@mikedogz Rayasi's other parent is Samoan I think.

[Bones]

@nepia yep so he's Fijian and Samoan right?

Or a New Zealander.

Who said he wasn't a NZer?

[Rapido]

Excuse my 7s ignorance, but why isn't another Fijian NZer, Koroi, there?

Koroi is nz born. For the U20s last year I recall Nareki's bio said he migrated at 3 months old!

[Stargazer]

@rapido In the media release with the team naming, it only said that he wasn't available. Possibly, it's due to Mitre 10 Cup commitments (Otago). That's why he was pulled from the squad last year, so maybe also this year. Stupid reason though. NZ rep teams should come first.

[Stargazer]

Wow, the Aussie women just lost to France in the semis!
Time for the Black Ferns v USA.

[Stargazer]

Awesome try from Michaele Blyde!
Nathan-Wong converts: 7 - 0 NZ

[Stargazer]

Try USA. The conversion is good and it's 7 all.

[Stargazer]

Oh, Woodman misses a tackle and the USA score again.
14 - 7 USA

[Stargazer]

Brilliant! Great try from Ruby Tui!

Half time: 14 - 12 USA

[Stargazer]

Length-of-the-field try from Gayle Broughton! Nathan-Wong converts.

19 - 14 NZ

[Stargazer]

Yessss, try Woodman! Converted.

26 - 14 NZ with 1 minute to go.

[Stargazer]

Try USA. but it's too late!

Full time: NZ 26 - 21 USA

The Black Ferns 7s are in the Final and will play France at 2.47 pm NZT today!

[Stargazer]

First, the All Blacks 7s v France quarter-final at 11.16am NZT.

[Stargazer]

Arggh, Ravouvou gets a yellow for a deliberate knock-on.

[Stargazer]

And France scores the first try.

7 - 0 France

[Stargazer]

Ravouvou back on.

[Stargazer]

Now Mikkelson off with a yellow for a high tackle. They're their worst enemies.

[Gunner]

@stargazer horrible start by NZ.
Ball security worse than school boy like.
Another one in the bin. Muppets

[KiwiMurph]

Haha so rubbish from nz so far.
