2018-2019 World Sevens Series

[Stargazer]

Haha, the American coach sounds a bit angry!

[Stargazer]

Brazier scores her 3rd try. Apparently, that's her first career hat-trick.

BFs lead 26 - 5.

[Stargazer]

USA have scored in the last minute, but obviously, that was only a consolation try.

FT: NZ 26 - 12 USA

The final will be again France or Australia.

[Steven Harris]

Thanks for keeping us posted..!

[Stargazer]

Australia beat France in the other semi (26 - 19).

So the Final is:

Black Ferns v Australia
Kick-off at 11.18am NZT.

[Stargazer]

@Steven-Harris Was just able to watch that before leaving home. Will postpone my coffee break until the Final!

[Stargazer]

The finals are televised on Sky Pop-up 1 in NZ.

[Stargazer]

Wow, Williams absolutely smashed in a tackle from Ellia Green.

And now Green scores at the other side of the field.

5 - 0 Aussie

[Stargazer]

Awesome try from Sarah Hirini! Great pass from Nathan-Wong, who converts the try.

7 - 5 NZ

[Stargazer]

Same kind of (delayed) pass from Nathan-Wong now puts Williams under the sticks!

14 - 5 NZ

[Stargazer]

Tonegato scores after the half time hooter.

HT: NZ 14 - 10 AUS

[Stargazer]

Now an awesome try from Nathan-Wong. She deserved that one!

21 - 10 NZ

[Stargazer]

Haha, almost handbags here. Don't see that often in a women's game.

[Stargazer]

Damn. Green scores. Terrible hospital pass from Williams.

21 - 17 NZ

[Stargazer]

Contentious refereeing decision leads to a NZ scrum and Brazier kicks it out.

I don't care, New Zealand win another title!

Full time: NZ 21 - 17 AUS

If I heard it correctly, the Black Ferns 7s apparently have now equalled their own record of winning 4 tournament in one Series.

Going from your good commentary, it sounds as though Nathan-Wong was WOM? Two assists and a try?

[Stargazer]

@Hooroo Yeah, I think she was the best in the final, although Tui and Hirini were very good, too.

[Stargazer]

And it's confirmed: the Black Ferns 7s are the first women's team to qualify for next year's Olympics (apart from the host country, of course)!

[Machpants]

The girls need to give the boys some lessons!
