Olympic Sevens 2024

Ref was a disaster, constantly in the way at general play, ignoring high shots on the good girls and then can't even keep up for a standard try put down.
Great fight back, probably the best tournament I've seen Hirini play and love how Waaka is just always a threat and you can see the opposition hesitate.

I don't watch alot of 7s, although i expect it is standard, but that card was a joke, the player with the ball was 100% the cause of that glancing head contact by stopping as she did.

Tacklers at fault by definition aren't they? Even in XVs.

@booboo well I think they are bollocks in 15s too, just shows how the game is struggling with common sense.
Portia running flat out after someone who suddenly stops and steps into her for the body check...
Anywhoo, still a great result.

Tackler has to be in control... you even state right there in what you wrote that she wasn't in control. Surely the ball carrier is allowed to stop without having to take a head battering, or is that a law I missed? The dip from the ball carrier though, that's mitigation. Hence yellow.

I'm using discovery plus, the app is a bit shit (e.g. you couldn't just watch the sevens, you had to watch each individual game as an item), but hey it's free and the quality is really good.

@MiketheSnow @Billy-Tell there's also stuff broadcast on Eurosport (TV channels of discovery plus).
The AB7s - yeah, nah!
