The men's World Rugby Seven series continues. Argentina's rugby sevens team, 'Los Pumas 7's', has defined its rivals for the fourth stage of the World Rugby Seven series, which will take place next weekend, February 7 and 8, in Perth, Australia. After finishing in seventh place in the Singapore Sevens, the Argentine team will seek to turn the page and fight for the title again, according to the Argentine News Agency (NA). The team, led by Santiago Gomez Cora, will be in Group A alongside Fiji, South Africa, and Spain in a high-demand zone. Meanwhile, Group B will be made up of New Zealand, Australia, and Great Britain, completing a competitive picture with several main title contenders. The Perth stage comes after three stops already held in Dubai, Cape Town, and Singapore, where the performance of Los Pumas 7's was from best to worst. Currently, Fiji leads the overall circuit standings with 52 points, followed by New Zealand with 48, and South Africa and France with 46 points each. It should be remembered that the scoring system awards 20 points to the winner of each stage, 18 to the runner-up, and 16 to third place, while teams that finish seventh and eighth only add 8 and 6 points, respectively. With this outlook, the Perth stage appears as a key opportunity for Los Pumas 7's to recover ground in the ranking and return to being protagonists of the circuit.
