Conv to tie

[booboo]

Oops. Took too long

[booboo]

NZ win.

How bizarre

[Bovidae]

The NZ players weren't in any hurry to get out of his way, so I think the French are unlucky. No guarantee the conversion is successful though.

NZT

[Stargazer]

Yussssssssss, Rokolisoa scores the first try, after a mistake from Fiji.

7 - 0 AB7s

[Stargazer]

Collier scores NZ's second in the corner!

12 - 0 AB7s

[Stargazer]

Almost a third try, but Dickson knocks the ball on in the tackle.

[Stargazer]

AB7s defending very aggressively.

[Stargazer]

Fiji not getting anywhere with that NZ defence. AB7s are keeping them in their own half.

[Stargazer]

The AB7s should have kicked the ball out. Two minutes into extra time, and Fiji scores!

HT: AB7s 12 - 7 Fiji

[Stargazer]

Fiji scores again. A few missed tackles.
12 - 14 Fiji

[Stargazer]

Regan Ware is the next to score. Great team try.

17 - 14 AB7s

[Stargazer]

Fiji scores again. Messy passage of play.

17 - 19 Fiji

Time's almost up.

[Stargazer]

Fiji go through to the Final.
I'd love to see the final minute again. I think a NZ player was tackled without the ball.

FT: AB7s 17 - 19 Fiji

[Stargazer]

There was also a moment in the 2nd half where NZ had won a penalty and a Fijian player kicked or threw the ball away, making it impossible for NZ to take a quick tap. Curry was quite angry but the ref didn't do anything. In other games, that would have been a yellow card.

Anyway, it's over. Going for bronze against Samoa at 3.29am.
The Series win and Olympic qualification are already in the bag.
