2018 Sevens RWC

[Gunner]

Finally

[Stargazer]

Yessss, Baker scores! He converts his try and it's 7 all.

[Stargazer]

Try Ravouvou! That's more like it.

12 - 7 NZ

[Gunner]

Oh yes boy.

Chance created by the brilliant turnover by Curry.

[Stargazer]

French knock-on missed.

[Stargazer]

Now, keep possession. Time's almost up.

[Gunner]

@stargazer that would be too simple.
Hint of any early tackle though.

[Stargazer]

Yes, phew, we got away with that one.

Full time: NZ 12 - 7 France

We won't beat Fiji in the semis playing like that, unless Fiji does the same.

[Gunner]

Wins a win, will need to be several notches better against Fiji though.

[taniwharugby]

What was our first yellow for?

Man that Fijian side looked like men vs boys in their game, they were huge

[KiwiMurph]

Jeez what a game. Did well to get out of that one.

Intentional knock down.

[taniwharugby]

@kiwimurph pretty tough call then I thought?

[Stargazer]

Men's semifinal, Fiji v NZ, is tomorrow morning at 8.02am NZT.

Today, the women's final, Black Ferns 7s v France is at 2.47pm NZT.

[Machpants]

@taniwharugby Yeah I notice that every time I see Fiji play sevens. So many, esp European, teams have gone for speed over strength. The Fijians often genuinely look like men playing a 1st 15 team, pros vs amateurs size wise. And they're still fast as, what an amazing people, it's like 7s was written for those guys. I love watching them, Harlem Globetrotters when they're on song.5

[KiwiMurph]

Awesome quarter final between USA and England.

England wins in the first 20 seconds of extra time with a fantastic kick pass try.

Quite tough given he was trying to knock it backwards not forwards, therefore it wasn't intentional.

And can we stop calling it a knock "down"? The offence is a deliberate knock forward.

[Stargazer]

That was a great try from Ellia Green. It looks like the Aussie women are going to grab bronze.

[Stargazer]

The Aussie women finish third.
Full time: USA 14 - 24 Australia

Now the Black Ferns 7s v France!

[Stargazer]

Yuss, she had to work hard for it, but Blyde scores the first try!
