2017 New Zealand U20s

I'm a bit confused. I thought England were the custodians of the scrum. Can someone explain why they are getting smashed? Thanks.

Meanwhile on the other channel, Wales just blew a try to go up by 3.
7 mins to go and Italy leads 24-22

Not a great year for tight five talent. Couple of injured props including our best tighthead (Street) and the best lock in this age group is in Argentina with the seniors.
Men against boys today and could get pretty ugly

Compared to recent NZ U20s sides, this looks quite a bit better. There are a number of standouts, but lovely pass on the 9. It's also nice to see some muscular & athletic forwards (2, 4, 8 )

Will this mean Craig Philpott being lured away by a lucrative overseas coaching contract? :man_biking_tone2: :man_biking_tone2:

Enari played a few games for the Cantabs last year and looked okay. Has definitely got fitter in the past 6-9 months.

@Higgins Highlanders
Phew, anywhere will do, as long as it is year round full time. God can you imagine what him and Hammett could do.

Wow on this evidence, this U20 side would shred the Maori side that ran out on Saturday...some bloody good players coming through

The English defence has been a bit optional at times. With so much easy metres it's hard to read too much into it. We see how these players develop when they have less space and time.

@Billy-Tell True, but their work rate is about 100 times that of the MABs.
