Great upset win by the Aussies 12-5 to stay alive in the comp
Terrible quality game and saffas were woeful but we will take it

Japan annihilated Kenya to book their spot in the quarter finals. (Making good use of the rolling maul!) Hard to believe this the same Kenya team that won the Singapore Sevens.

Hooooo - to use the old cliche, New Zealand didn't lose they just ran out of time.

And if I'm not mistaken all NZ needs is Fiji to beat USA to progress.

Classic Kiwis...

The New Zealand rugby sevens team has been eliminated from the men’s competition after falling 12-7 to favourites Fiji in the quarter-finals.

Tempers almost boiled over for the Kiwis seconds before the final whistle was blown.

In a competition that had previously been played with impeccable sportsmanship, Kiwi forward Ioane Akira was heard on the broadcast microphones repeatedly telling Fiji players “f*** you” during a brief push-and-shove between several players.

New Zealand led 7-5 at halftime, but then it all went wrong.

They lost 14-12 to Japan and 21-19 to Britain during the pool stages — and lost star Sonny Bill Williams to injury on the first day of competition.

Stay classy NZ!

Great bounce back against SA in the Pool match, shame they couldn't reproduce in the Quarter.

Still a fantastic effort which I'm sure will motivate them once they get back to regular series
