    That was a pretty good comeback. The 2 guys who did idiotic things to get yellowed both came back on and scored immediately. A bit of a "sorry guys, I'll fix this".

    Men's results thus far:

    0_1512118417537_c1d12695-1858-45ed-bdb2-e63cc56857a7-image.png

    .

    Some really interesting scores, esp USA losing two games (Arg & Samoa), Scotland defeating France, and Kenya beating Canada.

    The Aussies have beaten Russia 47 to nil.

    There has been a bit of a hype around that new Aussie player, Maurice Longbottom, and from the little bit I've seen in this game, he indeed looks good.

    Scotland beating France no real surprise. The Scots are pretty good these days - they won the London event last series at Twickenham, so are actually the last winners.

    Kenya can beat anyone on their day and sevens can be a bit fickle in general.

    First try of the game was scored by Molia, after an insane offload from Ravouvou.
    Isles responded with a try for the USA.
    Ravouvou almost scored a try of his own but was tackled just before the try line; he could pass to Molia, however, who scored his second.
    Discipline is a bit of an issue for the Kiwis.

    Half time: NZ 12 - 5 USA

    Great try from Ravouvou. What a fend on Isles!

    Again not converted. Goal kicking is really a work-on.

    17-12 NZ

    Try Regan Ware! That passage of play looked really good!

    NZ now lead 22 - 12. Time's almost up.

    Full time: NZ 22 -12 USA.

    The AB7s win their third pool game as well and top their pool.
    The team has definitely improved since last year; in a few months, the new coach seems to have already put his stamp on the squad. There's hope!

    Also, CBC have the rights for Sevens coverage in Canada, and are doing full streams for both men's and women's tournaments on the web and via the CBC Sport app.

    I'm sure a bit of IT wizardry could sort you out if you need ....
