14 - 5 NZ with 1'30" to go.
USA with 8 men on the field. What's the ref going to do?
Rasta?

That defensive effort against England was about as good an effort I have seen from a NZ sevens team in many a year..
Found it just as rewarding from viewing point of view than any brilliant attacking play..
Congratulations to both our men and women..! -

Amazing guts shown, brilliant effort and fight. Collier has grown into a fine player, obviously due to all my moaning a couple of years ago.
Never thought that I would see you type that! Nor that I would agree with you.
Both the semi and the final were great. Some steel seems to be back in the team under difficult circumstances too. That defence was amazing against England.

@kiwimurph he wasnt afraid to mix it up with the forwards and went looking for work in the M10 Cup so good to see he has made the transition so quickly, seems a massive talent.

Needs a passport for the Olympics and I think this is qualifying tournament for said Olympics, so an extra requirement than normal WR Regs.

I was impressed by the debutant Gregory. He got the winning steal vs England and seems to have a very high workrate.
Reminded me of a very young Messam. The Messam that I thought would go on to play centre....

Scotland foot on the dead ball line before he dotted the ball down for the try.
If you haven't seen this, find it online. Farndale for Scotland v Fiji. Last play of the game, 2 points down and all they need is a try to win. He's over the line but decides to get closer to the posts (when he had no reason to) and cocks it up.
Also a French guy was taking his time to place the ball for a try and a Welsh defender sprints and dives underneath to hold the ball up. Nothing better than a bombed try!

@daffy-jaffy Good YouTube work making up for my extreme laziness!

If I were coach, neither of those two muppets would play for me again.

That will be why we aren't coaches.

One of the reasons. I wouldn't have thought you would have to coach players to not do what these clowns did.
