Dubai Sevens Kicks off Tomorrow folks, very dissapointed its not being telecast here in Aus, looks like Fox are only willing to come to the party if its a local tourni.
lift your Game Foxtel!!![]()
heres the schedule...
(game 4) Aus v Zimbabwe could be exciting!!![]()
The Australian tournament is the only one they show isnt it??
thats kinda sucky, i guess they think were only interested when it's in our country and when its easily heard about (eg when its in our country)
hey guys!!!!!!!!!!
Any of you "thewholeforce.com" members out here in Dubai to watch the sevens?
I was thinking of meeting up...if anyone is up for it? I'll be coming down from Abu Dhabi on Friday....hope to see some force shirts there....
cheers!
OK here are the current results:
New Zealand 41 Scotland 7
France 26 Arabian gulf 0
fiji 31 Argentina 19
Australia 28 Zimbabwe 21
Samoa 24 Kenya 19
Wales 22 USA 7
South Africa 31 Canada 5
England 27 Tunisia 12
No big upsets there so far.. closest match seems to have been the Aus v Zim match
GO ZIM!!!
EDIT: sorry i was wrong. kenyaquin seems your boys took Samoa to the wire!![]()
Must've been good games to watch, Zim and Kenya games would've been worth a look, as well as the Argies scoring 19 against Fiji, that makes pleasing sounds for the future of Argentine rugby. Their forwards' quality is pretty much assumed these days, looks like the backs factory is going OK as well!

Well done to NZ for taking the Trophy and to the big improvers Argentina & Kenya
Australia get special mention as they won every knockout game.
Zim should have won the game against france but did well to win against USA and Tunisia, they will be disappointed.
Happy for the Kenyan boys..I'm sure they'll be abit disappointed (as anyone is in tight contests) but should be really comforted by their 2 and 3 pnt loss to the Boks and Argies.
