2017-18 World Sevens Series

@justanotherfan NZ will play the winner of Australia v England in the semi at 1.41am.

[Stargazer]

The other Cup SF is between South Africa and Fiji at 1.19am. We're lucky not to play those teams in the semi.
The Aussies have already lost a pool game v Fiji and England only narrowly beat France that lost to Spain.

[Gunner]

The NZRU and ERFU (refuse to call them just RFU, arrogant fucks) must be using the same jersey designer.

[Stargazer]

And England will be our opponent in the semis.
Full time: England 26 - 19 Australia

[Higgins]

The New Zealand 7s were very fortunate to progress into the semifinals. The prospects of getting dealt to by England is not exactly a comforting thought as I head off to get some much sought after sleep.

[Stargazer]

Australia beats Kenya 19 to 12 and will play for 5th place.

Blitzbokke vs Fiji. Game I have been waiting for.

[JustAnotherFan]

Blitzbokke 12 - Fiji 0 HT

[Bones]

Game being nicely controlled by SA but interesting to see all high shots and late hits by SA being ignored.

[Tordah]

Kwagga Smith is almost as good a player as his face is ugly. I think I mean that as a compliment

[Stargazer]

South Africa wins the first semi-final by 12 to 7.

Motherfucker Islanders also play dirty. Or do did you miss the QF today.

[Stargazer]

Defence is really still a problem for the AB7s. Good try England.

Super classy stuff. Bloody South Sea islanders eh?

[Bones]

God Joubert is a poor 7s ref. The English player off his feet playing the ruck ball somehow becomes a NZ knock on.

Yeah, when he played against the All Blacks they gave him the Man of the Match award ... it wasn't a beauty competition.

[Stargazer]

Ravouvou scores and the try is converted. NZ has a small lead: 7-5

I guess you missed the high tackle and also after a try was scored a tackler pushed a scorer over the HSRC advertiser board.

[Stargazer]

Another try to Ravouvou! Wow.

[Stargazer]

@justanotherfan I think you missed the point of @Bones comment.
