USA women got out of their group and beat GB in the QFs.  Tomorrow they get NZ in the semi.

NZ beat China 55-5 in the QF and outscored opponents 114-19 in pool play.

Nothing wrong with playing for the bronze!

[Reese Bennett 3608]

Not surprisingly, New Zealand advances and the US will play for bronze.

[AbeFroman 2154]

Canada upset favorite Australia, will play the Kiwis for Gold.   US gets the Aussies at noon today for Bronze.

We need more Rugby 7s on TV during the year.

This does not bode well for our chances at a medal.  Winning bronze will feel like winning gold if they do it.

[AbeFroman 2154]

Playing tough, tied at 7 at the half.

[SurlyGator 864]

Wow.  Monster run and steals the bronz!

It's crazy that Aussie had JUST scored to go up. What, sub 1 minute left?? Madness!!

So was Australia ...

So happy for this team! What an awesome final play! Also, the coach, the only female coach at the Olympics. 

Gotta pull for our neighbors to the North. Go Canada!

[SameSame 1704]

Australia losing to 2 North American teams in rugby probably has to double piss them off.

Boo this man! Got to root for my kiwi homies

[WBT 20559]

Oh shit pick 5 after the gun and canada go up 12-7 at half.

NZ did have a yellow card, we'll see if Canada can hang on

[Braff Zacklin 13551]

Sorry for those boycotting X. Couldn't find it on another platform.

[Drew 2401]

I'll be honest...i'm a fan of the Rugby 7's for women...was not expecting that. Fun sport. Quick games too.
