2020 -> 2021 Olympic Sevens (Tokyo)

Michaela Blyde (says she's fine, looked maybe hurt at the end): "First of all our tackles weren't good enough. Nowhere near good enough for Olympic level, so tomorrow we'll be stepping that up, I guarantee our tackles in our warm-up tomorrow will be 10 times more intense than it was today."

Brazil have plenty of fight but Fijiana showed what they are about when they cut the errors

[Stargazer]

Great game from Fijiana, beating Brazil 41 to 5.

It's awesome how much Fijiana have improved the last few years. Next Olympics, they'll be even stronger.

@stargazer I think that loss to France woke them up

[NTA]

Okemba is a menace

[NTA]

France doing Canada pretty easily 19-0 at halftime.

Canadian Rugby has really fallen in a hole

[Stargazer]

FT: Canada 0 - 31 France

Next:
China v Japan

[NTA]

@stargazer walloped them. France looking good.

China to beat Japan handily I think

[Stargazer]

Already 14 - 0 to China.

[Stargazer]

HT: China 19 - 0 Japan

[Machpants]

China Def have the ability to go further, if the support is there until the next games

[Stargazer]

Still no score in the Australia v USA game.

[Stargazer]

Sharni Willimas the first to score.

7 - 0 Australia

Oh that's a mistake getting back to your feet. Williams once again saves us with direct running.

We seem to be avoiding ruck or contact at all times - trying to run the bigger Yanks around?

[Machpants]

@nta they certainly look knackered, both sides, but Oz looking a bit livelier

[NTA]

Jeez that ruck straight after the lineout looked like Yanks going straight off their feet. Not a lot of consistency on this.
