There is a blog on the Under 20s Oceania tournament here: https://goo.gl/jZxODy Give it a click. .

Perese won't be available for the Oceania tournament but he will be available for the Worlds. .

Crikey, the Rebels must think a lot of Esei Ha'angana. The big lock is still only 17 and yet they made him the captain of their U20s; and now he's off to South Africa with the seniors, although he's not a contracted player. Mind you, their second-rowers have been going down like flies. He...

Yeah I've seen Kennewell play inside and outside centre for Newington, and even at fullback, but his best position was 13. Hutchison was almost exclusively a 13 at Riverview and going back a few posts - Jaffer-Williams played mostly wing but moved to 13 last year at Joeys to accommodate...

^^^^^^ Good point and I'm sure they'll take that into account, and maybe they won't take any Sevens players. Or maybe some of the Sevens players, who have a four-week break between Singapore and Paris, will train and play the odd game at Bond in the Oceania tournament. They shouldn't be give...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Regarding my post earlier this morning - two back, post#1126. There were a few changes to be made to it so rather than say what the changes are, I recast it. It probably needs another read. Sorry about that. .

Edited 12:10 pm Earlier today I posted that that the Super Rugby teams always have first call on the Under 20 players but I was wrong. I have probably mentioned it before in this thread too. The real goss is that that every age-eligible Super Rugby contracted player will be available for the...

Edited Those are about the right numbers that are used every year for and after Bond. If memory serves, a 28 man team for the Worlds was named after Bond , as you mentioned, and for the last few years they came to Sydney for the Narrabeen camp and a two-match warm up, before they got on the...

No, there's no separate thread and I hope nobody starts one for it - nor the World U20s - because they will be zapped. Sorry to be rude but we've had these different threads pop up in prior years and we've found out since that one thread for everything worked better, though multi-threads...

Was away for a while; so apologies. But now everybody will be finished work I suppose - or nearly in Perth; so probably no need to now. .

As mentioned in a couple of other threads - just in case it is missed. Whoa - can't reformat the above properly but it probably makes sense .

We have this discussion about big N regularly. He was a decent U20 player - not a super star as people often say - and he was a terror in club rugby in the Shute Shield. He was in the Tahs' squad - I think in what we would now call the EPS but I could be wrong. He played well in one trial...

Oh - the penny drops. Thanks - I'll let myself out - been doing that a lot lately. .

"…this year"?? Didn't know that - or did you mean it was changed this year for 2018?? The WR (World Rugby) U20 site still has the 2017 programme going from 31 May to 19 June. http://www.worldrugby.org/tournament/1594/fixtures .

Wow - can't get my ancient laptop to get the live stream to work here at Allianz, though the internet is working fine. Keep the reports coming. .

Ozee316 has written an excellent preview here: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/preview-waratahs-v-crusaders-2/ Give it a click. .

When I wrote earlier that he was in the Supplementary Squad I was going by the Tahs team profiles, but they obviously don't update them. If Hegarty were to be overlooked I thought Deegan would have been given the nod but now it's official that Mason is starting - and as you say, good luck to...
