Baker makes Las Vegas Dream Team

Perry Baker has been named to the official HSBC Dream Team for the Las Vegas 7s. The Eagles rocket had a memorable tournament scoring five tries including two mesmeric efforts against Canada on day one. South African counterpart Seabelo Senatla, the tournament’s leading try scorer with 11, is also in the side as the selectors opted to include both gas-men instead of choosing between the two.

Dual-playmakers are also named with opposing finalists Jerry Tuwai of Fiji and Allan Fa’alava’au of Australia both nominated. The two sides each contribute a forward in the forms of Jasa Veremalua and Sam Myers, while Japan’s most influential player Lomano Lemeki rounds out the team.
