    Good to see NZ break their hoodoo vs Fiji.

    Been a while eh?

    They weren't much chop at the start of the year it must be said so you could have knocked them off.

    Well done on the gold NZ. Wish we'd been in that game but we've struggled against Fiji on and off.

    Boks win the first four tournaments 🤔

    ..and then don't finish in the top four of any of the rest?

    @Stargazer you've been paying attention, what went wrong with the Saffa's after Seville?

    Wonderful watch - full of drama! Very well done to our Sevens squad - improving greatly - and to Australia. I look forward to the world champs

    By the way, I don't think the score totals on that table are correct. They don't add up for some countries.

    I think it automatically drops the worst 2 tournaments or something? Because of the whole Great Britain thing

    Not sure. Maybe a few squad changes? Still can't explain the huge drop.

    @NTA Ah yes, that could be the reason.

    Refs stopped sucking them off?

    Great way for Kurt Baker to finish his 50th tournament with a gold medal.

    And his junk up against the back of a team-mate's head, no doubt.


    You weren't wrong!

    If you are going to have a flag in a photo best to have it the right way around.

    @NTA Well done, they were certainly building towards this after being left out for so long.

    So not smart enough to have the LA Sevens sign facing them too? 🙂

    Bakers at the back, so it is right way for most of the squad 😉

    Simple. They stole a march while Fiji NZ and Samoa were out with covid. The surprise was them winning the Commonwealth with a squad not as strong as in recent years.

    Here's the full semi-final between NZ and Samoa. I don't know how long it will stay up, before it is removed from YT.


    And here's the full final (you can skip the first 10-11 minutes).

    NZ manages to finish 8th after missing the first four tournaments.

    Congrats Oz. Enjoyed watching their side this year.

    Just on the table Oz averaged 14 points per tournament and the AB7s averaged 16
