Im watching on the world rugby youtube.

29 points to 12. 3.3 mins left in the second half and the welsh have a man in the bin.

S.M.B.

Very impressive performance, don't think Wales got out of their half for this entire second half and there's only about a minute left.

CIARAN_BOYLE

Final score 46-12.

I feel bad for the Welsh players. One of their last tournaments and they are going out with a whimper. I believe that Great Britain will be playing next season instead of England Wales and Scotland.

What result are we hoping for between France and Fiji. A Fijian win guarantees us the quarter final. A French win makes us more likely to be first seed.

France leading 12-0.

Quarter final against new zealand 7.19pm

S.M.B.

This Samoa - Argentina quarter final is great entertainment.

S.M.B.

Combination of poor play and refereeing decisions going against us means it's highly unlikely we'll be progressing here.

Thrashssacre

Ireland have been absolutely shafted by the ref here, likely to have lost anyways but the ref is having a shocker.

CIARAN_BOYLE

We may have lost to New Zealand but USA to Fiji in another quarter final.

That means we are guaranteed to finish 5th overall.

Uruguay has won promotion to next season's HSBC World Sevens Series. We will be going from 16 core teams this season to 15 core teams next season.

Wales England and Scotland are being replaced by GB and the newly promoted Uruguay.

Lost Ormond

Play Argentina in 5-8th playoffs.

CIARAN_BOYLE

Can someone confirm if Argentina have already done enough to overtake South Africa (in the 13th place final later) for 2nd in the HSBC Sevens series or do Argentina need a result against us.

Lost Ormond

CIARAN_BOYLE

Ireland beat Brazil in the women's last 16.

Ireland are beating England 17-0 with 40 seconds left in the mens last 16.

SaoPaulo41

Ire now into 1/4s v sth af or Chile tomorrow

CIARAN_BOYLE

2 matches today of real interest to Irish fans.

The first is the womens quarter final. New Zealand vs Ireland in roughly 90 minutes time.

The second is the mens quarter final at 9:33. South Africa vs Ireland.

Both Irish teams are not the favorites for a win but both teams have a strong chance of an upset.

S.M.B.

Women lost 28-0 with it being a fairly accurate reflection of how the game went.

Roche is a disaster so many errors.

Thud

dodgy home town reffing in first half here

munsterlegend

Yes no way an early tackle.

VillaMad

Biggest win for the team since the sevens program began.
