It took the All blacks Sevens until the very last game of the final tournament of the 2017/18 HSBC Hamilton Sevens Series to clinch the overall title for a second consecutive season, and that endurance will again be needed by the squad if they want to maintain their competitive streak and gun for a third successive title. That is the opinion of Chris Dry, the squad’s most experienced member, as the Blitzboks started their preparations for the next edition of the world showpiece this week. The 2018/19 series kicks off in Dubai on 30 November and finish in Paris on 2 June 2019, and the defending HSBC World Rugby Sevens Series champions are back at their base in Stellenbosch, getting ready for another strong start. Dry, who played a whopping 309 matches in 64 tournaments for his country, missed eight of the 10 tournaments last season and can’t wait to get back onto the playing field and push for a place in the team for the Dubai event. “We won in Dubai last year and then I snapped my knee ligaments in Cape Town a week later, and that was the season for me,” Dry said. “Since that, I have been working on my rehabilitation. At first I had hoped to be fit for the Rugby World Cup Sevens in July, but unfortunately I missed out on that too. I am ready and fit right now and will be pushing the rest of the guys really hard to get back into that starting team. Hamilton 7s live stream
