    Breakthrough wins, in more ways than one, at the Cape Town sevens

    Breakthrough wins, in more ways than one, at the Cape Town sevens


    Argentina's men and Australia's women have claimed maiden titles.

    They've celebrated by diving sprigs and all into a defenceless 2000 litre sideline pool.

    The equivalent of a code brown has ensued.



    New Zealand's women finished third after a semi-final defeat to France, while the men were fifth.
