BF7s seem to be playing all their games half asleep. Something's not right. They don't seem happy.
Something going on ay. One of the great things about watching the "sevens sisters" was how much fun they had. Seemed to be missing. Maybe they are missing Bunting but he has been gone for a while. Could be just first tournie blues before they bond again. Who knows.
Was nice to watch some rugby (of sorts) without some twat intervening and saying that we need to check some trivia from yesterday and disallow the try, or overturn some scintillating passage of play. For the most part if someone got the ball over the line, the team got some points.
6 on 7 is still a long two minute watch though.

Womens final day highlights:
Room for optimism given how easily they gave up tries with some woeful individual defence.
Not sure what the ref saw at the end. Looked like a legit tackle on Portia who releases, gets up and is clearly tackled from an offside player.
-
@antipodean how were they offside?

@antipodean how were they offside?
There's an offside line at the tackle now. Thanks to the Italy vs England fiasco. Once offside there's only a few ways to be onside, none of which eventuated.

@antipodean huh I had no idea.

@Bones Sky NZ aren't even showing the NZ game.
Probably a good thing. Wearing white and playing like we surrender. Canada leading 14-7 at halftime.
Lots of stupid offloads and disorganised play.

How the fuck is that a YC? These refs hate rugby.
