You can see Hurley's limitations in contact due to his lack of size.
Some porous defence there.
Ronan Leahy gets a hat-trick. Our defence looks more disjointed in the 2nd half. Not converted by Jack Bowen.
21 - 31 to Oz (I think?)
Rory Woods (19) and Che Clarke (21) have come on; Lakai (8) has gone off. I missed who the other player was that was subbed off.
Scoring like tennis, Aussies turn next.
Try to Fin Hurley. Ajay Faleafaga misses the conversion.
26 - 31 Oz
I think they said Xavi Taele has left the field? Replaced by whom?
Ropeti is the lock replaced.
An Aussie scored a penalty goal. Didn't hear the name.
26 - 34 Australia
I think an Aussie got yellow carded? Reserve prop Nick Bloomfield.
Now reserve hooker Liam Bowron also yellow. Aussie two men down.
Two Aussie players going off, because there is a scrum. One of them a winger. The other?
Come on lads, you have two players more on the field.
Full time: NZ U20 26 - 34 Junior Wallabies
Disappointing result, but not surprised looking at the players that were NOT playing.
Biggest change needed in the frontrow and the halves.
The forwards coach has a lot of work to do.
@Bovidae If they have one, the defence coach, too.
The assistants are Wesley Clarke and Marty Bourke, so Clarke is the man.
@Bovidae Aussies were much better at getting numbers to the rucks too.
Irish Paul heaping praise on Finn Hurley. Calling him the best NZ back on twitter
