Well done to all those involved in their journey and hopefully we can get a win against NZ!
Despite the debacle that is the senior team, schoolboy rugby continues to be a shining light in the Aus rugby landscape.
Incredible, well done to the young man.Aden Ekanayake is one of the best stories in schoolboy footy.
He was never seen as a potential 1stXV player. He barely snuck in to the team… I believe he even played some of his junior footy in the B’s.
As of today he has captained the under 18 Australian 7’s team, and the junior wallabies….

NSW U18s undefeated but only 5 starters? Also, I cant remember seeing a lot of these QLD names play last week. Were they in the Schools teams or the academy teams?
Wasn’t even selected at backrow.. selected in the second row.It’s interesting to see that Sam Niuala was chosen in the CAS 2nds team but then is starting in Aus schoolboys
he didnt wear the right colour socks in the CAS competitionWasn’t even selected at backrow.. selected in the second row.
Not in the top 6 backrowers for CAS, but the best no 8 in the country..
just shows the continued inept choices of the CAS selectors.
Fowler Australian U/20’s # 10 !!I feel like this first game must be merely a trial, because there's no way some of those NSW boys are actually sitting on that bench.
I mean the vice captain Hwi Sharples has been benched. Hopefully that's a tell we are just hiding our best for the second game on Monday.

Sammy is a no 8 every day of the week not a Lock, he's a super star of a kid on and off the field. I hope he has a blinder.Wasn’t even selected at backrow.. selected in the second row.

Why though? The NZ team will 100% be putting their best team forward. Why aren’t we? It’s so clear. No wonder Australian rugby is a joke. No wonder everyone goes to league. AppalledI like Walsh but Fowler was included in the initial U20s squads before the WC.
He played only bs up until u16s but I thought barker couldn’t develop playersAden Ekanayake is one of the best stories in schoolboy footy.

I think rugby australia are doing this to target walsh, they see him as high risk of leaving to league or uk as his brothers did. Fowler is already contracted but giving walsh every opportunity is gonna make him more likely to stay in the 15 man codeWhy though? The NZ team will 100% be putting their best team forward.
