Fantastic performance from the women's team. They just shut down everything Fiji did and their own handling and most importantly, use of the space and angles was first class.

The skill and quality level of those girls was phenomenal and not to mention the fitness. The ability from Caslick and Ashby especially to pass both right to left and left to right at pace and always put the ball in front of the receiving player was better than we see in most super rugby games

No, just inevitable. People will always go where they can make good money and Rugby Union refuses to do that. If we want to keep people in our sevens squads they need to be on $100K per year. AFLW and RLW are in a bidding war to get the best talent available and they have got very deep pockets. RA needs to revise its expense and income policy to channel more money into retaining talent, particularly the women's talent. Its Just supply and demand, economics 101.

tbf our 7's girls get full time contracts & nrlw dont yet unless your at the level of someone like Millie Boyle. Part of the reason the Levi sisters choose 7's over aflw. Yes our sport shafts our XV girls.

Hows Georgia come from the absolute clouds!

With there being a team GB next year & Japan getting a reprieve will we have an invited team to every series or do both finalist get full membership on the series?

On the above, how’s Meakes go at 7s? Never seen him play that format. And caps in 7s is tournaments?

He played a couple of years ago? Maybe it was last year? Yes. Caps is a tournament. He was adequate but the Aussie teams ceiling has raised since then. I don’t know why we’re picking him. Others have done the job recently.

Maybe he’s still based in LA from the Giltinis and was an easy call up for an injury?
