Anyone else take in the Sevens this weekend?
Very true. I find the 80minute version of the game much more enthralling (I live in South Africa and grew up with rugby) but I'm very excited to see how sevens rugby has grown in the last few years.the IRB has done well in taking games to different countries and this has helped to spread the love for the game. The fans also want more action and faster games so the sevens game is idieal for drawing a crowd and the popularity of the Dubai, George, in fact all the legs of the series is proof of that.Just a comment to the guy who says the game is boring now that Fiji are losing. The fact that Fiji can't keep up with the game is their own fault. I love the fact that the series is so competitive. NZ, SA, Aus, ENg, Argentina, Kenya and even Fiji have a chance of winning a tournament or the series!
