Understanding Rugby Sevens 2025 Perth
Rugby Sevens 2025 Australia teams will be scattered into three groups in the pool stage. Here they are:
Pool A | Pool B | Pool C |
South Africa | France | Fiji |
Argentina | Spain | New Zealand |
Australia | Great Britain | Kenya |
USA | Ireland | Uruguay |
From every group, the top two teams will go to the quarterfinals. The organizers will take the two third-place teams into account to identify the other two quarterfinalists. The others will take part in the ninth place semis. Rugby SVNS betting odds, therefore, will reset after the pool stages.
Past Winners of Australia SVNS
- 2023/24: Argentina 31-5 Australia
- 2022/23: New Zealand 38-0 South Africa
- 2019/20: Fiji 12-10 South Africa
- 2018/19: New Zealand 21-5 United States
- 2017/18: Australia 29-0 South Africa
The Australia SVNS moved to Perth last year. Argentina beat the hosts Australia 31-5 in the first-ever Perth SVNS. Rugby Sevens 2025 predictions will not be very optimistic for the home side, who did not win the competition in seven years.
Fiji has been the most successful team in Australia’s SVNS history. Australia’s Pacific neighbors have won the competition six times. New Zealand, another regional rival, has tasted success five times in this tournament. So, PER Rugby 7s 2025 betting tips will heavily favor both sides.
While Australia had the privilege of celebrating in front of their home audience just twice, South Africa has triumphed here three times. Samoa, England, and Argentina are each one-time Australia SVNS champions.
Australia 2025 Rugby Sevens Odds & Favorites
Rugby sites in Australia have just dropped the 2025 Perth Rugby Sevens odds. Here are the top five contenders in Perth:
Argentina 7s @ 4.50 (7/2)
Argentina 7s are the only champions in Perth Sevens history so far, so 2025 Australia 7s predictions are strongly favoring them for another title run.
Fiji 7s @ 4.50 (7/2)
Fiji has been wildly successful on Australian soil and Osea Kolinisau’s men are also in great form lately. So, Fiji will be a common pick in PER Rugby 7s 2025 betting tips as well.
South Africa 7s @ 5.00 (4/1)
South Africa comes to this tournament fresh off a home win in Cape Town. The three-time Australia SVNS champions are heavily favored by bookmakers in Australia to continue their winning run.
New Zealand 7s @ 5.50 (9/2)
After missing out on the first two tournaments, New Zealand will eye their first silverware of the season this weekend. However, it’s unclear how good are the All Blacks after their shaky performances in Dubai and Cape Town.
France 7s @ 6.50 (11/2)
France has never won in Australia before, but the team’s encouraging form should make them hopeful of a historic first. Their close-to-trophy opening performances of the season give them enough optimism.
SVNS 2025 Australia Predictions
Here are our Rugby Sevens 2025 predictions for Perth:
Fiji to Win @ 4.50 (7/2)
1 (50%)
(50%) 1
Fiji has delivered medal finishes in both of the first two tournaments of the season. After winning the title in Dubai, they claimed a bronze-place finish in Cape Town. The Fijians have been in excellent form under Kolinisau, and they are the record champions in Australia. So, Fiji gets the nod in our 2025 rugby 7s PER betting tips.
Spain to Win Pool B @ 7.50 (13/2)
2 (100%)
0
Spain has been the surprise package of this campaign. Spain pulled off a distinguished fourth-place performance in Cape Town following a great grand final run in Dubai. Although France is the favorite to win this pool, we believe Spain offers great value in this market and can finish ahead of the Olympic gold medalists. At least, the odds for this outcome are seriously underestimated by the bookies.
Argentina to Win Pool C @ 2.75 (7/4)
2 (100%)
0
Argentina only has a bronze medal to show for their first two campaigns of the season, but Los Pumas will look to produce a stronger display in Australia. As defending champions, Argentina will look to start its title defense strong with a pool victory. South Africa and Australia are formidable opponents, but Argentina should be able to get the job done.
