          Wow, awful performance. Like we'd never played 7s before, some really dumb stuff. Ormond you fucking idiot.

            This could be a real sad end to Titch's career - they looked atrocious.

              Handling errors from over half the team and our 2 set moves were just to hit a crash ball runner. Then give it to the most inexperienced guy to try and finish.

                  Yes, top 2 of each pool + 2 extras (I guess on points diff? or repechage?). Need to thrash Kenya and ideally beat GB.</p>

                    Ok, that's good news that we need to flush and move on. <br><br>
                    Not a great start though

                        Joubert is having a fucking laugh. He's having a worse game than NZ.

                              Makes me weep with shame and anger to see the All Blacks 7s lose to Japan. They must redeem themselves by being awesome the rest of the tournament.

                                What is worse ... Boks losing to Japan at RWC or All Black 7s losing to Japan in Olympics? Ask big mouth Bones.

                                  <p>I don't see this AB Sevens team winning a medal. They looked pedestrian, unimaginative and made basic errors. Fiji were the most impressive of all the nations so far, with GB, France and SA not very far behind. Aussies were even worse than the AB.</p>
