Correct—as mentioned here in one of the quotes: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/new-aussie-competitions-part-ii-under-20s/ .

I wrote blogs about them: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/emerging-players-put-their-hands-up-in-pacific-rugby-cup/2/ http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/rugbyfest-at-daceyville-pacific-rugby-cup-junior-gold-cup-and-under-20s/2/ .

My snouts tell me that the likely backline for NSW Colts for the first game is: 9. Angus Pulver, 10. Andrew Deegan, 11. Henry Clunies-Ross, 12. David Horwitz, 13. Andrew Kellaway, 14. Harry Jones, 15. Jonny Vaux. AK (Andrew Kellaway) as an outside centre? that will be something to watch. Horwitz as inside...

There has not been a "NSW Colts" team named officially that I can find on the net but I would be surprised if those 23 were not in the 28. My understanding is that winger/fullback Harry Jones and prop Tomas Robertson will be two of the players added to the 23. I did a blog which was an...

qwerty I thought the Ireland pack was better last year - not as individuals but in their team play and they got a win in the pool game because of it. Our fellows had a skinny backlog of team forward coaching to fall back on and this is exactly why the five months of training for U20...

Anybody going to the Canberra tournament who can send in some match reports?

Injured, as is Callum Buckling and Reece Hodge; but these three players could still be considered for the IRB JWC if they can be fit for the camps. I've seen the NSW Colts play in a couple of trial games against senior players. The backs will give a good account of themselves but I fear the...

Playing for the Broncos. .

The Aus Under 20 coach, Adrian Thompson, told me that the Oz Under 20s will have the following programme after the team is selected: April 22 – May 4 – Bond University training camp Trying to arrange for games vs Fiji and Samoa but still not confirmed. May 20 -29 – Narrabeen training...

Thanks for posting that swingpass. The Vic boys have done great. I did an interview with Hugh Carpenter, the Junior Gold Manager, in this blog: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/the-junior-gold-cup-is-kicking-its-goals/ So if you want to give some feedback to the ARU please do so in the...

If the NRC goes through this year, and I hope it does, we may have to give Pulver a nickname, and "Boof" Pulver will be as good as any. The elephant in the room was always going to be the short amount of time before the announcement of the competition and the declaration of the successful...

This is from Georgina Robinson of the SMH ***************************************** Australian Rugby Union boss Bill Pulver has declared it is full steam ahead for the National Rugby Championship, despite growing concerns the project is being pushed through too fast. Plans to have the...

From Bellevue Hill actually. It can be steep depending on which way you go. .

Cunningham went to St Ives High School and played for CHS Is in 2008 as a no.8, and was then on the bench for NSW Is. He went to league and is now back. Word was in November, when he turned up to train with the Tahs as an Invited Player, that Scott Fava asked Cheika to accept him for...

Thanks EE That's a pity given the Rebels shortage of hookers in their stable. He would be one to think of in a year or two, but missing a whole season at his age is not a great start to a career. Yes, that was Robinson. I think that he's a better centre than a winger, because he's a good...

He must have because there was an article in RUPA News last year that mentioned he was in year 11 at Thornbury High School. And he didn't look like an Under 17 player in 2013. enforcer - what has happened to hooker Moli S - do you know? Don't ask me to spell his last name. .

Thanks for posting that HJ. The names at the top are well-known: McMahon for his play for Oz Sevens and for starting for the Melbourne Rebels last Friday, and the others for appearing in the IRB Junior World Cup last year. But Victorian LHP Sa'aga is one to watch for the future. This lad...
