    All Blacks Sevens coach Clark Laidlaw is enjoying the mix of youth and experience in his squad


    The New Zealand men meet Scotland in their opening pool match at 10.44 tonight for this weekend's World Series event in Toulouse.

    The All Blacks Sevens claimed second in Singapore before bowing out in the quarterfinals in Vancouver in their first tournaments since the Olympics.

    Laidlaw says they're well poised for both present and future.
