NZ will keep on kicking Yarpy butt as long as we don't have the guts, spirit and back bone to challenge and get results...NZ is obviously doing something right and Kiwi's are strong and challenging people.

Cannuck ...I follow minnow rugby...I'm very impressed by Canada's achievement in the last seven's...unbeknown to most rugby fan's there is a lot of talent that lives in minnow nations.

I agree Seb, Canada could be a sleeping giant. If rugby catches on there watch out.
Cloudy if they continue to rely on kiw "talent" they will remain minnows. nice double meaning there for you.

just finished watching the 7s and woooohooooo, go NZ u good thing go, :o)
after a first up loss to fiji on day 1cwho avenged their pool loss to NZ in the vegas sevens where they were also in the same pool, NZ played every game afterwards without conceding a single point,,,
NZ 7s vs
55-0 spain
47-0 france
24-0 canda
31-0 england
21-0 blitzbok
thats a 178 pts without conceding a single point, and against heavyweights england and south africa, and also france who are strong but a tier lower and this world series surprising giant killers the cannucks.
IMO the difference was simply the return of some key players, plus gordon tiejens favouring kaka over cama who spent most of the wellington 7s playing from the bench.
brilliant move from tiejens, ive been calling for this move to happen for the last year now, cos tomasi cama might have the skills, but he dosent have the speed to warrant the incumbency, especially when kaka does.
anyway fantastic effort from the boys, never easy holding any team to zero, let alone some of the worlds best.
was surprised to see the blitzboks beaten so comprehensively, as their form has been class, but im not complaining, lolz, :oP
would be wrong to read too much into this tournament, blitzboks are a mere two points behind us on the ladder, and everything about the way they have been playing this series tells me that their chances of winning the series has never been better since 2008/2009.
with japan next on the circut, this is really shaping up to be one of the best 7s sereis ever.
good luck to both NZ and SA, :o)
