2010 Under 85kg Sevens Tournament Result:
Fantastic weather, great tries and some skimpy outfits,
you would have thought you were at the Wellington 7s.
The 2010 Championship winners were the University Shooters
after beating the 2009 defending champions College Rifle
Bombers. The Shooters went through the day undefeated
and right from their first game looked like the ones
to beat. The Bombers on the other hand showed the same
form that made them champions in 2009, except for the
draw against Waiheke in their final pool match. Only
one of the finals went into extra time between the Chargers
and Ponsonby for the Bowl, with the Chargers scoring
the golden points in the 1st half of extra time. There
was some controversy in the Shield final between the
Shooters B and UoA Barbarians with a try not being allowed
on full-time. A long kick and chase with players leaping
for their lives to put their hand on the ball first,
the in-goal referee judged the Shooters player had got
there but all the fans on the bank cheered for what
they thought was a Barbarians try under the sticks.
Thank you to all the teams that competed this year and
hope to see you all in 2011 for the third Under 85kg
7s championship tournament.Grade finals were
