im from SA and could not have been happier to watch the team that beat us win this convincingly because wow Fiji was on one! Kudos all round. what a great tournament to watch.
Now the 2 teams are back in the world series after the covid facade and proved to the rugby world that they still rule. The Aussies and Kiwis had played probably the toughest rugby 7s competition prior to this tournament at 2 consecutive local rugby 7s tournament in Fiji. Even though they both lost but it paid off. They finished at the top 4 in Singapore. On the other hand SA winning streak came to an end this weekend not making the semis. Welcome back Fiji. Your awesome.
Hopefully someday the Fijian Drua coaching staff could take a leaf out from the 7s style of play and open up the game giving more freedom to players to move and play their natural Fijian Flare Rugby
It was nice choice for Aussie and All Blacks to play in our local tournaments. It had really helped them in improvisation to be one of the great 7s teams.
Coach Ben Ryan had to pull Fiji back into winning mode against NZ. Fiji was always losing majority of the time before that because of inconsistency on performance especially on their fitness level. Just thankful that Ben Ryan started the change for Fiji rugby because Fiji definitely needed someone who can discipline them in their diet and training like a professional player.

Appreciate u comment but this is done by most players to take some pressure, tension off, be more relaxed etc. before game proper starts. Not only in rugby Viv Richards in cricket etc.
Fijis playmaker and halfback reserves needs to work on their defense. It's really bad seeing them unable to defend. Better take someone who can defend than taking someone who's only good at attacking and can't defend.
@@John.Smith679 hahahaha segai coach. Hahahahaha. Just the weaknesses ga we seeing hopefully could be improved otherwise all the hardwork of those first lineup will go to waste.
Yeah 679 that's something the whole Fiji team must work on this week before the Vancouver 7s. 2 tries in the final against Fiji were the result of missed tackles. Not only in the final though but in the pool the quarters and semis. Can be costly in a crucial match.
Whatever the attack,tackle,defence these boys will work on their strength 💪 as they work ,party and play on the field as always with my Fijian ruggers,after all these two teams is always the best to watch -WIN OR LOOSE,🐆🐅🐎🐜

Fiji were so good in the ruck for their own possession. That made a big difference. NZ forward pass was a game-breaker moment: Instead of 14-5 or 7 went to 21-0. Good refereeing: Right amount of clear comms and penalizing and playing "bodies in motion" open footie. Very good balance interpreting and keeping the game flowing. Both teams helped as they both play very good 7s. Great final!
@@magnusbrzenk447 Yeah the knock-on was a knock-on - not deliberate so should just take the advantage of scrum if no advantage. Giving yellow was totally unnecessary. That was the World Rugby Rugby Union Madness however - not the given ref's fault. It's the same with VAR decisions in football for handball in the penalty - absolutley height of moronic stupidity by the officiation in both sports. F clueless. Good call by you.

So you're saying the other teams on the circuit shouldn't be there,they not actual sevens teams? Those results SA had against those teams isn't recognized by IRB? Yet another fanatic who believes the sevens circuit is made up of only two teams
@@smileandwave8090 I just want to mention one point (This year shouldn't have overall trophy/championship). U can see the scoreboard before Singapore Station (NZL 0 pt, Fiji 24, RSA 86?) But in SGP station, it obviously shows that these two teams' final ranking also be higher than RSA.
@@pacoleung936 Even this point does not make sense - you're saying the entire format of this competition should change because these two teams could not make it for some of the legs of this competition? NO.
@@phandapanda9644 why u so sure that the answer is no? Could u take any evidence to support your view? Otherwise, I can also say that if IRB set up a vote, other teams also can accept to change rules
@@pacoleung936 Why would any team, who has participated in this new season of 7s from the start, who have worked very hard for their points, vote to scrap their hard work just to accommodate Fiji and the All Blacks? 🤔... 😁
Best refereeing is all I can say. Study his refereeing to learn the new rugby rules most of us are still unaware. Vancouver is coming up so expect to see the new changes .
All Blacks are not at all good at 7's for a few years, I don't know but their style of 7's is horrible compared to Fiji, superb playing. AB is playing 15 a side Rugby in 7's really stupid. AB current players are not at all good players. It all depends on the coach as well. That's what happened to 15 a side too after Hansen's departure. Truly speaking I was a die-hard fan of AB sevens now I am sick of watching their 7's as they still fail in sevens against Fiji. All because of their orthodox playing style, and many ugly errors. Please for God's sake don't lose the supremacy brought to AB by the Golden players in early eras. It's really alarming. No good player looking players all look like supper models.
im from SA and could not have been happier to watch the team that beat us win this convincingly because wow Fiji was on one! Kudos all round. what a great tournament to watch.
I just hope that they could continue that form for the rest of the season. #TosoViti 🇫🇯💪🏾

