COMMENTATOR DISRESPECTFUL
An English commentator at the London Sevens Tournament was blatantly disrespectful to the champion All Blacks Sevens team in front of his co-
commentator - a Kiwi woman.
NZ were penalised for a breakdown error in playing the USA and the Englishman said NZ had been winning matches in the world series by forcing referees to favour their illegal tactics.
The NZ woman was upset at these remarks and burbled out some defence of the NZ team.
NZ went on to thrash the USA.
NZ has dominated the international series in 2023 winning 5 tournaments with the other 5 each won by a different team apart from Argentina.
Prior to London the AB 7s has already been crowned series champs.
Great Britain were well out of contention and when NZ played them in the London event last night were a well beaten side.
It will be renarkable if this commentator will be allowed to further commentate on fixtures involving NZ .
