    To one of the great upsets in World Sevens Series history in Perth, on Sky Sport


    The New Zealand men's sevens team have been stunned 17-12 by Uruguay in pool play.

    Uruguay also shocked league leaders Fiji earlier in the day.

    No such trouble for the New Zealand women's side, after trouncing Brazil 50-7 and Ireland 46-nil in their group stage games so far.
