WR U20 Championship 2025

[Dolamite]

This team is so bad

[cgrant]

Unable to put three passes in a row.

[African Monkey]

Rico Simpson has a big boot on him.

About the only positive I can see out there.

[AmberArmy]

Horrible performance, poor skills, poor coaching? Maybe they could put a bit more effort into actual game training and less into haka practice

Frank Vaenuku is pretty good. That's also... something?

[booboo]

Score?

[AmberArmy]

@booboo 14-5 to us

Score?

14-5 to the Baby Blacks. But the real losers are all of us watching this game.

[booboo]

Final score or still playing?

Can't find a live score anywhere.

One of the worst Rugby teams I've ever seen to represent New Zealand. If this is the future of All Black Rugby, we're fucked!

Yeah he does look good. Nice hit he put in earlier.

[AmberArmy]

@Mauss it really is shocking to see this sort of lack of skills at this level isn’t it?

[Mauss]

Please Randall, I just want to go do something else, why are you like this?

[Victor Meldrew]

Baker looks like a clear Red on an off-field review (not that it matters)

[Victor Meldrew]

What an utterly shit performance

[Dolamite]

This team can’t even do this basics like catch a pass. Scrum got destroyed, they seem to have a fetish for only sending 2 players to every ruck and lost a lot of ball. Terrible coaching job

I'd like just one U20 tournament where the ball isn't a sweaty lump of soap. Don't get me wrong, the NZ U20s absolutely need to do better but it would be nice, that's all I'm saying.

Maybe then the rugby would be a bit more watchable.

[sparky]

All over.

But, good God, that was a shit performance from a really bad team.

[cgrant]

This is the poorest NZ team I have ever seen.

I like how the Italian captain let off about 10 F bombs in the post match interview
