@Bovidae Unbelievable

@Bovidae painfully amateur. How can the Canes not have a yellow jersey available. Surely someone is racing back to base as we speak to retrieve the yellow kit.

Cant coach pace one team clinical the other not so

Is this the Drua or the Fijian team?

@Steven-Harris Fiji U20s this year. Their ball retention is poor.
Solomon is much more suited to fullback, so expect him to be there for the NZ U20s instead of on the wing.

I’m about 39 mins through the replay. Solomon looks bloody sharp at fullback, you can’t beat pace. He’ll be another Hurley type player moving forward.
Really like the look of Will Cole at 10, looks to run the cutter really well and showed some lovely balance and pace in that first try.
Jai Tamati also playing well.
But how the hell are both teams wearing white. Rugby gets this wrong so often.
It’s nice to see some real speed in the outsides with Kennedy and Solomon.

Jeez this Will Cole kid looks good. Puts a player through a gap and then follows up and then cuts right through the Fijians to score. He looks like he’s got plenty of time, a big indicator of a class player. Looks like a specialist 10 as well.
If the Canes don’t sign him the other franchises will be in talks. I know he’s been training with the main side but you never know with the Canes. Just look at how we lost Preston.

Jeez Solomon finishes an absolute screamer of a try. About three tries in this game have been better than anything I’ve seen in Super this year. Classy rugby from the Canes Under 20s. They look better coached than our main side.
You definitely can’t coach speed.

@Canes4life Good to see Cole behind a pack providing front foot ball. He was an outstanding player at Rathkeale playing at 10 and surviving on scraps and often going backwards.
He would have been enjoying that ball from Tamati.@BMR323 said in SR U20s 2025:

He would have been enjoying that ball from Tamati.Yup, a real talent. Seems composed, kicking game is very good, has a bit of pace and knows how to put other players away, on top of that he looks strong defensively. Definitely a player the Canes need to protect. First time watching him and he impressed me big time.
A performance that would have turned a few heads that’s for sure.
