    Rugby sevens fans will notice some big names missing from the Commonwealth Games team lists, including former All Blacks Sevens captain Tim Mikkelson


    Tokyo Olympic gold medallist Ruby Tui is also only listed for the Black Ferns Sevens, as a non-travelling reserve.

    Before his team sets off for Birmingham, New Zealand women's coach Corey Sweeney is ensuring the players stay match fit - with the flu and Covid circulating.
