There’s some pretty great footage of the Aussie 7s teams cleaning up the field of streamers and confetti etc post final ceremony from the weekend.

So disgusted with what is happening with Putin and Ukraine situation that feel need to make my own stand. Ie decided won’t watch or support any event involving Russian teams Ie sevens immediate candidate for me where won’t watch 7s if Russian women (mens team not part of series following relegation) involved. At least unless this situation in Ukraine resolved. Be interesting to see what world rugby does in response to this.

Its kind of started, world rugby are not playing any games in Russia. Georgia didn't play Saturday night & the Dutch not going this weekend.

Obviously the HSBC titles are out of reach but at least they won't be heading into the Comm Games cold.

"Leroy Carter, Moses Leo, Caleb Tangitau and Kitona Vai are the four other uncapped players in the squad.

NZ men about to play their first game in God knows how long v Argentina who are currently second in the Series standings. Expecting a loss, just hope it's not a total disaster & they can build on it.

Edit: snuck a 12-10 win so very happy with that.

How long till Corey Toole gets a super contract. He's a jet. Also Gonzalez on debut is pretty solid.

40 zip vs the poms - boy they look good!
If you get a chance do have a look. The poms lost to spain, so they weren't expected to do well.

Biggest defeat ever for England from Aus and also first time them we've nilled them in 21 years.

Good performance but Samoa beat England 31-0 - they are dreadful atm.

Can’t seem to be able watch it anywhere

if you go to the World Rugby website & click on the HSBC Sevens icon it should give you "Where to Watch" info. Or there's an App that I think allows you to live-stream it.

i usually just vpn into a country that has no coverage so youtube should work to get the full days replay. The oz team was a bit scratchy for the first 2 games but the Poms made them look good in the last game. Gonzo looks good for a first series - got some serious wheels.
