GRR: USA Men 7s
The HSBC World Series finishes off for the USA this weekend with not much good stuff to focus on.
The USA Men's 7s team is sometimes a pretty good rugby team, and sometimes not.
Can the USA Men’s 7s team get to the top four in the World Series?
Yes they can, but it’s going to take some vastly improved performances and some help. Right now that journey, that four-tournament journey, starts in Hong Kong.
THE USA men squeaked into the CUp Quarterfinals in Vancouver despite one of the most lopsided losses in their history.
The Eagles, having played poorly in LA, started off the Canada 7s in Vancouver even worse, getting thumped 52-0 by New Zealand. Were the All Blacks 7s on a roll, or were there problems in the USA side?
In the end, the USA finished 13th at the LA 7s.
That's 3-3, but the three losses came at bad times. Whether Day One has been good or not, your first game on Day Two has to be a good one. It wasn't for the Eagles and they lost to Spain.
We detail much of what went wrong in that game here:
