Looking forward to seeing what Cook-Savage will bring.

Me too. The time difference sucks though, so hopefully some replays are shown.

Tim Mikkelson is two short of 100 AB sevens tournaments so I am sure he wants to be fit enough to knock off that milestone before retiring.

Doing a Messam then?

[ARHS]

@Crucial He was set to go a couple of tournaments back but injured pre departure

[Stargazer]

The sun is shining brightly in Cape Town. I wonder how hot is? Will that be a problem later in the afternoon?

Kaka just scored the first try for the BF7s.

5 - 0 NZ

[Stargazer]

Hotham scores the second.

12 - 0 NZ

[Stargazer]

Ikenasio already replacing Teneti. Injured or HIA?

[Stargazer]

Awesome, individual try from Risi Pouri-Lane!

[Stargazer]

HT: BF7s 19 - 0 Brazil

[Stargazer]

Blyde sent to the bin for cynical play. A team yellow.

Brazil scores.

19 - 7 NZ

[Stargazer]

Pouri-Lane scores her second. She's playing well.

26 - 7 NZ

[Stargazer]

Great team try. Hat-trick to Pouri-Lane.

FT: BF7s 31 - 7 Brazil

Good start against a pretty weak opponent.

Shiray Kaka confirming in the post-match interview that it's already quite hot out there.

[Stargazer]

The other match in NZ's pool ended in a win to Fijiana, who beat Great Britain 19 - 10.

[Stargazer]

Very soft yellow for Ng Shiu. Looked like he knocked the ball on in the tackle; nothing deliberate.

[Stargazer]

AB7s way too casual. Spanish scrum close to NZ's try line.

[Stargazer]

Great chip kick from Spain and they almost score. Good defence from Che Clarke. It's still 0 all, but penalty to Spain.

[Stargazer]

AB7s penalised 6 times in this half.

[Stargazer]

Damn, now Spain score and they go into the break with the lead.

HT: AB7s 0 - 7 Spain

[Stargazer]

Another weak start from the AB7s. Hopefully, they'll have a better second half. Getting possession would be good, because they've hardly had the ball.

[Stargazer]

Yesssss, that's more like it. Try to Regan Ware.

5 - 7 Spain

[Stargazer]

Cooks-Savage coming on.
