Sobering sevens Sydney battles in historic tune-ups

But the men drew 19-19 with two-time Olympic champions Fiji, losing a scrum against the feed in the final seconds before conceding.

And the women, reigning world champions who had beaten rivals New Zealand twice on Friday, were clunky in a 21-12 defeat that followed on Saturday.

The men split their Friday double-header with Fiji and looked set to steal a win on Saturday with two late tries, including a Longbottom special when he stepped twice off his right foot to beat two men then scoot over.

Levi's double was not enough after the visitors scored the game's first three tries.

Both sides have recently resumed pre-season training ahead of their world series openers in Dubai next month.
