Dubai Rugby 7's

Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oi, Oi, Oi - the cheer rang loud over the sports stadium, the atmosphere incredible. Over 10 teams all competing against each other to be #1. The weather was cool (ish) and intermittently raining, the crowd pumped and the teams ready to score. We were at one of the biggest sports competitions of the year and it was packed. Mum's, Dad's and kids of all ages were crammed in to the best seats hoping to get the best view, despite the rain. Australia won 2 out of their 3 games - the first game was Australia vs. Portugal which, unfortunently we lost by 2 points. (Cameron and I weren't there for that one).
The second game was Australia vs. Kenya.

A great tackle

The Final Score: Australia 24 - Kenya 7

The third game was Australia vs. Fiji.

The score was actually Australia 19, Fiji 14 - they cleared the scoreboard too quick after putting up the correct score, so I could only put this one up :)
