2020 -> 2021 Olympic Sevens (Tokyo)

[NTA]

@mikethesnow I'm looking at some of these calls and wondering how these refs got a gig

[MiketheSnow]

WTF ref

Horta fucked up that quick tap

[Machpants]

Score ? you buggers

[MiketheSnow]

This ref has been paid off

[MiketheSnow]

France 19-5 China

[NTA]

That was NOT a knock on

Oh and the French girl is allowed to trap it between her legs as the Chinese girl has her hands on it.

Who the fuck is this ref? This is the worst yet

[NTA]

Another wrong call in France's favour

[MiketheSnow]

I’m really enjoying the Women’s competition except for one thing

The constant screeching

[MiketheSnow]

Brilliant from 6 and 3

[ACT Crusader]

What a try by China!

After yet another shit ruck call by the ref. Should have been a penalty against France based on her treatment of China this game

[MiketheSnow]

China can feel very hard done by

France 24-10 China

I’m glad we’re meeting France to be honest

As long as we don’t get the French ref 😉

[NTA]

Just let her take it 2m from the mark, ref.

OMG it didn't effect the result but any assessor would be flabbergasted

I can't be bothered watching it because of that but from the few times I have watched momentarily it seems that they have women referees doing the womens matches. Could it be that the female refs are being selected to adjudicate because of their gender rather than their competence? I suppose you could say the same about the male refs in this particular tournament too!!!!!

Japan v Brazil is a good game.

Currently Brazil 14-12 with 3 to go

[NTA]

Brazil score again. 21-12 to Brazil and that will be the final score as Brazil suffocate the last Japan attack

[NTA]

Canada v Kenya

This should be a thrashing

[NTA]

Closer than I thought - Canada's discipline not great but they scrum well enough at the whistle to get into the sheds 12-5.

You can tell the teams with experience: they look to cut in from the outside decisively, where the newbies run laterally and telegraph it
