Harri Morgan is a very good 9 and will feature heavily for Os U23 this season. Far better than anything we have at that age. Bear in mind he still qualified for U18s this season, so has 2 more seasons again. Blacke played as expected. Like a guy without that X factor

I liked the All Black 9 who looked about 12 but was one of their most important players usually.

The Wales Under 20s coaching set up should have been removed after last years World Cup, the coaching set up is inept with basic skills like passing set piece and quick ball ignored for slow one up bish bash rugby real shame with such quality outside backs in squad almost totally ignored throughout .

Maybe - but far too often he was miles from the breakdown... I expect it was the coaches' fault... they should have told the players that first man to the breakdown carries on the move in those circumstances - far too often, there was a long delay waiting for the Wales 9s to get there. If the 9 gets trapped in a ruck or whatever, the coaches MUST make sure the boys have the freedom to play the ball.

Yes, that was my point - coaches need to realise that if the 9 is trapped a long way from the ball, the other players should have the freedom to get on with it. |

Well done France.
Very deserved winners. England were lucky to be as close as they were, in the end. |

End-game punch-ups appear now appear to be the rage after the Argentina-Wales conflagration. But remember it happened to us first ,and others, totally lacking in originality, are merely copying. Seriously though, at least the ref in France-England U20 final had enough sense to ignore it and not start dishing out red-cards willy-nilly when almost everyone could have had one..

I posted this in the Conbeer thread, but maybe it should have gone here:
Congratulations to Wales on beating Italy 34-17 to secure 7th place at the U20 World Cup:
Dan Davis showed up well with a try and a break down the wing with an inside pass to create another for Llewellyn. Ryan Conbeer also scored... both Ryan and Dan's tries involved 3 yard dashes with a bit of elusiveness and strength to evade and fend off tackles - not the most spectacular tries ever, but they got the job done! |
