2023 World Sevens Series

[Stargazer]

FT: New Zealand 0 - 24 Samoa

[ARHS]

Moses Leo was a candidate for worst ever performance by a kiwi in a sevens match. His early missed tackles really took the pressure of Samoa before the card. He has pace but all round game has always been a bit too loose.
Strange call to start with some of our strongest players on the bench against Samoa.

[ACT Crusader]

How bad was McGarvey-Black. Blew a 3 on 1 overlap in the first half and then just made dumb decisions thereafter.

[Stargazer]

Earlier this evening, the AB7s beat Hong Kong 38 - 14.

For perspective:
The Aussies beat Hong Kong 43 - 0.

BUT

The Aussies also lost to Samoa!!! (17 - 22)

So suddenly, this NZ v Aussie match is really important. Kick-off 11.03pm.

[Stargazer]

Come on guys. A big game, please. Aussies favourites though.

[Stargazer]

Bloody hell. That Aussie try was way too easy. Ughh.

[Steven Harris]

Awful lazy defence , anybody could see that cut coming

[Steven Harris]

Good hit back ,Leo showing some pace

[Stargazer]

That's the best possible answer. Great team try, Moses Leo.

[Steven Harris]

Dreadful from Molia was no need to commit to that ruck

[Stargazer]

Again, The stupidity is mind-boggling. How do you leave that side open?

[Stargazer]

Okay, I call it now. We'll lose this one, too. Out of the Cup.

Give this team three legs of the Series and if they don't improve. Start culling and bring in development players.

[Steven Harris]

We dont appear to have anywhere the X Factor Aussie have , little alone the pace , can only see this going one way

[Stargazer]

@Steven-Harris We look incredibly slow. Snail's pace compared to the Aussies and Samoans.

[Stargazer]

HT: Australia 17 - 7 NZ

[Stargazer]

That intercept try. Errrrr

[Steven Harris]

@Stargazer yep , if it was’nt for the god damn fireworks i would have already set the clock and gone to bed

[Stargazer]

@Steven-Harris Yep, I'll need my ear plugs, too.

[Stargazer]

Geez, Moses Leo, what was that?

[Steven Harris]

@Stargazer cant wait until they ban the bloody things , thank god for the Ferns
