get some thunder with that, too.

Edit: the field is so wet that the ball doesn't bounce anymore.

What was the score in the womens game?

[Stargazer]

@bovidae 14 - 12 to the BFs.

BFs missing lots of players due to Aupiki.

Was Niall Williams back? Aust didn't send a team - a shame.

[Stargazer]

@bovidae I only saw the last bit of the BFs game; can't remember seeing Williams.

The Aussie women played trial games against the USA in LA, earlier this week.

Interesting score. The Aussie team has both newbies and experienced players (team naming).

[Bovidae]

The Fijian women ref in game 2 is making some interesting calls. Not favouring one team over the other but I'm not seeing what she has.

[Bovidae]

Fijiana win 10-0. Still lots of surface water on the field.

[Stargazer]

First impressions of some of the new men - Vai, Tangitau, Carter - are good, but a tournament like this doesn't give the complete picture. Really keen to see how they go in the World Series.

[Bovidae]

Terrible conditions for sevens. NZ beat Aust 26-12 in the mens. Gave up a soft try on FT.

[Stargazer]

Men: NZ 26 - 12 Oz

Next game is at 6.00pm:

I really hope the state of the field is not going to lead to injuries.
