2016 World Sevens Series

[Hooroo]

<p>What's the score please?</p>

[Nepia]

<p>14-7 to NZ</p>

[antipodean]

<p>Harsh penalty - Kaka falling into that.</p>

[antipodean]

<p>Nice time to go wide and Ormond scores in the corner.</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Oh! Just found feed.  That must be the win?</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>It is saying 21 mins</p>

[antipodean]

<p>New Zealand win 19 - 14</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>NZ beat SA 19-14! Another win!</p>

[sparky]

Well done Titch and his men!!!

[Crucial]

<p>Yep SA made a hash of that last restart removing any possibility of a comeback win.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>DJ was massive in that game. He has certainly got his engine retuned as twice he tracked back to SA breakouts and made the vital steal/penalty.</p>

[RoninWC]

<p>Great effort by the NZ 7's to win that. Great defense and just how good is DJ Forbes.</p>
<p>The man just has the amazing ability to get over the ball and steal it in crucial situations.</p>
<p>Twice he did it on the NZ line when things were looking a little dire.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Anyone know why Regan Ware wasn't playing in this tournament?</p>
<p>He really impressed me in both the Wellington and Sydney tournaments!</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Good enough for a Halberg?</p>

<p>Well they didn't lose a game, that is a big part of the criteria ;)</p>

[RoninWC]

<p>My bad, yes he was. Thanks Crucial.</p>
<p>Just didn't get much of a run.</p>
<p>I thought he had a huge impact when he came on in both Sydney and Wellington but seemed underused for most of this tournament.</p>

[Milk]

<p>I thought Messam had a good game. Looks trimmed down</p>

[Nepia]

<p>Was a weird game of 7s to watch with both teams kicking for territory at times - the game of 7s really has developed differently in the past couple of years. NZ basically play a 15s style now, of making contact, setting rucks if need be then going again.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I was hurling abuse at Baker when he kicked down field, then the Saffas kicked it back  :ireful: - Cullen would have scored even more tries if the opposition kicked to him back in the day.</p>

[Milk]

<p>Has anyone mentioned that crazy passes stat?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>South Africa passed the ball less than 10 times in the entire game. (the count was about 7 passes in the closing minutes, compared to around 50 for NZ)</p>

[taniwharugby]

<p>NZ certainly look to be building nicely with an eye firmly on Rio me thinks, then when you consider some of the players to come back as well (Ioanes, Savea, SBW) is Curry and another? is still injured?</p>
