2023 World Sevens Series

Bones

Solo solo try, lovely.

Stargazer

Awesome speed from Roderick Solo!! Try time!

21 - 15 NZ

Bones

How was that offside?

Bones

Yesssss! Great last minute defence.

Stargazer

Yessssssssssssss, it's over.

FT: AB7s 21 - 15 Argentina

NZ through to the Cup QFs.

That was a tough watch.

ARHS

Geez that was a hard watch. Well done though NZ. We rely far too much on Rokolisoa and Ng Shiu. Don't know why Tangitau not starting.

Stargazer

Didn't expect Uruguay to be so competitive at the beginning of the Series. One of the most improved teams.

Stargazer

If Ireland wins this game, Samoa drops out of the Cup Quarters.

In that case, NZ will play Ireland in the QFs.

If Samoa wins, Ireland drops out and that's good for NZ's position on the overall table.

In that case, NZ will play Uruguay in the QFs.

I think (not 100% sure).

Edit: nope if Ireland wins, all three teams end on 7 points and Uruguay may drop out on points differential.

Stargazer

Ireland beats Samoa 21 - 14, but the points margin is such that Ireland drops out of the Cup and Uruguay goes through!

Cup Quarter Finals

4.44am: BF7s v Canada

Bones

Geez, almost feel sorry for Canada. Feel like they maybe didn't even get any possession at all in the 2nd half.

NZ get home 50-5.

KiwiMurph

NZ do well to find the space out wide and Leo has the pace.

7-0 NZ

KiwiMurph

Good defence by NZ forces an awful error by Uruguay in their in goal

Leo scores again.

14-0 NZ

KiwiMurph

Moses Leo cannot be stopped out wide.

21-0 NZ.

KiwiMurph

Half time.

A horror half for the South Americans.

Bones

Solo is quick eh.

You get the feeling Uruguay are a bit overawed. That was almost the second try to us from them dropping it in their in goal.

Tangitau does it easy.

KiwiMurph

More Uruguayan shenanigans in the in goal lead to a NZ scrum.

Tangitau scores.

Nice conversion

28-0.

Bones

And Tangitau strolls in again. This time frim 60m.

KiwiMurph

@Bones It feels like they overachieved to get this far.

Tangibly in again.

33-0.
