    Did someone pull the plug on the coverage?

    As alluded to earlier: quality of broadcast has been shit. Wouldn't be surprised if some ham-fisted contractor pulled a plug out to charge his phone.

    They've now updated the score. Still a white screen.

    Aussies almost in the corner but knocked on.

    Tuputupu looks like an Asafo Aumua clone. Hits really hard.

    Aussies in again, under the posts. Expect it to be 64-12 with conversion.

    Was really enjoying that until the coverage left.

    Bell, Cashmore, Higgins, Hotham, Sititi, Lakai and Rova were my picks.

    The passing skills from our 9-10-12 were excellent and noticeably quicker and accurate than the Aussie inside backs. How smooth is Rova’s passing!

    Man that was sublime footy from our boys.

    Springer, Godfrey, Rova, Bell, Hotham, Lakai, Higgins, Cashmore all superb. Great signs for the future.

    Not bad from Argentina. Their first Oceania U20s tournament and finishing above Australia.

    @Canes4life Spark Sport doesn't post highlights clips on YouTube. Only on their own site, so subscribers only. The All Blacks account doesn't post them either. That's also why we haven't been able to post highlights of the other games. 🙁

    @Stargazer Lots of talent for NZ Super franchises next year. Wonder how they would stack up against Northern Hemisphere and South African sides.

    @SBW1 Yes, this has been a good year, but unfortunately, not able to test them against the best of the U20 Summer Series. I'd like to see them do well in NPC first, before we're talking NZ SR franchises. For some this may be their ceiling.

    The U20 World Cup will be back next year, but a lot of this year's players won't be eligible anymore.

    No doubt there will be more, but at this stage I only know that Godfrey will still be eligible. Players who were overlooked because of their age, I assume that's why Cooper Flanders wasn't in the squad, will also come in. Basically, players who were in the 2021 NZ schools squad will probably be among the main contenders and some other players who have matured into good prospects.

    Finn Hurley and Taylor Cahill will be eligible for next year both were in that 2021 Schools team.
    Macca Springer is still only 19 I think he qualifies as well as he is not 20 until next year.
