Dual international Michael O'Connor has coached Australia's rugby sevens team to their best-ever Commonwealth Games result following a semi-final victory over South Africa on Tuesday.

The Australians progressed through to a gold medal play-off against defending champions New Zealand with a hard-nosed 17-7 triumph over South Africa at Delhi University.

WE GOT SILVER well done Stannard and all - yeap pipped at the post but we got the medal wonder if it will even make the West tomorrow

Cummins looked upset but Stannard the standout of the tournament looked chuffed as he should

Well done to the Kiwi's was always going to be tough to beat them... I was unimpressed with the last kiwi try scorer when he taunted Cummins as he put the ball down.. that sort of poor sportsmanship is unnecessary... saw the same thing in the Mens 100 relay with the Final English runner taunting the Jamaican as he finished.. The jamaican wouldve won if he hadntve stumbled..

just leaves a sour taste in my mouth...

Thanks Zim was wondering why Cummins looked upset - getting number 2 spot was a great achievement for us everyone expected Samoa to win - the AB's performance on and off the pitch well what can we say it's part of the reason that they are SO loved.

Yes, it was very irksome indeed. Made me want to punch him, and I'm a pacifist.
