Rupert Guinness talks to Aussie Sevens star Pat McCutcheon about bringing home gold at the Commonwealth Games in The Sydney Morning Herald.
"For Australian Sevens rugby captain Pat McCutcheon all the talk about infrastructure at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi falling apart is the least of his worries.
"McCutcheon has been following Games developments while the Australian squad has been preparing for a tilt at a medal in the October 11-12 tournament in Delhi. Of all the Commonwealth Games sports, Sevens rugby might rely least on facilities.
''I have been reading the papers and seeing that the roof has fallen in at the pool and things like that … but all we need is a square pitch with a bit of grass on it,'' McCutcheon said yesterday. ''I think we have trained and played on a lot of goat tracks here in Australia … so I think we should be right with it. We are used to it.''
