Invitational, provincial, local & school sevens tournaments

[Stargazer]

I hoped someone put the scissors in that awful haircut from Webber, but it's still there.

[Stargazer]

As frustrating as it was watching the AB7s yesterday, as frustrating it is today. Terrible handling errors.

[Stargazer]

The commentators say that Curry said in an interview yesterday that they are trying new things, new combinations, including at setpiece. Isn't it a bit late for trying new things?

Warbrick scores a try as I type this. Again no conversion; Koroi can't kick.

5 all

[Stargazer]

That's the half time score.

[Crucial]

Poor game management again. Gave away all advantage of the extra man with dumb play

[Stargazer]

Try to Clarke, then handbags. Two yellow cards, one for McGarvey-Black who overreacted to what looked like a late tackle.

Koroi again misses the conversion.

[Stargazer]

Good try from Vai. Rokolisoa converts.

FT: AB7s 17 - 5 Aussie 7s

[Stargazer]

Now: BF7s v Fijiana

[Stargazer]

Awesome attack from the BFs sees Portia Woodman go over for the 1st try.

Nathan-Wong misses the conversion. 5 - 0

[Stargazer]

BF7s showing patience in their attack and it pays off again. The hole in the Fijian defence appears and Blyde at full speed goes through it. Nathan-Wong converts.

12 - 0 BF7s

[Stargazer]

Ruby Tui playing very well; she scores a try of her own. Power.

17 - 0 BF7s

[Stargazer]

Awesome. Blyde again!
It's a pity that Nathan-Wong left her kicking boots at home. Again no conversion.

HT: BF7s 22 - 0 Fijiana

[Stargazer]

I walk away from my screen for a second, come back, and it appears Fijiana have scored.

22 - 5 BF7s

[Stargazer]

And another one!

Did the BF7s make many changes after half time?

22 - 12 BF7s

[Stargazer]

Blyde almost in again. Ankle tap stops her.
Not much later, Woodman scores another one.
Of course, Nathan-Wong misses the conversion again.

27 - 12 BF7s

[Stargazer]

Oh, Ruby Tui with blood all over her face. Literally her whole face!

FT: BF7s 27 - 12 Fijiana

Good game from the BFs, despite a little dip early in the 2nd half. Biggest point of criticism is the goal kicking.
Fijiana not bad at all.

[Stargazer]

By the looks of it, Tui got a boot in her face. Has a cut on her forehead. Hopefully no concussion.

[Bovidae]

That was the likely first choice 7 for the Black Ferns and then Broughton comes off the bench. If can't remember seeing Brazier play though.

[Stargazer]

Aussie women much better in this game, than previous games. Maybe they also finally getting close to playing their best squad?

The last round of games is a final scenario, so we'll see who plays and how it goes.

[ARHS]

Fascinating stuff. Standard for the women is very high. Whole nz squad great. Madison Levi for Oceania is an exciting find too.
But rhythm is lacking with our men. I like what Rokolisoa adds though alongside MGB. They rely hugely on Timmy Collier and NG Shiu to dominate the breakdowns. Really hope they play our top 7 in the last game else Fiji will be far too good. Big tussle for the second flier spot behind Ware. Warbrick needs more urgency to push ahead of Clarke and Molia who both need improved defensive reads.
