2023 World Sevens Series

@KiwiMurph That's awful. About to make his return from injury, and then getting injured again before actually playing. Must be tough to deal with setbacks like that.

[ARHS]

@KiwiMurph Bloody Hell!!!

@ARHS said in 2023 World Sevens Series:

Strange that there is nothing about the omission of Scott Curry

Yeah what's that all about. It's like he doesn't even exist...

The Sydney leg confirmed for the new SFS/Allianz Stadium.

Timing wise with Australia Day the Thursday 26th a lot of people might be taking a long weekend (the flip side is a lot of people might go away).

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph I remember this being the case a few years ago, too. It wasn't good for crowd numbers then.

[KiwiMurph]

@Stargazer Yeah the good news is with a few years away from the SFS, the new SFS being flash-bang and the location much more favourable compared to recent years for the Sydney rugby-going public (they simply won't travel out west) - they should still get solid numbers

[Stargazer]

Spain really pushed the USA in this game.
USA 15 - 14 Spain

[Stargazer]

France is destroying GB.

[KiwiMurph]

This NZ team really lacks pace - even more so than usual.

[Stargazer]

Nothing to see there. Head against shoulder. No head clash. Play on.

[Stargazer]

That's bs. There was no head contact.

Edit: different camera angle. Double head against shoulder. Correct yellow.

[KiwiMurph]

Unlucky there.

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph The only reason he got yellow and the Samoan player didn't, is the fact that the Samoan player had the ball. I know it's what the laws are now, but it just doesn't seem fair.

[Stargazer]

Come on NZ! This may be the first game of the tournament, but it's a must-win with Australia in the same pool.

[Stargazer]

Yuck. 10 - 0 to Samoa

[KiwiMurph]

So what's the deal - Laidlaw refusing to clear our dead wood? The balance seems way wrong in this squad

[Stargazer]

@KiwiMurph But are the new guys good enough to replace them? I have my doubts.

[Stargazer]

I think we can already say goodbye to the Quarter Finals. This team won't beat Australia.
