2023 World Sevens Series

[Stargazer]

Ng Shiu strolls in for the first try.
7 - 0 NZ

[Stargazer]

Dickson sent to the bin. No idea what for. I didn't notice anything that warranted a card, but I may be wrong.

[Stargazer]

Haha, that was ridiculously easy. Try Carter. Do they make Swiss cheese in Canada?

[Stargazer]

14 - 0 NZ

Baker appropriately taking his time for the conversion, and now the re-start.

[Stargazer]

NZ forcing Canada to make mistakes. Second try to Ng Shiu.

HT: NZ 21 - 0 Canada

[Stargazer]

Why does Regan Ware wear the number 64 on his back? Must have a special meaning?

[Stargazer]

This ref is very quick with the whistle. Told Baker to release, but didn't even give him time to pull back his arms.

[Higgins]

A reasonable dumping tackle gets yellow carded yet a fend to the head immediately prior to that escapes caution!

[Stargazer]

And now he sends Ware to the bin. Not sure that was past the horizontal.

[Stargazer]

NZ 21 - 5 Canada with 3 minutes something to play

[ARHS]

Eat your heart out Robbie Williams. That's entertainment. Rokolisoa and Carter!

[Stargazer]

Good try Rokolisoa.

28 - 5 NZ

[Stargazer]

Now that's a real team try. Nobody wanted to score and just passed the ball to a team made. Eventually, McGarvey-Black dots down.

33 - 5 NZ

Just a bit of pushing and shoving. McGarvey-Black sees yellow. Time's up, but there's a re-start.

And now it's full time:

NZ 33 - 5 Canada

The AB7s finish 9th in the first tournament of the 2023 Series.

Flush the dunny.

6 April?

[ARHS]

They were a much better team with the energy of Ng Shiu Rokolisoa and Carter on the field. MGB and Ware were very quiet though. Played some of their best footy in the last match. But way too much niggle...

[Stargazer]

Fiji to take gold. Not even a question.
