Fiji defeated New Zealand 32-14 in the Cup final of the 2012 Gold Coast Sevens to successfully defend the title they won in 2011 and claim the first Cup of the new HSBC Sevens World Series. In a repeat of the 2011 final Fiji once again proved too strong for the All Black Sevens at Skilled Park with Ratu Raitini scoring an impressive hat-trick and Joji Raqamate crossing twice for a side that boasted just one player from last year’s side.
The victory means Fiji collect 22 Series points to sit top of the standings, ahead of New Zealand (19) and South Africa (17) who beat Kenya (15) in the third place play-off. This two minute clip features tournament champions Fiji, Scotland Sevens Colin Gregor, England’s Rob Vickerman, Kenyan coach Mike Friday and former Australian scrum-half George Gregan.
