The All Blacks Sevens clinched their 14th World Series crown in Toulouse last weekend, but the season isn’t over just yet.

There’s still one more event to play on this season’s circuit – at one of the most famous stadiums in international rugby, nonetheless.

Ahead of the final World Series leg at the esteemed London Sevens at Twickenham, the All Blacks Sevens have confirmed the sole change to their squad.

Moses Leo has been ruled out of the tournament with a back injury, and has been replaced by rising star Xavier Tito-Harris.

While it’s not a change to the playing squad, there has been a notable change to the coaching staff.

Head coach Clark Laidlaw has joined the New Zealand Under-20s team, so All Blacks Sevens assistant coach Tomasi Cama will take up the top job this weekend.

Cama, who is an All Blacks Sevens legend, said the team is focused on “finishing on a high in London.”

“It has been pleasing to achieve our goal we set at the start of the season, to qualify for the 2024 Paris Olympics and to win the World Series,” Cama said.

“It is reward for the work that a lot of our people do behind the scenes to allow us to be consistent through the year after a slow start to the season.

“We know it will be no easy task this weekend with a challenging pool, but we are looking to finishing on a high here in London.”

The All Blacks Sevens have won five Cup finals this season, including an incredible golden-point over World Series heavyweights Argentina in Toulouse.

But the focus is now on the event at Twickenham, and New Zealand will have to overcome the pool of death if they want to clinch their sixth title of the campaign.

New Zealand will play the United States at 10.29pm NZST on Saturday, before facing Great Britain and rivals South Africa early on Sunday morning.

Leinster cleanse palette with record URC scoreline against Zebre

My name is Solenn Bonnet, and I am a single mother navigating the challenges of raising my two-year-old child while trying to make ends meet. I came across a trading platform that promised astonishing daily profits of 18%. The allure of such a high return on investment was too tempting to resist, and I found myself drawn into cryptocurrency trading. Excited by the prospect of financial freedom, I invested a significant amount of my savings, totaling over 5.7 BTC. However, what started as a hopeful venture quickly turned into a nightmare. The platform was a scam, and I lost everything I had invested. The emotional toll of this loss was immense; I felt devastated and helpless, struggling to provide for my child and keep up with my bills. In my desperate attempt to recover my funds, I sought help from various recovery experts. Unfortunately, I encountered numerous fraudulent individuals who claimed they could help me retrieve my lost money. Each time I reached out, I was met with disappointment and further scams, which only deepened my despair. Last year was one of the most challenging periods of my life, filled with anxiety and uncertainty about my financial future. Feeling overwhelmed and at a loss, I confided in a close friend from church about my situation. She listened compassionately and shared her own experiences with financial difficulties. Understanding my plight, she introduced me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, a group of skilled hackers known for their expertise in recovering lost funds. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to reach out to them as a last resort. Their services came at a higher cost, but my friend generously offered to help me with a partial payment. I was amazed by how quickly they responded and began the recovery process. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire ordeal. To my relief, they successfully recovered more than I had lost to those heartless scammers. This was truly transformative, and I felt a sense of relief and gratitude that I hadn’t felt in a long time. I strongly encourage anyone who has faced similar challenges or fallen victim to scams to reach out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. If you’ve invested in a fraudulent platform like I did, they are highly capable of helping you reclaim your hard-earned money. Don’t lose hope; there is a way to recover what you’ve lost.
