Looking forward to this one!
The #AllBlacks7s squad that has travelled to Singapore is:
Kurt Baker, Dylan Collier, Trael Joass, Andrew Knewstubb, Ngarohi McGarvey-Black, Sione Molia, Etene Nanai-Seturo, Jona Nareki, Tone Ng Shiu, Tim Mikkelson, Joe Ravouvou, Akuila Rokolisoa & Teddy Stanaway
Decent side but no Scott Curry ... still keen to see their outright price.

Great Team, will back them for the win.
I am more interested in the pool games of Fiji. Will back them on every - available in all three there pool games.

SA face Fiji in the Semi's, one of them will go out so safer bet is NZ. They were seriously impressive in the Comm Games and are on the rise.

Australia – The Wallabies are with Chucky Stannard and Lewis Holland (80 tournies between them). Longbottom has flair but the side is lacking a speedster so don’t expect anything from them.
Canada – John Moonlight has retired to become a firefighter, he was quite a presence but the Canadian team is very experienced and will try ride the wave of confidence from winning the Cup in Singapore last year. Don’t see them getting into the Cup Quarters.
England – The Poms have the most experienced team this weekend with a whopping 429 tournies between the squad. Dan Norton is the pace and Tom Mitchell the brains in a decent team that should face NZ in the Cup Semi’s.
Fiji – Without the services of Viriviri this weekend, otherwise the same team that won the Cup in Hong Kong. Definite Cup Semi-Finalists expecting to play SA in a massive semi!
Kenya – 2016 Cup winners in Singapore with a very experienced side of which made the Cup Final in Hong Kong. In the Group of death with England and the USA.

South Africa - Loss of Senatla and Kwagga has hurt the 7s team. Good to see Selvyn Davids make the side but they are missing a complete 7 starting line-up. Kyle Brown is getting on a bit and Snyman will also be missed this weekend. Expect SA to finish 3rd
Scotland - Welcome back Nayacavou into their side. A solid looking outfit who could surprise Aussie in Game 1.

SA -15.5 vs Samoa at Hollies - South Africa will want a fast start and Samoa have failed to cover the handicap in all 8 opening matches on the series this season! Samoa are 0/8 on the handicap
Blitzies beat Samoa 26-10 in the Cup QF in Dubai and I think they win by 20+. This handicap is out by a try
Fiji -27.5 vs Japan at Hollies - Fiji are riding the 7s wave and ran out of steam in the Comm Games final vs NZ. Japan make their debut in the Series in Singapore so will be rusty. Fiji have covered 7 out of 8 opening games by an average of 8 points per game! This handicap is also a try out and should be closer to 35!

Aussie beat the Scots 26-0 in the 5th Comm Games match so the Scots will want revenge. The only other match between the sides this season saw Aussie win 24-21 in Sydney. I think the Aussies are a very average side while the Scots are excellent with ball in hand and have a real gem in Darcy Graham.
Leaning Scotland +10.5
NZ v Wales
1st match between the sides this season. NZ win their opening match by an average of 32 points while Wales lose their opening match by an average of 24. Handicap looks well set
Leaning NZ -19.5
Argentina v Canada
Crazy stat is that Canada have only covered the handicap in 1 of their opening 8 matches this season. Argentina have lost an important trio of players while Canada will be motivated to repeat their Cup success last season. That motivation should see them make this close.
Canada +10.5 at Betway for me
USA vs France
Opening match in HK saw France leading 24-0 only for the Yanks to draw 24-24. France cannot be trusted so this is a stay away match up.
Kenya v England
Kenya, 2016 winners in Singapore have been cap kings in game 1. Covering 6 of their 8 matches (75%) These sides are the two most experienced in the tournament this weekend and this is massive in the Group of death. I fancy Kenya here!
Taking Kenya +5.5 at GG
Spain v Russia
This is the biggest game for both these sides on day 1 as the winner could qualify for Cup Quarter Final. Results between the sides this season ...
Vancouva - Spain won 14-7
USA - Spain won 19-17
Dubai - Spain won 31-0
Leaning Spain -5.5

Scotland -7.5 vs Wales
NZ -8.5 vs Aussie
Samoa +5.5 vs Argies
Canada +17.5 vs SA
Scots very impressive and should have beaten Aussie. Aus wont be able to live with NZ power, Argies are young and inexperienced and Canada have that belief after winning in Singapore last year.

Mild heart attack when the Fijian missed a kick right in front to make it 38-12 - thought the -27.5 was done. Fiji score from the restart with 14 seconds to go

Then Fiji -33.5 vs Russia - leaving that out as too close to call
Wales +17.5 vs Australia - Cap is too high, Aussies just need a win to top the pool, no need to go for plenty points
NZ -12.5 vs Scoltand - NZ will come out all guns blazing
Canada to beat Samoa - Canada are great in Singapore at 13/10
SA -16.5 vs Argentina - Argies are cooked, these kids wont be able to score a try against this resolute Blitzbokke defence
