Gold will be the ultimate goodbye for the Blitsbok coach going to the Sharks.

[Stargazer]

Yessss, try to Blyde!

[Stargazer]

5 - 0 NZ

[Stargazer]

I hoped the BF7s would score more tries while Canada had a player in the bin. Canada back to 7 players now.

[Stargazer]

Haha, the BF7s are playing as if they have plane to catch. So fast. Try Brazier.

Nathan-Wong converts.

12 - 0 BF7s

[Stargazer]

Canada making so many mistakes. Throwing the ball into touch, dropping the ball. BF7s line-speed is great!

HT: BF7s 12 - 0 Canada

[Stargazer]

Great speed from Saili. Try time.
Pouri-Lane converts.

19 - 0 BF7s

[Stargazer]

Canada scores a similar try at the other end. Nice ankle tap from Hotham, but the Canadian still able to score.

19 - 7 BF7s

[Stargazer]

Holy shit. Canada score another one. There will be a restart.

19 - 12 BF7s

[Stargazer]

Time's up. The BF7s win bronze. Not the colour they, and we all, hoped for, but it's still a medal!

FT: BF7s 19 - 12 Canada

@NTA said in Commonwealth Games (2022) - all sports, except Sevens:

On the long hair thing: tbh it is like jumping into a tackle for me i.e. if you leave your hair out, you're asking for an infringement.

You're reducing the tackle area through an unskilled means. Mens or womens - put it up.

Agree. It would have been a huge ballsy call for a PT. We know that Portia would have likely scored but the ref can’t take the abilities of the player into account.

[Stargazer]

Now the men! C'mon, get another one.

[Stargazer]

Yuss, Leroy Carter scores the first try.

7 - 0 AB7s

[Stargazer]

Geez ref, swallow your whistle.

Australia scores. Good step from the Kiwi Aussie.

7 all

[Stargazer]

The number of handling errors is terrible.

[Stargazer]

Speeeeeeeeeeeeeed! Moses Leo scores! Joe Webber started that.

HT: AB7s 14 - 7 Aussie7s

[MiketheSnow]

Ref is an Aberdare boy (Abercynon)

Youngster

He’ll be a top ref in 15s before too long

Fast as fuck too

[Stargazer]

And another one from Moses Leo!

21 - 7 AB7s

[Stargazer]

Carter scores another one. I thought he wasn't going to make it, but he just had to stretch his arm for that try.

26 - 7 AB7s
