HSBC Sevens World Series 2014/14 - Round 5 - Las Vegas

[waiopehu oldboy]

Yeah, you should be too good for Scotland so Aus v NZ QF on the cards. Unless ya throw the Scotland match to get Fiji......... yeah nah.

NZ now without our 3 most experienced players, perfect opportunity for Aus to sneak one v our new kids.

Bugger, Poms 14-0 Kenya.

Gem from the comments guy, England are "flatter than a dead Herring"

HT, Poms still 14-0.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

I think England need to win by 22+ to win the Pool. C'mon Kenya! You beauty, Oscar scores, kick is good, 14-7.

Try Poms under the posts, 21-7 & I doubt Kenya can come back.

Whoever gets the Poms in the QF will be rubbing their hands together already, they look shagged already.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Good to see what looks close to a sell out crowd at Las Vegas.

Attendances at some of the venues so far this year have been poor.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

I think the Yanks are onto something format-wise, breaking it up into three smaller chunks makes it so much more watchable & probably attendable (is that a word?) vs the usual 2-day setup.

Canada win the Pool, QF v USA, Poms 2nd, not sure who they get.

EDIT: it's SA.

Aus & Scots next. Over to you, Mr Jarse.................

AUS vs SCO

Lewis Holland Meat Pie. Unconverted. AUS 5 SCO 0. 3:30 minutes left.

Jesse Parahi Meat. Kick good. AUS 12 SCO 0. 2 minutes left. Parahi arm hurt. Myers on.

Con Foley Meat off quick tap kick 5 metres out. Simples. Holland converts. AUS 19 - SCO 0. 40 sec left.

Sco not seeing too much of Gilbert in the last 4 minutes.

Alan Fa'alava'au Meat on the hooter for oranges. Converted.

ORANGES: AUS 26 - SCO 0

 

[Brumby Runner]

Aus up 26 - 0 over Scotland at half time.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

AUS v SCO: 2nd Stanza

Sco kick off.

Greg Jeloudev meat and chopsticks. AUS 33 - SCO 0. 5 minutes left

SCO (Flemming) finally get some continuity and grab some meat. Too little too late. Converted. AUS 33 - SCO 7.

OOps: Clarkie's Boy shown YC for tackle off the ground. SCO score and convert. AUS 33 - SCO 14.

Malouf replies in kind with his first meat pie for this game. Converted. AUS 40 - SCO 14. 1:30 left.

Sir blows the Acme Thunderer for no game. Final Score unchanged.

AUS 40 - SCO 14.



Bring on NZL.

Some cracker matches coming up in QF of Cup. 90 minute break for breakfast.
FIJ v FRA - Fiji will win by 50 points.
SAF v ENG - Anyone's game.
NZL v AUS - Our lads will need to bring their A game.
CAN v USA - USA looking impressive so far. Some ginger likely in this local derby.

Playing off for the minor placings in the Cutlery Division:
SAM v BRA - Samoa should win comfortably
POR v KEN - Kenya should breeze through
SCO v WAL - Both teams will lift for this game, and could go either way: possibly WAL.
ARG v JAP - ARG will win comfortably.

Geez I wish Greg Clarke was on the mic when his boy got carded..........

Nearly 2 hours between this & the QF's, maybe whoever's updating the Fixtures on the official HSBC 7's website will WAKE FUCKING UP & tell us WHO'S FUCKING IN THEM!

[waiopehu oldboy]

Yay, QF times are up.

BrisVegas is 18 hours ahead of Las Vegas, so Aus v NZ just before midday?

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Samoa 19-0 Brazil in the 1st Bowl QF. 2min left.

Samoa in again, 26-0, 1min left.

Intercept try Brazil, 26-7 full time.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Portugal score (just barely) while Kenya are a man down, 7-0.

Kenya go 80m to score, kick no good, 7-5 with 1:05 on the clock.

1/2 time.

Kenya under the posts & take the lead 12-7.

Portugal trapped in-goal, 5m scrum Kenya. Relieving penalty Portugal, dodged a bullet right there......

...... and again, Kenya chip & chase but knocks on in-goal.

Late try Kenya to wrap it up 17-7.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Scotland 19-14 Wales, Argentina 15-12 Japan in the other Bowl QF.

Fiji 24-0 France in the 1st Cup QF.

Bold prediction-not looking like anyone will beat Fiji this tournament

[waiopehu oldboy]

Fiji 31-10 France.

SA v England now.

Try SA, 7-0 Poms don't look as shagged as in their last outing but that could change if SA keep having all the ball..........

Poms score right on oranges, 7-7. Senatla's made a coupla breaks but been pulled down by Bowen both times, holy shit that boy's quick.

Poms score, 14-7.

Afrika with an insane offload, du Preez in, 14-14.

Seatla finally gets past Bowen, 21-14, 1:08 left.

Afrika botches the kickoff, England can take this to sudden-death overtime if they score.

Loose pass, ball goes out & Poms are in the Plate.

Here it comes, Aus v NZ. Should be fuckin' AWESOME, Y'ALL!

 

[Wilson]

This SA vs England qf is a good game.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

Soap Dodgers will probably score after the siren to tie the game up, but fail to do what they are so good at doing, and now they are playing off for some flat crockery instead of a cup.

When we beat NZ, we will extend our Olympic Qualification points gap over them.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Fuck me what a try to Waaka, 7-0.

Scrum NZ right on halfway, some scrappy stuff, penalty NZ, silly stuff from your skipper who gets carded & marched 10.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

NZ playing soccer and get some meat after the Gilbert cannons off the goal post pads. NZL 7 AUS 0. 1 minute.

Dumb play Ed Jenkins. Tossing the ball away earns him 2 minutes in the naughty boys chair. This will cost us. It is hard enough playing 7 on 7 against NZL!

NZL may us pay. Webber scores for Black. NZL 14 - AUS 0. 1 minute to go to oranges.

ORANGES: NZL 14 AUS 0. We have not seen the Gilbert on attack. Hard to claw back two try advantage without the Gilbert. Looks loke we will be joining the Soap Dodgers in the Plate competition.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Try Webber, Waaka nails it, 14-0! Jenkins back out there. Hooter has gone for oranges.
