Hamilton 7s

That was quick! First NZ try, nine seconds

[Machpants]

28-0 half time, 2:30 left and Canada only scored second half 28-10

[Machpants]

NZ Sevens add another three after Canada's two, FT 49-10

[Machpants]

Worked hard for it but finished off Spain for 24-0, Scott Curry on crutches from warm up (FFS another injury). Nareki had a good last few minutes, nice try and a couple of smashing hits!

[Higgins]

One thing that is becoming more nd more noticeable is the vast improvement in the success rate of conversions. gone are the days that if the try was scored more than about five metres to the side of the posts it was almost futile taking the kick. We are now seeing side line conversions happening with increasing frequency and most kick within the 15 metre lines are now almost certain successes, England's miss from in front against Samoa notwithstanding

How was that YC not a penalty try?

[Siam]

@booboo made me wonder if the penalty try extra had been removed from 7s

Nice lineout steal. 15 nil on the break. Kick to come ... makes it 17 zip.

[Siam]

[booboo]

[booboo]

Mikkelsen. Still got it. 22-5

[booboo]

Nice pass, seemingly loosw to Collier, who breaks wwll.

Kick good. 24 5

[booboo]

Longbottom clattered!

[booboo]

Great ruck work by NZ, but need to work on some loose handling

[booboo]

Try Aussie. 24-10. Wide out so conv misses

[Machpants]

Yeah or work at the ruck has been what keeps us winning, best on the circuit. Problem is teams like Fiji just never go to a ruck!

[booboo]

2nd consolation try 24-17 final score.

[Yeahtheboys]

New Zealand are doing well for 5v9. Rovovou and koroi playing for USA
