Paquin named to Dubai Dream Team

Karen Paquin has been named to the official HSBC Dubai Sevens Dream Team. The Canadian forward was outstanding once again, impressing with her physicality and work rate. Joining her up front is tough Australian hooker Amy Turner and England’s World Cup star Emily Scarratt.

New Zealand’s Kelly Brazier gets the nod in the backs, along with two Russians – captain and playmaker Nadezda Kudinova and top try scorer Alena Mikhaltsova. Australia’s star winger Ellia Green rounds out the group, rewarded for some highlight reel sprinting.
