2017 New Zealand U20s
-
Excellent try by England. Delayed pass did the trick.
JABs lead 12-7 after 20
-
Poor Tom Parton got smashed there by Aumau.
Will Jordan slicing it up on broken play. Good support play and we're in again.
JABs lead 24-7.

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?

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

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