2018-2019 World Sevens Series

[Higgins]

England scrape by South Africa. Hopefully JAF will surface to give us his observations of the match as I missed it.

[Stargazer]

HT: NZ 14 - 0 Scotland. The AB7s were very patient, just waiting for their opportunities. Smart play. Some bad passes, some brilliant pick ups, like the one that lead to the last try.

[Bones]

McGarvey-Black looks to have gained a more solid frame in the "off" season.

NZ playing a pretty simple game so far, power game.

[Stargazer]

I knew Koroi had been brought into the squad due to an injury to Nareki, but Aminasi Nicole (sp) is playing, too and I don't see Curry and Dickson.

[Bones]

@stargazer curry started. This Scottish commentator is a fucken knob.

[Stargazer]

Hmmm, they shouldn't have let in that Scottish try at the end, but a good win.

FT: 21 - 7 NZ

Through to the SF.

@stargazer curry started.

Did he? I tuned in late and can't remember seeing him.
Anyway, we've far too many injuries again if they needed to call in more reinforcements.

[Stargazer]

Wow, the USA have knocked out Fiji! A very convincing win, too: 24 - 14

So the Cup semis are:

NZ v England at 1.17am
Australia v USA at 1.39am

[ACT Crusader]

That USA performance was excellent. Really physical. Fiji looked a bit clueless.

[canefan]

NZ into the final after an epic 7-5 win over England, including a goal line stand that must of lasted at least 5 minutes

[Stargazer]

Final: NZ v USA
4.29am

[Stargazer]

Geez

@stargazer That is a tough ask. Thank goodness finals aren't ten minutes each way any more!

[Stargazer]

Try Ng Shiu!

7-0 NZ

[Stargazer]

Collier should have tried to run it.

[Stargazer]

Half time: NZ 7 - 0 USA

[Stargazer]

Masirewa sent to the bin. I didn't see the reason why.

The USA benefits from having a man more. Try in the corner.

7 - 5 NZ

[Stargazer]

Try Collier under the sticks!

[Bones]

@stargazer was a high tackle.

I have to give it to Collier. He's been immense. Well done fella.

[Stargazer]

14 - 5 NZ with 1'30" to go.

USA with 8 men on the field. What's the ref going to do?
