Mens Sevens in the Stade de France from 2:30pm BST today. I have to confess as to not have watched much sevens since Scotland dumped their national team, but France rested DuPont over the 6n for today.

In the UK, only highlights and limited live on the beeb again this Olympics, but eurosport is pretty cheap for a whole month for those that would like to see 6 days of uniterrupted Sevens, and a whole host of other sporting goods

I tuned out of the Sevens as well ever since they formed Team GB. Plus, trying to get a GB7s shirt at the moment is like rocking horse shit.

I suppose Ireland it is!

Good showing by the USA to get a draw vs Dupont powered France

Yeah all the build up to grab a draw is funny

We thinking this is accurate? I don't remember France being so good at sevens before... must be the Dupont effect

Home advantage is strong in that algorithm I believe

Some great rugby today with some beautiful offloads. NZL RZA game was particularly fun.
