Commonwealth Games - Rugby Sevens

[Stargazer]

@no-quarter said in Commonwealth Games - Rugby Sevens:

Well that was a bloody hiding. Who are the good woman's teams?

Australia, NZ, Canada. The next four in the World Series standings are not part of the Commonwealth. Then Ireland, England and Fiji.

South Africa and Kenya are not even core nations in the women's series.

@Stargazer thanks mate, love your work.

[Stargazer]

Try Gossie!

[Stargazer]

Now Portia in. This may become a massacre!

[Stargazer]

Question from Mrs SG: all BFs are wearing the same boots. Is this compulsory for tournaments like these? Or their choice? I have no idea.

[Stargazer]

Try Blyde. 17 - 0 NZ

[Stargazer]

Try Broughton after the hooter. 22 - 0 NZ. That's the half time score.

[Stockcar86]

All the NZ team so skilled, strong, and fast

[Stockcar86]

Woodman, such acceleration

[Stargazer]

Another try from Woodman! 27 - 0

[Stargazer]

Try Williams. Awesome! 36 - 0 NZ

@stargazer SA all have different boots, so I guess their choice - or just what Adidas gave them.

[Stargazer]

That step from Brazier again! Try! 41 - 0 NZ

[Stargazer]

@bones We were more thinking it might be a rule from the NZ Olympic Committee or NZR for this type of event. But maybe they just chose to wear the same boots.

[Stargazer]

Full time: Black Ferns 7s 41 - 0 South Africa 7s

[Stargazer]

The real test will be tomorrow when they play Canada. No. 3 in the current rankings behind Australia and NZ.

[Stargazer]

I haven't seen much of the CG so far; the ad breaks during 7s have been quite painless, I must say.

[Stargazer]

Fijiana looking good against Wales. Not quite the level of the top 3 nations yet, but they're improving. 12 - 0 Fiji

[Bones]

@stargazer Hilarious from the Welsh player, makes a break, no one in front or within 20 metres, runs straight into the defenders path rather than blatting it for the line.

[Stargazer]

Good win from Fijiana: 29 -7. They need those points, because they lost their first game to England (5 - 17)
