Experienced rugby commentator Grant Nisbett joins Brendan Telfer on It's Only Sport, casting an eye over the rugby sevens at the Paris Olympics as well as the All Blacks 36-man squad named for the Rugby Championship.

France - buoyed by superstar Antoine Dupont - won the men's sevens title with a convincing win over defending champions Fiji in the final 28-7, while New Zealand failed to make it past the quarter-finals and eventually finished fifth.

In the 15s game, there aren't too many surprises in All Blacks coach Scott Robertson's squad to play Argentina, South Africa and Australia in a string of tests, with flanker Sam Cane and outside back Will Jordan the headline inclusions.
