<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]

[KiwiMurph]

<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>

[Higgins]

<p>You seem sure that Sth Africa will be good enough to best Samoa JAF. Just informing you that with four minutes to go to score is Samoa 21 Sth Africa 5</p>

[JAF]

<p>Make that 5 - 21</p>

[Higgins]

<p>A good comeback by your guys JAF to reduce the final margin to 21 - 10.</p>

<p>Anyway can happen on the day in 7s, ABs can lose to Argentinia and Blitz can lose to Samoa.  With NZ it was due to a high tackle.  With Blitz it was due to Kyle Brown knocking on when took a quick penalty when there 3 Samoans down.  Samoans scored from the scrum and and then a great try from kick off.  What could have been 12-7 to Blitz was suddenly 21-5 against. etc.  But that is 7s.  Is what we enjoy.     </p>

[JAF]

<p>These 7s cup quarter-finals are a bunch of surprises. NZ, Saffers, Kenya losing.  Fiji 12 - Aus 15 with 3 mins to go.  Aus dominating, but Fiji will always pull out something.</p>
