            It's a bit confusing because of the time zones, but I think this is it:

            Saturday, 10 Sep 2022:
            2:01am: All Blacks 7s v. the winner of Scotland v. Jamaica

            3.37am: Black Ferns 7s v. Colombia

                      Goodness eight players injured and unavailable is about a third of the mens squad. Just as well they have only played in five tournaments since 8 March 2020 otherwise they might have to be dredging players up from Scots College if injuries hade continued at the same rate over their usual schedule.

                        Are two of the men yet to be named travelling reserves?

                        Jorja Miller gets her chance.

                          No TNW for the BF7s is a blow.

                                So this is supposedly being broadcast on ITV in the UK...yet go to their website and there's not mention of it and scrolling through the TV guide I can't see anything that looks like it. Farking typical.

                                Any ideas UK ferners?

                                        @Stargazer said in 2022 RWC Sevens:

                                        Unavailable due to injury: Tim Mikkelson, Rhodes Featherstone, Kitiona Vai, Joe Webber, Leroy Carter, Roderick Solo, Che Clark, Andrew Knewstubb


                                        Unavailable due to injury: Tyla Nathan Wong, Shakira Baker, Tysha Ikenasio

                                        Joe Webber, a bonus as thank f#ck he's not in the team!
                                        For the life of me I cannot understand how he keeps making the AB 7's side.

                                        As @Crucial said above, Tyla Nathan Wong is a huge loss to the Black Ferns.

                                        The AB 7's in good form after winning the Los Angeles tourney and the Black Ferns are well, the Black Ferns and will always be there at the pointy end of any tournament. Given the recent shite with the AB's and Foster, over the past few years my favourite team to watch is the Black Ferns, in either 15's or 7's

                                        C'mon the AB 7's and Black Fern 7's, let's go and get these trophies!!!

                                                    @Stargazer godammit still nothing on ITV and can't get the app to show me any coverage. I might have to send my 3rd ever tweet.

                                                      @Bones I'm watching games on World Rugby's website using VPN. Can't be bothered paying for a monthly Spark Sport sub for only three days of sevens.

                                                        @Bones It looks like ITV will only broadcast highlights.

                                                            @Bones Yes, and it looks like the UK is in the list of countries where it's not geo-restricted.
