They just tweeted: Queensland Reds ‏@Reds_Rugby 37s37 seconds ago We are currently having difficulties with the live stream of the Reds U20's. An update will be posted when fixed. At least that means I can quit mashing refresh on the Reds homepage!

A number of these exports are U19's. It will be interesting to see whether they put down roots or whether they head "home" for their U20's year. Either way great to see opportunities opening up for developing players Australia wide.

Thanks for info HTC. (Was going to press "Like" but feel bad about giving a thumbs up to any news about injury.)

Strong QLD team but no Rodda or Tui in the 2nd row. What's the story there?

Also noted Jordon Uelese and Angus Fowler on the Rebels bench.

Not wrong this time. He did play in that tournament.

Wow! Is this a development comp or "pay to play"? Seriously, given the main aim of JGC was to broaden the talent identification and development base, restricting participation to those who can spare a lazy grand is nuts.

Interesting question. I note that the 2015 National U20 Championship Manual included the following: A Player is eligible to participate in the Championship if he fulfils the following requirements: i. Age window; and ii. World Rugby Regulation 8 It is the responsibility of each...

Note to ARU - Why should we have to fill in the gaps and guess? You have a section of your website dedicated to U20's. Nothing posted since the JWC. Since that time a new national competition has been created, franchise based squads have been assembled and are training and national coaches...

A few more details to throw into the mix. Apparently NSW will run 2 U20 teams while QLD, ACT, Victoria and WA will have 1 team each. I don't have any detail on the fixtures but it looks like WA will play 3 curtain raisers for Super Rugby (2 at NIB and 1 at Suncorp). There will be 2 further...

Does anyone close to the action know the reasoning behind this? "The JGC exists to support the long term development of potentially talented players in the U15-17 year age groups through an accessible and nationally coordinated and consistent development and competition program delivered...

Toro Reedy eligible in both 2016 and 2017.

Toro Reedy from Perth Spirit has had at least 1 game already and is in this weeks lineup.

U20's is going to be mimicking Super Rugby rather than NRC in 2016. Each franchise will field a team over 4 matches in February/March, before the Australian U20 squad selection in April. Maybe we can have an U19's JGC as a lead into U20's (in a distant and more prosperous future). On JGC...

From a results perspective, combining Northern Inland (3 wins from 10 games in 2014*) and North Coast (0 wins from 10) is understandable. Similarly, including Illawarra (0 wins from 10 games) in a larger catchment has obvious benefits in terms of competitiveness. The amalgamation of Central...

HJ you weren't really expecting Australian Rugby administrators to count accurately were you? The financial state of rugby in this country would suggest numeracy is not a strong point.

Interesting developments on the 2016 U20 program. This from the RugbyWA website: "STATE UNDER 20S The Academy program encompasses the State 20s squad that will play in the Super U20s Tournament in February and March 2016. This tournament will run in conjunction with Super Rugby and involves...
