    Not sure Mikkelson will play the QF. He got injured during the game; no idea how badly. He was replaced, but that may have been precautionary.

    Hilarious. I had just written that Fiji had pulled off a victory and as I lookup to press Submit, Kenya pulls it off.

    Rolling maul by NZ 7s off a line-out. Applying some XV game. Worked well. 10-7 to NZ HT

    All I'll say is don't give the ball back to Fiji with 1 second to go in the match ... they will move it up the field and score.

    Well done Fiji.

    How frustrating is this NZ team? Fiji gave them two or three chances to close out the game, either by scoring or holding on to the ball, but they didn't have the smarts to take them.

    USA are pumped up and playing well for well for their home tournament. They will probably play Fiji in SF. Should be interesting.

    Yeah, that's the AB7s story for the last few years. I do think they have improved from last year, but just not enough.

    Joubert decided that. Ref's really get shown up in sevens.

    Nope. Inexperienced 7s players get shown up.

    So 1992 ...

    ... the mighty Eden scored a 50m rolling maul try in a sevens tournament in Hawaii on piss trip. Admittedly opposition were Yokohama Country and Athletic Club consisting of a bunch of pasty pommie expats and very small Japanese people, and we only had 2 backs on tour ...
