2016 World Sevens Series
-
Toughen up Booboo a lot worse has been shared on here. And despite the fact we met at the urinal she wasn't a horror, which is surprising I know.

I'd say that's down to opportunity. A lot of 7s rugby played over here if you look hard enough, plus easier to get to tournies around Europe. Good money involved. <br><br>
Plus not many chances to gain experience with the national side. Both Ryan and Friday have coached England. -

<p>Full time: England beat Fiji 31-10.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Not taking anything away from England's win, but Fiji was terrible. Not sure whether Hayne has actually touched the ball at all after coming on in the 3rd minute of the 2nd half. The last ball passed by a Fiji player was meant for him, but it was intercepted and England scored their final try.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>By the way, Dan Norton scored an absolutely fabulous try! </p> -

<p>Hayne almost had a fresh air game, but he passed to and wrapped around the guy who threw the intercept at the end.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hard to see how he'll master the work around the ruck to be anything more than high-risk to a liability at the Olympics.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Worst of all - I somewhat enjoyed watching England beat Fiji! </p>
<p> </p>
<p>"Out, damned spot!"</p> -
<p>Huge tackle by SBW,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Titch is unimpressed at half time.</p> -
<p>42 - 5</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hayne gets three and a half minutes and Wales score immediately.</p> -

<p>Much better 2nd half from Fiji; playing like they normally do.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Btw, some of these commentators are absolutely terrible! </strong></p>

<p>Bloody oath.</p>
<p>The one with TeNana in our game against Russia kept saying Eyeowneeeee whenever Rieko touched the ball</p> -
<p>And Regan Ware spares our blushes, dots down under the posts - all tied at 14-14 at the final hooter. Mikkelson has had enough. He boots the ball into the stands. A superior Points diff will see us through to the quarters tomorrow. Fortunately.</p>
<p>Jesus, that was near on disastrous. Have to step it up big time for Rio.</p> -
<p>Saw bits of a couple of games yesterday, Portugal were giving someone a tune up. Then USA vs Samoa. Samoa were fucking awful. Gees that Perry Baker, always amusing to see on the field, like they don't feed him, then someone behind the posts waves a pie and off he goes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>NZ have been a terrible for a few rounds now, which is VERY worrying. Fiji look great, except for Haynes who is a joke. If I were a Fijian rugby player, I'd be fucking pissed at his inclusion.</p>
