Although there were more evictions than the previous day the improved measures regarding intoxicated people entering the stadium had a positive effect on the crowd.
There were a total of 5 arrests and 30 evictions made at the stadium throughout the course of the day.
Hertz Sevens Operation Commander Inspector Simon Perry says many of the arrests were for minor offences such as fighting and offensive behaviour.
"Police will again be carrying out high visibility patrols throughout the city until 9am on Sunday morning.
Inspector Perry says that police staff at the stadium have noticed a higher standard of behaviour than in previous tournaments.
