Shanghai Sevens rugby no-shows open the way for a Korea v HK showdown...

...or is this the year for China to surf a wave of fierce patriotism and come through in their home tournament? Late stage withdrawals of Japan and Kazakhstan (the former is perhaps understandable given the flaky conditions in China, but what happened to the Kazakhs?) have opened it up to make this most exciting of events a wide open race. It would defy the ods for Korea to make it four from four and surely HK will nail one eventually but how about the others? Standards are rising in this competition and the crowd is mooted to be a fair bit bigger this year so the atmopshere and the action should be awesome...
No need for visas if your stay in Shanghai is less than 48 hours and you are transiting to somewhere else...at least for some nationalities...
