Eagles draw Australia for Cape Town

The HSBC World Sevens series continues on the weekend at the spectacular Cape Town Stadium in South Africa. Only one team of the 16 did not take part in Dubai, with Zimbabwe taking the place of Japan.

Americas pace-setters USA look to continue their fine form as they find themselves in Pool C with a match against Australia looking to be the decider. Wales and Portugal are also on tap.

Dubai champions Fiji head up Pool A that contains Argentina. The South Americans will likely target the Scotland game to make their way into the Cup draw, with Russia also tricky opponents.

Out-of-sorts Canada find themselves in surely the most difficult group. Pool D puts them up against New Zealand, Samoa, and France, all of whom impressed on the weekend past.
