SA set up Dubai rematch

SA set up Dubai rematch

5 Dec 2008

South Africa will face England in the Cup quarter-final of the George Sevens on Saturday in a repeat of last week’s final in Dubai.

In the final match of their pool the Sevens Boks saw off the challenge of a tough Australian side to seal top spot. The Sevens Boks were 7-5 down at half-time, but fought back well in the second and tries from Rennie Dezel and Gio Aplon secured a 17-7 win over the Wallabies.

Earlier in the day four first half tries including a hat-trick from Robert Ebershon helped South Africa to an easy victory of Georgia, while two tries in either half was enough to overcome the USA.

In the other big game of the day, New Zealand came from behind to beat England to set up a clash with the USA, who upset Australia earlier in the day.

    Hi Carol,

    It is already much better, thanks. She has luckily decided to only come in ten days time so I have some breathing space.

    Did you enjoy the Baabaa’s game? I think Percy did very well and JW should have kept hom on and took the plonker no 10 (sorry Grant 10 :) off.

    Must go out quickly.

    #215 Robzim: Good news if you are on the mend.
    I had a great time at the Baabaa’s, so pleased that Percy performed “for me”!! (Bless him). He would have converted too….never mind. I really felt for Steyn, his time will come though.
    Did Roy manage to send the list through to you by the way?

    In my view FS should move to fullback asap or he might just miss out for good. His coach should also try and get him to kick his habit (can one go to rehab if you are addicted to drop goals?)

    Roy has not sent anything through as yet.If you do not mind you can send it to http://www.rob2.telkomsa.net.

    Keep well.
