    @Stargazer WR are quicker at putting up replays on YT than Sky are on their own service.
    Got up this morning to watch and there were no packaged finals or even highlights on Sky Sport Now. Had to go through the TV Guide and forward through to find the games!

    Good to see the BFs win through defence. They certainly had to knuckle down for that win and USA didn't give the game up easily.
    Men were luck. That Argie error just before fulltime was a killer for them.

    I was going to record the 90-min Day 3 highlights package this afternoon but those YT videos will do. Hopefully the Men's SF is on there too.

    Cannot remember a time where we have been so consistant, particularly the Men. The Black Ferns have been pretty dominant for most of their history.

    @SBW1 Results have been consistent but sometimes we have snatched victory after a poor game.

    The pleasing thing about the BFs is that they had to rebuild against a dominant Aus who haven't dropped in standards. I do agree that you would have them firm favourites against most other sides.
    The Men have had to deal with an Argie side on the up but regular contenders Aus, Fiji and SA haven't been up to scratch.

    Still, great to wrap up both titles and Oly qualifications.

    @Stargazer pretty harsh to not find a place for Kaka.

    Marvellous seasons.

    The ability of the AB 7s to have so many different contributors this season is quite something.

    Solo was utterly brilliant for a rookie and only played a few tournaments.

    Being picky but he wasn't a rookie.

    Played 36 matches in this series and 10 last year (debuted at Toulouse 22). So 6 tournaments this season from 10 so far.

    26 tries in 36 matches was a good year though. Rokolisoa 37 tries from 60, Carter 29 from 54, Leo 25 from 37

    That new girl Stacey Whacker isn't half bad

    And I love solo grinning the whole way into that last try, he knew even as he was about to be tackled

    As I thought, Tomasi Cama is now coaching the AB7s with Laidlaw back in NZ for the NZU20s.

    Excellent. Leroy Carter scooping up the ball that was dropped by the American player and it's a try!

    Rokolisoa converts.
