1 Blitzbok cracks nod for London Dream Team

Cape Town - South Africa’s Dylan Sage was included in the Dream Team following the completion of this past weekend’s London Sevens.

The Blitzboks were pipped 21-17 by Fiji in the Cup final, but there was at least some consolation for Sage.

He joined three Fijians (Paula Dranisinukula, Josua Tuisova and Josua Tuisova), two Irishmen (Jordon Conroy and Mark Roche) and one Englishman (Mike Ellery) in the Dream Team for the event.

The Blitzboks are seven points adrift of Fiji heading into this weekend’s final event in Paris.

The South Africans can still retain their world crown, but would need to win the tournament and see Fiji eliminated from the Cup competition at the quarter-finals stage.

The Springbok Sevens were drawn in Pool B alongside Canada, Russia, Scotland for the Paris Sevens.