SA the covid champion...hehe
Ireland and Samoa are doing good to
T
Great to see the ABs, Samoans and Fiji back in the 7s. SA was getting complacent without them🤣
Love seeing these two teams play....excellent effort on both parts.
The AB player who scored the last try is a promising one in the future...great strength with good balance..
Fiji the only NATION I accept defeat against .. & I am a New Zealander !
Trues up Nz and Fiji.....Traditional 7s rivals..... we also accept defeat from your team😁
All Blacks 7s are in good hands with these young debutants.
Team to watch!
Man fiji is awesome. Lose to Ireland in pool match then win the whole thing. Unreal. Great work nz. Good tournament. Glad most teams are back.
Well done Fiji these two always provide plenty of entertainment
Hopefully someday the Fijian Drua coaching staff could take a leaf out from the 7s style of play and open up the game giving more freedom to players to move and play their natural Fijian Flare Rugby
God bless our Fiji team
So proud of u boys
It was nice choice for Aussie and All Blacks to play in our local tournaments. It had really helped them in improvisation to be one of the great 7s teams.
Thank you so much for the full game
God bless the Fiji team.
NZ have never beaten Fiji in a cup final since 2012.

No, they literally haven't go check your stats.
Fiji is the best 7s team in the last 10 years and will continue this way
The Fijian jerseys looks fire
Talacolo got him a nickname the “BFG” by rob vickerman 😂 😂 wananavu viti!
What's it mean BFG? big fj guy? Not sure lol
Or Big FIJI GUN ....just guessing....
@@timrokomasi8287 he nicknamed him BFG for the big foot giant because he's so tall

8:02 this dude seriously trying to say it was off his knee? :D
i was there, it was from the knee
Well done Fiji. Disappointed with ABs pass accuracy. Great heart to get some points on the board tho.
Toso Viti Toso, I love your blue jersey looks nice on you guys.

Listen to Josua Vakurunabili in the scrum calling out Eric Rush's son in the NZ team 😂
"Hey small Rush come here!" 😂😂😂
Jerry's voice was heard encouraging his boys in the first half 'eratou saoca tu qo'...they're breathless.

Sound's a bit soft.
11:19 good shot. After the whistle though!
& 13:01 what did the guy do?
Ridiculous yellow for “slapping forward” when he obviously didn’t do it on purpose, he just didn’t have much time to react
I just saw Fiji at the airport
Vinaka
Bula Eric Rush !

Wow Fiji really up for this
Tevita Daugunu nid to chill trying to do the refs job there.........

Nice video, but make up your mind in the title. Is this day 1 or day 2?
What was the yellow card for?
You can't knock on while trying to intercept a pass
@@Mechanical_Orion wow I understand a scrum for it but a yellow card is rough ahah
No is kinda obstructive
Because you're doing it intentionally and those passes have try potential
@@Mechanical_Orion yeah but you aren’t doing it deliberately to stop a try you just sometimes can’t regather it before it hits the ground
O
I can see why the Fiji boys are wearing blue instead of white due to the new colour blindness policy thing between black and white jerseys.
That literally doesn't make sense since they wore white in other matches.
🤣🤣Nah I think they just forgot their white kit
The Fijians subs really nid to work on their D
