The New Zealand leg of the HSBC Sevens World Series, in Wellington, was played this weekend.
The South African Blitzbokke started their bid to win a 3rd Tournament in a row in fine fashion, by beating Wales 26 / 0 and beating Portugal 27 / 5.
The Blitzbokke’s next challenge was England, and the game was won by England, by 19 / 5. Both England and South Africa advance to the Cup Quarters, England played Samoa and the Blitzbokke played Australia.
New Zealand comfortably beat France, 47 / 0 in the last game of Day 1, after earlier losing to Fiji, but also advanced to the Cup Quarters, where they played against Canada.
At the 2nd Day of the tournament, New Zealand and South Africa advanced all the way to the final, with Fiji beating England in the 3rd place play-off.
New Zealand won the final by 21 / 0 against the South African Blitzbokke, capitalizing on mistakes and shutting the Blitzbokke out in the 2nd half.

Hoe gaan dit bruvva?
Ek eergister hier aangekom na n lang toer, see lyk soos n dam hier in Gansbaai, pragtige dag….em die Hansa is yskoud hier op my stoep!Amper doodgebrand langs die weskus oppad terug vanaf Namibia.
Maar nou kan ons weer rugby gesels n slag….
@ grootblousmile:
Eergister n ou ontmoet, kroegman by St helenabaai Hotel, sy naam is KortSarel. Jy moet hierdie ou ontmoet, n absolute rugbyguru! Vra hom enigiets oor Springbokrugby vanaf 1890 en hy rammel die spanne af, ongelooflik!
Kobus Wiese woon ook daar naby die hotel.
17 @ Pietman:
Mooi man, lyk of jy lekkerkry.
Hey, jy moet by SuperBru aansluit jong, jy en Pietvrou!!
Six Nations, Super Rugby, Varsity Cup…. al 3 die Pools se besonderhede is op die regterkant op R-T se Home Page.
@ grootblousmile:
Is die Blitsbokke nog in met n kans, dink jy? Jammer, ek het maar pas ingeskakel.
Lyk my hulle moet verby Oz kom in die QF, is dit reg?
@ grootblousmile:
@19 Maak so.
18 @ Pietman:
Fantasties!
20 @ Pietman:

21 @ Pietman:
Ek weet nie of jy gesien het nie, Voldy het lykmy omgeval… poer in sy moer, geabsorbeer in SA Rugby Magazine se website… as ek reg verstaan van die ouens wat nou hiernatoe oorgeloop het.
@ grootblousmile:
@24 Nee, nie geweet nie, traak ook nie oor daai lot nie. Ons het hulle in ieder geval aan die gang gehou toe hulle hulle op die piek was, na ons gewaai het was dit net n kwessie van tyd….te rassisties en polities geraak daar.
@ grootblousmile:
Tjeers eers, vrou verjaar hierdie naweek en ek wil moosa party gooi hier voor die huis teen die see, moet gou my ‘bestanddele’ gaan regkry vir die potte en biejie opstok.
25 @ Pietman:
Ja, ek het hulle hul son gegun.
26 @ Pietman:
Stuur GROENTE en gelukwensinge vir Pietvrou!
I bring sad sad news to Rugby Talk.
Keo.co appears to be now completely defunct.
So here I am………………… (do smilies work here?)
And when I say defunct,
I mean dead in the water.
Stone cold pulseless extinction.
28 @ cane:
Hello Cane,

Pity for you okes who put a lot of time in there over the years, but at least you will find a nice home here…
Make the comments sections here nice and active… Rugby-Talk is going to go places!
