NZ 7s  training suspended while team wait on results of Covid-19 tests of Australian players

The All Black Sevens team have halted training after two of their recent opponents are being tested for coronavirus.

Two members of the Australian rugby sevens team have been tested after showing signs and symptoms of the virus.

New Zealand played Australia in the final of the Vancouver 7s, nine days ago and have imposed precautionary measures as a result.

An All Blacks Sevens spokesperson said New Zealand players have not been tested but further action could be taken pending the results from Australia but the squad will not return to training until the results are confirmed.
