FYI for those without sky TV access. The official World Rugby site carried live feeds of all the first round games. Hopefully for this round also.

Geo-blocked in NZ and Oz.

@Stargazer Are you sure? I watched them on my computer at work in Half Moon Bay Auckland. I had two games up at the same time on different tabs. Maybe the block failed?

[Stargazer]

@Daffy-Jaffy Maybe, or maybe they forgot to block it. WR website is clear though (see under Oceania): http://www.worldrugby.org/u20/tournament-info/watch

[Daffy Jaffy]

@Stargazer I am home Sunday night so will see it on Sky, but working Thursday so hopefully they forget again or I will miss the Ireland game.

[Toddy]

Yeah, the game against Scotland was geoblocked for me. @Daffy-Jaffy maybe your work runs through a VPN?

[Stargazer]

Sunny weather there in Georgia. Should be a good game.

[Stargazer]

Well, that went wrong quickly. Intercept try to the Italians.

[Stargazer]

7-0 Italy

[Nepia]

I thought Walker-Leawere was going to run the winger down, but clearly the Walker half of him slowed down the Leawere half.

[Stargazer]

Good kick Falcon: 7-3

[Stargazer]

And another one from Falcon: 7-6

[Stargazer]

Awesome try from Jordan! 11-7 NZ

[Stargazer]

Conversion by Falcon: 13-7 NZ

[Stargazer]

The Baby Blacks really have a problem defending against driving mauls.

[Stargazer]

Try Italy against the post after a great offload. Converted: 14-13 Italy

[KiwiMurph]

Clarke is carving up in attack.

[Stargazer]

This could become a try fest! Leger goes over at the other side of the field. Conversion is good: 20-14 NZ

[Stargazer]

Awesome! Clarke deserved that try.
Oh, and can someone shut up Lose, please?
