2022 World Sevens Series

[Stargazer]

Vai scores in the corner. Really, he should have tried to score closer to the posts, even just a few metres. Not converted.

19 - 10 Fiji

[Stargazer]

That's more like it! Try Collier.
The conversion is good.

19 - 17 Fiji

[Stargazer]

Rokolisoa! That was awesome. Try time!

The conversion is good.

AB7s now lead 22 - 19 with 90 secs to play.

[Stargazer]

Try Fiji?

[Stargazer]

Looked like a knock on.

[Stargazer]

He knocked it on! No try.

[Stargazer]

One minute to go. NZ scrum on NZ 5m.

[Stargazer]

It's a pity Tangitau knocked the ball on. If he hadn't, it would have been a certain try and game over.

[ACT Crusader]

What a win.

Great steal at the end

[Stargazer]

Yesssssssssssss, from 19 - 5 down, the AB7s win 22 - 19!

We're in the Cup Final!!!

[Stargazer]

@ACT-Crusader After that terrible first half, I didn't see this coming! Really good 2nd half!

Final against Australia or Samoa!

Loads of youngsters in this squad and, boy, they have some ticker and self-belief.

Oz controlling the play so far and playing good footy.

[Stargazer]

@Victor-Meldrew I really like Kitiona Vai. The most talented of the newbies, IMO. Rokolisoa the best of the lot though.

[ACT Crusader]

Paterson just broke a couple of Samoan ankles!

Brilliant individual run.

The old guys - Joe Webber & Dylan Collier - were exceptional in that game too. Experience really showed.

[Stargazer]

@Victor-Meldrew Webber wasn't good in the first half. Made up for it in the second. Collier was indeed good.

[ACT Crusader]

Looks like we will play the Aussies, who look very sharp and disciplined

[Stargazer]

It only just now occurs to me that of the top 6 teams, 5 are from the SH.

Fifth place play-off is between South Africa and Ireland.

Bronze final between Fiji and Samoa.

And the Final between NZ and Australia.

[Stargazer]

So it's NZ v Australia Cup Final!

Kick-off 4:58am.

Replays of the finals from 10:30am on Prime.
