What's the hold up asks he who does not have a Sky connection? The Great Britian v Spain match seems to have been stuck on GB 19 - 17 Spain with 13minutes 5 seconds played for over half an hour now.

@Higgins Bad weather on the way. I think there's a worry about lightning strikes.

NZ v USA game happened about 2hours late because of the weather. NZ won 36-15. Surprisingly few mistakes given the surface water

When is the game v Samoa now?

I watched most of the NZ-Chile game. A much closer 2nd half, even when a Chilean was given a YC.

Stargazer

That's going well ...

ARHS

Great skills by nz in horrid conditions v USA. The Webber and Carter midfield is becoming more potent all the time. Collier v good today

@Higgins Uruguay played the conditions really well.

Not a follower of 7's but yes it is wet here in SoCal. Been a pretty wet winter over here with snow in the hills where I live. Nothing torrential just a steady flow. Looks like it might stop tonight.

Stargazer

Going throught the results, I see there have already been three upsets:

Argentina lost to GB: 5 - 7
Australia lost to Kenya: 7 - 12
and - as mentioned - South Africa lost to Uruguay: 5 - 10

Higgins

@Stargazer The first one still sees the loser retaining the Falkland Islands Silver Medal.

Not sure that great, means we play them in the quarters, right?

Stargazer

Our debutant - Fehi Fineanganofo - is a strong lad. Has to work hard in this game, already.

Stargazer

Like just now. Good try saver by holding the ball up in-goal.
