NZ U20 v Junior Wallabies I

[Stargazer]

Come on lads, you have two players more on the field.

[Stargazer]

Full time: NZ U20 26 - 34 Junior Wallabies

[Stargazer]

Disappointing result, but not surprised looking at the players that were NOT playing.

Biggest change needed in the frontrow and the halves.

[Bovidae]

The forwards coach has a lot of work to do.

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae If they have one, the defence coach, too.

[Bovidae]

The assistants are Wesley Clarke and Marty Bourke, so Clarke is the man.

[Kirwan]

@Bovidae Aussies were much better at getting numbers to the rucks too.

[SouthernMann]

Irish Paul heaping praise on Finn Hurley. Calling him the best NZ back on twitter

[bobily2]

@SouthernMann He can definitely create something. Goes both ways, though.

I missed the end of the second-half, but thought Isaac Hutchinson was probably the best back
