Think the French were gifted a penalty for that try, not sure Fiji did anything wrong.

Good win for France though.

Some player Dupont

France deserved that - Fiji haven't been near the France line this half.
DuPont is some player - he'll be President by Monday, if he wants!

Some player Dupont

He’s phenomenal….

Handball is fucking brilliant

Fiji players were in tears of pride singing their anthem before the start, different tears now. Sorry for them.

Prefer League over Union but Sevens is excitement wrapped in some thrills with added joy - what a day we have just seen

Used to regularly go to the Honk Kong Sevens….fucking brilliant memories of the rugby and wild nights

Unfortunately, other countries have caught Fiji up in many ways. The professional sevens circuit means a lot more teams than just Fiji and New Zealand.

There's only so much you can do against a side who don't give space to attack - giving penalties appears to be as valid a tactic as in the XV game.

All done now.

Having DuPont is a bit of a cheat code…

I just saw that gigantic San Antonio Spurs basketball player on court a while ago.
Now that is a cheat code.
