SVNS Series Evolution: Hutchison Back, Australia Ready for Intense Competition
Argentina swiftly took control of the Cape Town SVNS final last month, securing a significant victory over the underdog Australia, led by Marcos Moneta. Despite showcasing their potential during the SVNS Series, Australia faced exhaustion after defeating South Africa and Fiji, ultimately succumbing to a 45-12 defeat against New Zealand in the Cup final. Looking to bounce back in front of their home fans in Perth, the Aussie sevens side receives a major boost with the return of Henry Hutchison, who spent 12 months on the sidelines due to an ACL injury. Hutchison expressed his excitement to compete at home, acknowledging the added pressure but emphasizing the team’s determination to win. Reflecting on the changes over the past year, Hutchison noted the overall improvement in the SVNS Series, with higher intensity, maturity, and elevated standards. He praised the team’s resilience and performance in Cape Town, highlighting their ability to regroup after setbacks in Dubai.
