4 mins gone and its Fressard once again, this time on the left wing! All Australia early on here. 12-0 AUS
McGregor spots a gap in the Canadian left edge defence from the scrum to score another. Aussie girls rampant! AUS 17-0
And it's another!! Demi Hayes breaks from her own 22 to race clear. McGregor converts and its HT. 24-0 AUS.

2 mins into the second half and Branch pulls one back for the Canadians. 24-5 AUS

Boys starting VII v South Africa (Gold medal match): Leota, Anderson, Kennewell, Clarken, Goddard, Ngamanu, McNamara.

Match Updates from @Aussie7's tweets
South Africa make early pressure count and take an early lead in this gold medal match after 2 mins. 7-0 SA.
Tough start for our boys who slip further behind. Three mins gone. 12-0 SA.
South Africa turn it over and a kick and chase results in another try. 17-0 SA.
The task just got tougher with Kennewell sent to the bin for a tip tackle. 17-0 SA.
With 6 on the pitch, our boys respond and get on the board. Clarken takes a quick tap and is over. 17-5 SA.
But South Africa capitalise on a loose ball in midfield and are over again. Aus back to 7 on the field. 24-5 SA.
HT and South Africa lead our boys 24-5 at the break of the gold medal match.

Leota is in for AUS. Brilliant from the scheming Coward. Long way back from here, but is it too far? 7 mins left. 24-10 SA.
And we're in again. Brilliant from the dancing Ngamanu and he's in on the left. Feels like this is turning around slowly. 24-15 SA.
It's three in 2 mins! Coward has spotted a tiny gap and dots down. Surely not?! 24-20 SA.
But the Baby Blitzboks hit back straight from the kick off and score under the posts. 3 mins left. 31-20 SA.
South Africa down to six for the remainder of the game. 31-20 SA.
Our boys lose out 31-20 to South Africa in the gold medal match.


Silver Medal for us. Brave effort all round. Well done Boys.
