2016 World Sevens Series

[Crash]

<p>I wonder whether Mikkelson has fully recovered from his injury..?</p>
<p>I was screaming at Pulu, nearly cost us the match, guilty of rabbit in headlights stuff and sheer stupidity.</p>
<p>SBW put in a couple of big hits, and got the team out of trouble a few times, also for all the fitness levels - Kaka seems short of a gallop was blowing big time and struggled with the pace.</p>

<p>Perry Baker has the gas ...</p>

This nz team doesnt look too flash at all. 14-12 USA halftime.

[JAF]

<p>14-14 at HT between NZ and Perry Baker  :mocking:</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>So SBW off with a knee injury. NZ looking lazy ..</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Half time: NZ 14 - 14 USA</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>NZ is giving this away ...</p>

[JAF]

<p>Hasn't been NZ weekend</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>It's almost like NZ isn't even trying.</p>

[JAF]

<p>Not often do you see 4 tries by an individual against NZ 7s ... well done Baker</p>

Is that 3 missed tackles by Baker that have let the US score now

<p>I reckon they're just not good enough. Regressed immensely in the last year</p>

<p>Too much focus on Rio</p>

[Stockcar86]

Just embarrassing now

[Stargazer]

<p>Maybe they just want everyone to think NZ has regressed. Some kind of higher level Titch strategy ... #wishfulthinking</p>

<p>Baker's performance was worse than anything by Collier this season.  Apart from being a defensive liability he threw a number of terrible passes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The 2nd half was <strong>ugly</strong>.</p>

[sinclair sector]

Kurt baker , poor on defence

[Stargazer]

<p>England kicked out of the Cup, too. By Scotland, who beat them 17 - 0.</p>

[Crash]

<p>Well that quarter was a complete crock of shit.</p>
<p>I thought it didn't look like we were trying either. Lazy on defence, lacking any venom, creativity in attack.</p>
<p>I don't know what has happened to us this series. Need DJ Forbes back.</p>
<p>.</p>

[ACT Crusader]

No way Pulu starts ahead of Kaka. Kaka is a key man for us. <br><br>
Not sure what the deal was this tourney, but we got completely outplayed in that quarter final. Well done USA. <br><br>
Good win by OZ against Samoa<br><br><br>
