No medal for Australia Fiji has a good chance of a second medal.

I don't know anything about women's rugby but losing to Fiji in the 7s isn't exactly unexpected?

Not unheard of, but losing so badly to them and then to France to miss the quarterfinals is unacceptable.  They're basically ranked 3rd.

I wonder if the allegations against head coach (and subsequent firing and replacment) had anything to do with Canada's result

Based on the comments by some of the coaches/management there clearly is some tension between the women and the people who run the program.

 

It might be time to clean house...

Now it’s time for the semifinals

Honestly that fifth place match could have been the finals.

So close for Fiji, they are having the tournament of their life.
