The gang's ringleader was sentenced to 35 years in prison and the other six men were sentenced to between 12 and 29 years for multiple rapes and assault against the two victims.
Handing sentence on Wednesday, Judge Jonathan Seely said "both girls were highly vulnerable, both had deeply troubled backgrounds and were known to the authorities".
He added: "They were highly susceptible to the advances of these men and others, and both were sexually abused by numerous other men.
"They were passed around for sex - abused, humiliated, degraded and then discarded. Both were seriously let down by those whose job it was to protect them."
