NZ Sevens 2024-25

NZ men lucky to make the QFs. Cama needs to focus on youth.

[Steven Harris]

@Bovidae definitely needs a reboot and the best way to do that is bring in younger players

[Bovidae]

I will be interested to see how many new, younger players are included in the full squad. Not enough I reckon.

If it counts, Webber was making a number of schoolboy errors…..

[Bovidae]

@ACT-Crusader I didn't see the Fiji game, but Webber wasn't too bad in the earlier games. However, against Spain, Molia had a shocker, and Rush had perhaps the worst game I've ever seen from an individual player without getting a card.

Too many players on the wrong side of 30 still - Regan Ware, Amanaki Nicole, Dylan Collier, Joe Webber, Sione Molia and Lewis Ormond.

[Bones]

@Bovidae Molia basically single handedly lost us the Fiji game with guest appearances from Webber and Ormond.

[Bovidae]

The BF7s beat Ireland 33-12 in their QF. Aussie looks ominous so happy to avoid them in the SF.

NZ v SA QF just kicked off

[Bones]

Good grief Vai, give it a fucking bash on the outside, that's why you're there!

[Bovidae]

What does Ormond offer again?

[Steven Harris]

@Bones Vai not the sharpest knife in the draw just needed to kick it into touch with the clock in the red
Some good scramble D ,but the offloads are a concern

Knock one?

[Steven Harris]

Good chase from Mathis to push the try scorer to the corner
Inside D horrible

Finally beats someone on the outside and it's instead of just running the fucking ball out.

Now creates a beauty 😂

[Steven Harris]

Awesome from Maka

[Duluth]

I'm surprised that no SR sides picked up Maka

What position is he? Bloody quick for a big man!

Awesome win, defence really sharpened up at the end, led by Knewstubb! Nice to see guys actually running lines and being smart.

[Steven Harris]

Stunning finish ,best performance of the weekend
Concern for me is the number of players we are putting into the breakdown and leaving man on man D out wide and getting exposed with inside switches

[Bovidae]

See what happens if you play the newbies. I'm not sure why they didn't kick the ball out before the last try.
