2020-2021 World Sevens Series

Tairakena was involved in the Ignite7 tournament.

Nuku must be rated ahead of Miller for the school girls.

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae Or they can't/won't sign a schoolgirl. Not sure how old Nuku is and whether she's still at school, but Miller is (I think). Or the position they're playing?

[Bovidae]

@Stargazer Nuku was the captain of the Condor Girls team that Miller was also in last year.

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae Yeah, last year. But will she still be at school in 2021, that's the question.

[Crucial]

Miller is only 16 (or just turned 17)
Has some school still to go.
I think Nuku has just finished school

[Bovidae]

Players can get a development contract while still at school. Jazmin Hotham did according to an article I was reading.

'The injuries I had, people think of them as career-ending': All Blacks Sevens' new recruit spent 18 months on the sidelines

In 2018, having undergone his fourth major surgery in a little over a year, Moses Leo could have been forgiven for turning his back on playing professional rugby player. Now, just three years' later, Leo is gearing up to play international sevens.

@Stargazer It would be great to see the team lists.

[Stargazer]

@OleOleOle Maybe they'll still post them. I expect to see all contracted AB7s and BF7s there, though.

There's also a tournament in Fiji this weekend (maybe a club tournament, don't know), so not sure whether the best Fijian players will be present. Maybe only NZ based Fijians? Tonga 7s haven't posted a line-up on their instagram page, but that's really their national team (I think).

Noted Leroy Carter and Dan Sinkinson added. Will watch how they go

[ploughboy]

@ARHS you would know stubbs from your cambridge days

Beaut day for the sevens. Good crowd on the bank. Kelly Brazier showing she still has long range pace.
Am flitting between grounds as my son playing next door on Bay oval. Portia Woodman scored a few tries in the battle of the NZ teams

@bovidae weird to think he's only 29, still got some years in him
