Ref just cost Ireland a try for no reason, nothing wrong with the quick taps and he kept calling them back.

NZ over Ireland thanks to a very, very late conversion.

The quarter finals for the Rugby 7s are NZ v South Africa, Argentina v France, Fiji v Ireland and Australia v USA
They all look like good matches, just a shame they are on at such a terrible time, between 3am and 5am WA time.
Ireland only have themselves to blame, had their chances to win it but turned it over and allowed NZ in for a late try to pinch it.

It would suck to be in the men’s 7s. You start before the opening ceremony, miss the ceremony because you’re competing and then it’s all over the following day. Not exactly the Olympic experience you’d be hoping for.
I wonder if they get to hang around for a couple of days afterwards?
Surely they are allowed to stay until the closing ceremony if they wanted.

Nope, they are basically kicking people out once they have finished. They have 48 hours to vacate due to a new AOC policy.

The big events like football have pretty much always started then. The new events are the best ones anyway

Breakdancing? Let's grow up. Horrible addition to the games.

Laziest Poster on Figbooty
I have kids that played state volleyball and this comes up a bit. It is not really a funded sport at the highest level. No Pro league. Australian national teams have had to fund raise and pay for themselves over a long time. Quite a few kids now go to college in the US and Canada but because when they come back here they don't get paid to play they drop off. We regularly get beaten at youth level by the Asian countries also.
We have some that go and play in European leagues yes, but the sport here is not even close to the level it is in Europe and south America.
That is the simplest answer I can give really.

If beating Fiji wasn't already difficult enough, it looks like Roache is in doubt for the remaining two matches. Hard to replace his physicality.

Yep ****ing awful decision, will really drop moral I feel. Taking all the human experiences out of the games for the athletes.

No worries, there's still 10 or so kayakers to go before she's up...
