The main cameras are on the Western side, where I imagine (hope) the bulk of the crowd is- in the shade, and out of camera range.

Good crowd sound supporting the Fijian Wizards against the Soap Dodgers.
Funny seeing the Wizards play in a non-white strip.
Good game shaping up Soapies vs the Wizards. 7-7 after 3 minutes.
24-7 at Oranges and now 38-7 with 3 minutes left in the second half.
It is an absolute joy to watch the Fijian Wizards when they are in form like this.

Holy Cheese. Fiji just put 8 tries to 1 on the Soap Dodgers. 48-7.

You'd need Engerland or the Saffas to miss,with Samoa, Fiji and the Kiwis all top 4.
Alternatively, ARU would need to step in and switch some players back/to full time sevens contracts.
Meh. Still hella fun to watch.

NZL have some OAP in their squad. I'm not sure that they will still be useful next year.
Stitch needs to blood some new young kids soon to get them some experience before Rio.
Samoa have been consistently inconsistent over the years. Will they be able to maintain this intensity for all 9 tournaments?
I reckon we are still looking good to qualify. It is a long season with another 8 rounds to go.

If they play like they have so far, they would deserve Gold, Silver and Bronze.

McMahon, Gill, Morahan, Phipps/M.Lucas, Foley, Coleman.
Anybody else with experience, who you'd just chuck in from the Soup?

WTF?!! Just woke up on a crisp Autumn morning to the news that we were thrashed by the Poms. Fuck, anyone but them!

Curry gone straight through them. Try!
Now Forbes refuses to be tackled, Try Mikkelson. 12-0
Dickson try, 4 mins gone. 17-0
Webber try, 22-0
Stowers try. 29-0. Oranges.
Definitely wounded by that loss to the kippers.
Ensor try, 36-0
Slippery eel Cordero try after 5 missed tackles 36-7
Now Rojas through for easy try, 36-14 NZ bench has as much effect as the Wallabies.
Morello in, 36-21 FT. Great 2nd half Argies
Titch will be having a spray about this second half performance.
