"The offloads from contact zone are incredible "
They never want to form a ruck, it's all about flowing rugby and the ball being available. Great to watch if you're Fijian and I've got a few mates who are who will be slaying me later if this sticks. |

Yep, the Brits just hit the ground like they are playing 15-a-side |

Love a story about James "Cubby" Davies (player in the 7's squad) from last year.
A load of the Scarlets players went on hols to Vegas at the end of the season. They all got smashed one night and Davies woke up to find he'd got a tattoo.
He'd got the words "Cubby Boi" tattoed on his fingers. He stuck this on twitter and, predictably got the p*ss taken royally, particularly for the word "Boi" - not exactly you're standard term for a big, macho rugby player.
The best response on twitter came from his sister (twin, I think). She posted a photo of her sporting the word "Bellend" on her fingers (in thick black pen) |

The whole GB side might get that on Twitter after this  |

To be fair, 7's is part of Fijian rugby culture and is the first form of rugby they play. They are streets ahead of everyone on that score. The final score apart, I think GB have acquitted themselves superbly throughout. Beaten NZ, South Africa and Japan and 2 of them were seeded above us. |

Yeah, GB weren't actually that bad other than their tactics are out of date. Fiji just owned them. |

"Thoroughly enjoyed the games and got to be in awe of that level of fitness and commitment  "
I think GB would have won if they'd started with the wind behind them |
