The Dubai Sevens is a big date in the world rugby calendar, and is the first tournament in the IRB World Sevens Series, the world's premier rugby sevens competition. With the 2008 Dubai Sevens approaching this weekend, here is some footage from the final of the 2006 Dubai Sevens. South Africa put in a great display in horrible conditions to beat the Kiwis by 31 points to 12 and take the trophy.
