Invitational, provincial, local & school sevens tournaments

@Bovidae It was hard to see what exactly happened, but I didn't see any cards. To the contrary, IIRC, after the De La Salle player got injured, the game continued with a penalty to Hastings Boys. In the girls' game, the game was abandoned (it was close to full time). I'm waiting for the footage to become available on demand, so I can watch it again.

@Bovidae I just watched what happened in the Hastings Boys v De La Salle game. I didn't see (live) what happened because I just missed kick-off and it happened straight after kick-off. I assumed it was the Hastings player tackling the De La Salle player, because of where the tackle happened on the field, but in fact the injured player was one of two De La Salle tacklers, not the ball carrier. The first De La Salle player was penalised for a high tackle, hence Hastings getting the penalty. The second tackler fell akwardly (half under the tackled Hastings player). Not sure whether he hurt his neck or his head.
The player from Hamilton Girls was tackled around the shoulders; it didn't look like the tackler's arms slipped up. The tackler went to the ground first and tried to pull the ball carrier down (it looks like she held on to the ball carrier's jersey). The tackled player landed head first; she seemed to lose her balance. The ref didn't even notice her getting injured. He blew his whistle for full time and walked away.

I like the look of number 11, good physique for 7's

@Stockcar86 Poor Tyrone.
Why didn't they use the head shot from the Magpies website if they didn't have one in the sevens jersey? And why is Tiaan playing sevens? -
