Fucking Aussie anti-vaccers are the new Suzy's
You'd think, after generations of Kiwis living on the Goldy and then going home after bitching about the quality of the "fush", that some form of immunity would be present to various strains of deadly Australian diseases.

So what on earth has happened to Isaac Te Tamaki, Teddy Stanaway and Lewis Ormond? Schrijvers and Bunce were superb at National Sevens, so will be great to see how they go. But can't understand the omission of the other 3. Injuries? Or Super rugby development teams?

Lewis Ormond plays for the Penguins team at the Hong Kong Tens. That tournament is often used to give NZ7s Dev players a run.
I think Te Temaki got injured at the beginning of the year, but I'm not sure of that. Stanaway hasn't been named since the Hamilton Sevens (not due to injury as far as I know). He's not on a players' list for the Hong Kong Tens.

Illness forced Ruby Tui (mumps) and Caleb Clarke (appendicitis) to be withdrawn from the squads, both have returned home to New Zealand.The changes bring young talent into the women's squad, with 19-year-old Alena Saili replacing Tui in the playing group and 17-year-old Risi Pouri-Lane confirmed as the travelling reserve and in line for a potential international debut. Akuila Rokolisoa, who made his All Blacks Sevens debut last weekend in Hong Kong, will join the men's team as their travelling reserve.http://www.allblacks.com/News/32261/replacement-players-confirmed-for-sevens-teams

Etene Nanai-Seturo (Auckland)
Interesting. Has he signed with Auckland for the Mitre 10 Cup?
-
@tim No, sorry. The All Blacks website has stopped adding provinces to the AB7s team line-ups the last few tournaments, so I tried adding them. I could trace all the other substitute players to a province they played sevens for, but Nanai-Seturo's was the only one I really had to guess; mabye a wrong guess. Should have mentioned that.

Pool games (in NZT):
Friday, 13 April:
6.53pm: Black Ferns 7s v Kenya
9.33pm: Black Ferns 7s v South AfricaSaturday, 14 April:
12.37pm: All Blacks 7s v Zambia
2.49pm: Black Ferns 7s v Canada
4.17pm: All Blacks 7s v Kenya
10.49pm: All Blacks 7s v CanadaAll games will be streamed LIVE online; check https://www.tvnz.co.nz/shows/commonwealth-games for the link closer to k/o time.
TV1:
There will possibly be a replay of BF7s v Kenya on Friday, 7.30-9.30pm, and of BF7s v South Africa between 9.30-10.30pm (the second game might be live), but not sure.
The game between AB7s and Zambia will be covered between 12pm-1pm; I assume they'll show it live.
The schedule also says that they'll cover the Men's game NZ v Canada between 2pm-3pm, but that must be the women's game. Ha, according to the schedule, they'll cover the same game also between 3pm-4pm. Via a crystal ball?
The game between the AB7s and Kenya will be covered between 4 and 5pm; probably live.
The game between the AB7s and Canada will be covered between 10.30pm and 11.30pm; probably live. -
Joe Webber, who was a member of the 2014 Commonwealth Games silver medal winning team, has withdrawn from the squad due to injury. He has been replaced by Akuila Rokolisoa, who made an impressive debut for the All Blacks Sevens in Hong Kong last weekend. Teddy Stanaway becomes the travelling reserve.Fuck, we're cursed, I swear! Are there any voodoo experts on the Fern? Make it stop, please!
