After that win, those Kenyan players received some good amount of money from their government plus free health care for life and a car..That's what I read..The guy Injera is a legend in the sevens game, I think he's still the leading try scorer..
I honestly don't follow 7s that closely anymore. However, my observations in the past have been that New Zealand uses the 7s circuit as a breeding ground for future 15s talent. It appears to be a platform for some of their best prospects to sharpen their skills, before graduating to 15s. I remember one New Zealand 7s group that included Israel Dagg, Rene Ranger, and Victor Vito in it. They were unbeatable that season, and Dagg, Ranger, and Vito went onto to be 15s stars. While it seems to me that South Africa sends most of its 15s rejects to the 7s circuit. Despite that, we have enjoyed a considerable amount of success on the circuit, having won the championship four times. We have also been championship runners up eight times. Only New Zealand has a more dominant record than us....and it is a much more dominant record. 13 championships is a lot. The other strong 7s nation is obviously Fiji, but I think we are going to start seeing them drift a little bit in coming years, as New Zealand and Australia include them in Super Rugby. I think that is a good thing, because a stronger Fiji 15s team is a much better platform for their rugby.
Good find bro, enjoying it. Fiji is (I think?) the only country where the biggest sport is 7s. Getting it in the Olympics should slowly help with that though. The main shame is that you don't get to see big 15s stars in 7s cause of busy schedules, I'm hoping World Rugby has an overhaul of the international schedule. Also there's a lot of good content on Fijian 7s. Sevens from Heaven is a good short doco. And you can check out interviews with their old coach Ben Ryan for some good history as well. African Rugby is growing. They just had the Stellenbosch Challenge with Zimbabwe, Namibia and Kenya and they flew Brazil over as well. All free to watch on UA-cam. It's growing everywhere bro. Russia has a pro league. Israel plays. Some Afghanis play Rugby in the snow. One day we will be bigger than Soccer and we can make them stop calling themselves 'Football' cause we had that name first. Jk. It is cool to see the sport grow though. Gotta love ruggers.
You should react to South Africas number 11 from this video he is South Africas top try scorer in 7s he is now playing 15s for the DHL Stormers in South Africa

In Africa it's only south Africa and Kenya that represent in world series in rugby7s
🇰🇪🇰🇪 play it great. Every year
The you're saying some stuff naturally makes me believe you must have either played the game, or had a lot of exposure to it. Greetings from Kenya 🇰🇪
KENYA have good rugby 7s team. kenya won the Rugby 7 World Cup.
Alvin Otieno, nicknamed "Buffalo" or "Buffa react this guy...kenyan rugby
we've never won the world cup.
When did Kenya win a Wold cup? Think you wrong there.
3"58, that is NOT the Kenya team, we actually do not have a single white player in our sevens team, or even the 15s.

7s has only been a breeding ground for the women, most All Blacks don’t touch the 7s seen and those who do usually don’t last in the All Blacks

SA 7s and 15s are both really good 3time world champs in 15s and they have won 7s a lot to
Jeez no joke; won 7s last year, winning this year, and rank 1 in 15s.
wth was NZ doing this year.
@@Eurynomos326 COVID restrictions, neither New Zealand teams played
You can watch live sevens on UA-cam mate.
SA 7s and 15s are generally on the same level

React to "When the strongest rugby players met each other on the field"
Watch out for Kenya and the USA in the 7s format
After this they lost again... Consistency is something they lack.. Fiji on the other hand beat them again but learnt never to underestimate them
Am here for 🏉 . Best game ever invented. Disk golf is a close 2nd don't judge me 🤣
Fiji 7s and 15s are strong same as South Africa
When it comes to 7s kenyans are mad they can defeat anyone i mean anyone
USA was in the Dubai finals vs South Africa this past weekend : ua-cam.com/video/W1Zsc2O6sbA/v-deo.html
Rugby in Africa I would say South Africa is 1st then Namibia 2 Kenya 3 and Zimbabwe 4
