    Good last try that with only 6 players. Way to stick with the play by Ormond. <br><br>
    35-10. <br><br><br>

    <p>What a try ... fooled the fijians.  Expecting it to go to Senatla and Rosco Speckman enjoyed the moment.  Planned move.</p>

    <p>Scotland just beat USA to get into the final. How the fuck did New Zealand lose six tries to two to that?</p>

    <p>U know the Saffers have played in a final when they lose after time is up.  Scotland score with 20 seconds to go and from the kick-off score to win by one point.  </p>

    <p>From 26-15 to a turnaround of 26-27 in less than a few seconds.  Ouch. </p>

    I was absolutely certain that South Africa were going to win after Specman got his second try.

    <blockquote class="ipsBlockquote" data-author="No Quarter" data-cid="581858" data-time="1463976124"><p>WTF Scotland actually won something??</p></blockquote><br>They beat England 17 - 0, USA 24 - 17 and then South Africa in the final. Made even more astonishing considering their limited gameplan but they executed it extremely well.<br><br>What recent 7s game have shown is the importance of possession - retain it after you score and you're most likely to win. ON the face of it it's self evident but the score blow outs are attributable to it. Having excellent defence merely means you'll likely lose by just a score.

    <p>So....USA thump NZ. Who thump England. Who thump Fiji. Who get edged by SA. Who lose to Scotland. Who are seeded 11th for a reason and won't be going to the Olympics.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>There seem to be some questions remaining.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>One big one is: Can the "British Lions" avoid the traditional backbiting and actually forge a winning combination?</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Will Fiji tell Hayne he is an unnecessary distraction and to fuck off?   :)</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Has South Africa got sufficient reinforcements to bring in for the big tournament?</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Will they lose the bronze medal in overtime?   :fishing:</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Will Titch pick the right twelve to win it for us?</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Can Perry Baker win the gold medal?</p>
