I agree it should be scheduled next week when the Bays have the bye. Last year was huge during Easter, Bays had Bye too!!

Can't believe that not one tv station here in the UK is even showing highlights...not even Murdochs evil empire are showing it :evil: :evil: :evil: (not that I can get that).
We have Italian bloody soccer but not a comp that has teams from each of the home nations...bloody typical :evil:

No surprise at NZ being in there...I think they've won 8 out the last 9 finals...Fiji won the 05/06 comp.

Still disappointed the comp wasn't on telly...used to be...maybe if they ever do get it into the Olympics [-o< they media might show interest again.

Geez what a weekend!! Glad I booked 2 days annual leave for today and tomorrow to get over all the booze that's gone through my body.
Australia played like crap but England was worst- didn't win a single game!!! Yet again the Kenyan supporters were awesome with their bongos and chanting.
Looking forward to next year for more of the same, I encourage all people to get behind this tournament it will not disappoint!!

I, unfortunately, had to work today. Word of warning: take the Friday and the Monday either side of the 7s off. I did last year but couldn't get out of it this year.

How pleasing to see a 20% increase on last years crowd figures. A fantastic feast of a weekend, loved it! Well done to all the supporters who flew into Adelaide and all the sticky beak locals for supporlting this wonderful competition.
