    2015 IRB Junior Rugby World Cup - Italy

    He passed twice, usefully, when he could have hogged; I know, it surprised me too. Played well; done good. The dominance of the JBok forwards, and the front foot ball supplied (and denied) was expected. What was more disappointing was the soft first try and some at the end, which did not owe...

    That was the day before. The match day started hot but cooled down by the end of the first game. .

    Squirrel no. 4 advises that Nucifora was in doubt and the third halfback had to be flown over in case. Squirrel no 3 says that Redden is on his way to replace Quick. Lukhan has a sore neck/shoulder and may be right for the next game. Lolo is on the way home, and Wilkin popped the same...

    2015 IRB Junior Rugby World Cup - Italy

    It was still 35 degrees in Italy Tuesday - last night our time. Reports from squirrels say we can't appreciate how muggy it is and therefore how slippery the ball - and explains why some of the passes are suddenly sub-standard, though OK when there were areas on the ball not affected. It's...

    2015 IRB Junior Rugby World Cup - Italy

    Selections are going to how we thought they would after the team for Italy was picked—play their best team in all the pool matches and roll the dice to make the finals. This was the NSW U20 strategy used by Tim Rapp for the Canberra tournament. Quick had a recurrence of his injury he...

    Well done to the Aussie boys picked. None of them made my top 3 for the Aussies, but Orr came closest; his side of the scrum was not the problem we had early in the game, and his little swerve against three "tacklers" before scoring was showing off. Tuttle has improved since the Oceania...

    I meant that Newsome played in the first game, as most folks would know, and is a Steady Eddie kind of player; so it was fair enough to try somebody else.

    2015 IRB Junior Rugby World Cup - Italy

    I was wrong about there being a lot of changes in the game for Italy: they have been minimal. Just as this team is a slight change from the first game; so this team won't be changed much for the third with changes back being on the cards. 2. No surprise here but I thought LHP Pleash would...

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - Orr didn't have a lot of trouble last year against the Italy scrum and I don't expect he will this year either. - Sandell - you're right - he is too light for a THP. I said when he was at school that he should become a hooker and I haven't given up hope. He threw to the...
