Watched some of it, was at the European Games in Krakow.
So both the Ireland Men's and Women's sides have qualified for Paris, GB Women also. GB Men have one more chance at the final qualifying tournament next year.

Re: Ireland 7s
Never get all the England bashing... Hypocritical Xenophobia. Given a team that supported Ireland during the troubles, supported a world cup bid and regularly shoot themselves in the foot in the Heiny etc.. what's not to like?

Yeah the English were very supportive during the troubles. They used to give out lead to civilians but got nothing but flak!! I remember one Sunday in particular. Ungrateful bastids.CIMANFOREVER wrote: Never get all the England bashing... Hypocritical Xenophobia.

By the way, baiting the English is a great pastime, alongside baiting the French, Welsh, Scots, Americans, Australians, Mexicans (the Irish ones), Turnips (again, the Irish ones) etc, in fact anyone towards whom we occasionally feel just a wee bit of (shhh, don't mention it) envy.
