We've analysed the best players from only the 15-man game to present our ultimate Team GB Sevens team that would definitely win gold at the 2021 Olympic games in Japan.
FORWARDS
Maro Itoje (England): Every sevens team needs a kick-off and lineout specialist may be required. No one fits that bill better than England's sensational Itoje. His aerial ability and all-round athleticism is up there with the best. Tackles, turnovers, off-loads and bags of enthusiasm - Itoje would bring a medal-winning game to a Team GB Sevens team.
Jamie Ritchie (Scotland): The Scot would be the beast up front. A tackling machine, with massive go-forward and ferocious clear-outs at the ruck - Sam would give GB a hard edge that all good teams need.
Justin Tipuric: The Wales flanker has an all-round game well suited to Sevens. Turnovers at breakdown, high work rate and great handling skills all add up to a big impact for Team GB.
BACKS
Stuart Hogg (Scotland): He is the Scotland captain and the man that makes them tick. When he's not in the field, the Scots struggle to mix it with the big teams. Playmaker, motivator, kicker - he'd be our captain on this stage.
Finn Russell (Scotland): His undoubted talents would find a natural home in the shortened form of the game. His passing ability and knack of manipulating space and defenders would be prizes assets.
Jacob Stockdale (Northern Ireland): He burst on to the international scene a few seasons ago and hasn't looked back.
To date he has scored 16 tries in his 26 Ireland appearances.
