Loving the crowd at BC Place. The expectation was to get 20k people per day, but in the end 30k came. Canada needs a huge win against Russia in order to reach the cup quarters though.

Hong Sevens is currently being held, but there is also a side tournament which will decide which team will become a core team in the next season. The semi-finals will be played tomorrow.

 

Hong Kong vs Germany

Zimbabwe vs Japan

[JoshMartini007 2,554]

Japan won the qualifiers, defeating Hong Kong in the final. They will replace the last place core team from the world series (Likely Portugal or Russia)

Rugby sevens, where you can finish last one month and win the entire thing in the next.

First ever win for Kenya by the way

Samoa is looking good for the last quota (hopefully).

How do seedings determined for the rio pools? will they basically take the placement in the end of the rugby sevens world series?

Paris sevens started today, our team luckily is with two super rugby players Moroni and Cordero who help increase the level. The results already showing: 36-0 to USA  

 

Anyway for me the greatest news is that Juan Imhoff will play in London Stage and probably olympics too. He's probably the best argentine winger in history we could use his help too.
