The Commonwealth Games was underway and the first Rugby games of these games were on Saturday 26 July 2014.
All games were played at Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow.
South Africa won the Gold Medal, New Zealand the Silver, Australia the Bronze!
Before the Final of these Games, New Zealand had not lost a single Commonwealth Games Sevens game… well, that record no longer stands.
The new Commonwealth Games Gold Medal Champions are South Africa’s Blitzbokke… for 4 more years!
It was a tough and physical Final, and New Zealand still deserve their plaudits for being the premier Sevens side in World Rugby.

Got to make this count now
Another yellow

Yes.
Another Yellow for Samoa
Another yellow, now it’s 7 against 5
Surely at least two scores
Cornal Hendricks gets the 2nd… laboured though
Blitzbokke 14 / 7 Samoa
Lemoenetyd
Nearly butchered that try, but in and that’s what counts. Eish, the Samoans hate the Boks. They seem to see red every time they play the South Africans.
Got to do it early in the 2nd Half!
2nd Half On in this one
Now that’s a good try
Chris Dry in!!
Blitzbokke 21 / 7 Samoa
Now no relaxing, boys!
That was even better. What a great steal from Kyle
Beautiful turnover from Brown and great finish
Tryyyyyyyyy Cecil Afrika!
Blitzbokke 28 / 7 Samoa
….when everything is going for you, you take it!!!!
Try Werner Kok!
Blitzbokke 35 / 7 Samoa
1 Minute 30 to go
So, we’re guaranteed minimum another silver. Good stuff
So, it will be the old foes, Blitzbokke va New Zealand in the Final!
Epic final between BlitzBokke and the All Blacks coming up
Good mauling
One last scrum for the Blitzbokke…
Aussie showed that the NZ’s have some chinks in their armour. Go Bokke
I wonder how Jan Serfontein would have fared in 7’s?
