Ah, that explains the likes of Jac Pritchard and Will Evans being sort of caught between the two teams.
We definitely seemed to be on the wrong end of some of the 'maturity' of those Argentine players!

Don't forget tho Will Evans is injured, there are quite a few who have missed this year through injury, on the flip side due to the age range are available next year |

Tremendous fight, especially when down to 14, and no little skill, but this is the second game where we've thrown away a lead which suggests a) there's lots of work to do on controlling and killing off games and b) lack of power in the last quarter is a real worry across Welsh rugby.
We all know depth is an issue. But we were so fluid early on, and then as they get tired, they revert back to one up charges and don't have the power for that kind of game. So we need to work on being able to play a 'power-appropriate' game for 80 mins.

Not all doom and gloom beat Spain with perhaps a close to second string team today and in the 5-8 playoffs probably starting against England which is better than Ireland and Scotland managed so arrange the words “straws clutching at “ into a well known phrase or saying.

But it's probably a fair reflection of the improvements these emerging nations have made whilst we've gone backwards

I suspect we will end up beating Italy to 7th whereas there is a risk Ireland and Scotland could slip out of the top tier competition.It is Scotland’s first season back for a while and I wouldn’t bet on them staying up - not sure how much their professional structure supports their U20 team.

Not a great competition for the Northern Hemisphere. Final between NZ & Sa. Argentina beat France to third spot and Australia beat England to 5th. A last minute try against Spain saved Ireland from dropping into the second tier.

THE INCIDENT
Rovigo – It wasn’t enough that they disrupted with loud shouts and bad behavior the entire evening for the audience at Voices for Freedom, one of the final events of the Polesine Pride organized by Arcigay. They even got on stage, ignoring every boundary of common decency. The absurd scene occurred Saturday night in Piazza Matteotti, and the protagonists were a group of under-20 players from the Welsh national rugby team, who are staying in the area for the World Rugby U20 Championship. At first, they were stopped by festival staff and security. One of them even grabbed the microphone from actress Silvia Ferreri (on stage with journalist Tiziana Ferrario and politician Michela Marzano) to shout incomprehensible phrases. No one was hurt. There was no physical violence. But their disruptive behavior ruined a peaceful event and is now under investigation by law enforcement. The same group, according to eyewitnesses, also caused damage to the Capital hotel, where they are staying in Rovigo, breaking furniture and disturbing guests. When contacted, the hotel management preferred not to comment. POOR BEHAVIOR On Saturday evening, a few hours before the incident in Piazza Matteotti, they were already the subject of complaints in Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II, where they were seen intoxicated and wandering aimlessly. They seemed to be completely unaware of where they were or how to get back to their hotel. Residents report that they were confused, asking for directions, shouting, and urinating on walls. At one point, they tried to enter the Monalisa Lounge Bar, but were denied access. Shortly after, they headed towards Via Badaloni, where they began knocking over signs and furniture from restaurants and bars. One man was caught in photos swinging a large street sign, another was seen toppling chairs and bins. JUMPING ON STAGE Martina Attili, from the band Suspension of Judgment, was performing on stage when one of the Welsh players jumped up and interrupted the performance. He then stood awkwardly at the back of the stage as if nothing was wrong. The event’s MC, actor Michele Lionello, had to step in and take the microphone back, urging the player to leave. Soon, others in the group began shouting from the audience. At that point, the carabinieri (Italian military police) tried to intervene but struggled to calm the situation. The players ignored orders and continued behaving in a disorderly manner, preventing the police from doing their job. In fact, some officers had to be pulled from another assignment — securing the scene of a homicide that happened earlier in the day in Boara — just to deal with the rugby players. THE HOTEL At Hotel Capital, damage is still being assessed. Management has confirmed that furniture and objects in the rooms and common areas were broken or moved. No official complaint has yet been filed, but if the situation worsens, it’s likely to become a legal matter. Arcigay organizers and city officials expressed dismay at the behavior, particularly as it occurred during an event meant to promote respect, dialogue, and inclusion. THE MANIFESTATION Voices for Freedom is a long-standing festival of music and civil rights organized by Arcigay Rovigo. This year’s edition included artists and speakers like Ferreri, Ferrario, and Marzano. Other performances came from Martina Attili, Leo Miglioranza, and bands like Amarcord, Zagreo, Numa, and Atarassia. The festival was also a tribute to Monica Lovari. |
