<p>Good game by team Vs portugal, very physical and good on attack. Scrums were poor though!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Is anyone else watching the sevens?</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>Must admit that I totally forgot about the sevens!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Results thus far:</p>
<p>NZ 35 - 10 Russia</p>
<p>NZ 31 - 0 Portugal</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This is a hilarious tweet with video from the game: <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='

<p>Next game v Kenya, at 00:03am (NZT).</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>Kenya leading 12-7 at half time.</p>

[sinclair sector]

<p>good composure by NZ to sneak the win in the end</p>

[Stargazer]

<p>NZ started playing better when Kaka and Ware came on. Don't know why Titch started the game without any playmakers in the team.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Great play from Kaka there at the end. First a try saving tackle, then a quick tap penalty, scoring the try under the post and converting the try.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Final score: NZ 19 - 17 Kenya.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>NZ finish first of their pool.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Edit: that try from Rieko Ioane was awesome!</p>

[antipodean]

They stole that one.

[Stargazer]

<p>NZ will play their Cup Quarter Final tomorrow (Sunday) evening at 9.13pm (NZT) against Argentina.</p>

[KiwiMurph]

<p>NZ up 10-5 at halftime in quartrfinal. Argies are really bringing it. Ioane brothers making a huge difference.</p>

[KiwiMurph]

<p>Brilliant by Kaka.</p>

[KiwiMurph]

<p>NZ up 17-5. Baker carded for a reflex bad high tackle.</p>

[KiwiMurph]

<p>Argentina hit straight back. 17-12 nz</p>

<p>More like being a piston wristed gibbon reflex</p>

[KiwiMurph]

<p>Argentina score. NZ in biiiiig trouble.</p>

[KiwiMurph]

<p>Argentina burn nz with the same kickoff again</p>

[KiwiMurph]

<p>NZ look done now.</p>

[JAF]

<p>Well done Baker.  I did warn this group a few weeks ago that he was a toss.    </p>

[KiwiMurph]

<p>NZ lose. Argie deserved winners. Good game.</p>

[Bovidae]

<p>Dumb play by Ormond at the end.</p>

[JAF]

<p>I so much wanted the NZ - Saffer matchup.  They are a highlight for me (as a Saffer).  Fiji do play awesome 7s, but the traditional rivalries in rugby are still the same.</p>

[JAF]

<p>Oh will I think I am gonna get my wish as Blitzbokke are shooting themselves in the foot against Samoa ... down 5-14 with 4 mins to play</p>
