2017 New Zealand U20s

[Stargazer]

Another missed kick from Perofeta. Shit with the boot.

[Crash]

That was a weird try - looks like England lost sight of the ball in the sunlight, and Aumua just a one man wrecking machine crashes over

[Crash]

Bloody good TO by Jacobsen

[Stargazer]

Try Caird! England are being humiliated. Conversion is good: 57-12 NZ after 68 minutes.

[Stargazer]

Try England. Not converted. 57-17 NZ after 73 minutes.

Maybe in an alternate universe.

Another try to Jacobson. Awesome. 62-17 NZ. It's almost time.

[Stargazer]

Yes, now the kick is good!

Full time: 64-17 to NZ.

Champions!!!

[Crash]

And they take the record with the Perofuture conversion!!! 64-17 Well deserved guys!

[Crash]

That was a bright spark for NZ in a bad weekend for us....

[Stargazer]

Great tournament from these young players! Left nothing to doubt, very convincing victory. Some awesome talent on show. Easy to imagine that several of these players will make it into Super Rugby and then the All Blacks. Really looking forward to watching these players develop further. Proud moment.

Excellent win. Good tournament overall.

Enjoyed some of the close matches throughout the tornamanent. Georgia's win was a highlight.

[mimic]

what a great couple of weeks for perofeta..

[Steven Harris]

If I were the Blues,I would be all over Aumua,the man is human wrecking ball machine.
can't believe he was'nt nominated as one of the players of the tournament.although Jordon & Falcon have been superb,my unsung heros have been the tight five,after a shaky start earlier in the tournament,especially defending lineout drives,the set piece scrum & lineout in the main,has been very solid..

I wonder if there will be a tournament team named..?

Watching the replay now , 30 mins in , accidentally saw the result first on Fb ,
A little surprised with the one sided nature , the score ATM 26-7 doesn't quite reflect the ease they are doing it , some great skills

Is it just me or is South Africa making a 'comeback' on the world rugby stage a lot sooner than people expected?

I hope so.
When I watched one game from 8 to 15 they were all "of colour" plus some of the tighties, and many of them looked good.
Surprised they lost the semi.

[Rapido]

Watching replay. Nz bombed 2 tries early by not giving the final pass.

Our actual first try was a bullshit TMO decision.

Geez, now we bomb another on the kick pass.
