Super Rugby Australia - U19 and U16

Posted this yesterday, but think it got lost in a forum reset.

Anyhow Rugby Australia this week announced Super Rugby Australia, a short off-season comp to take place in September and October, involving the four Australian Super Rugby teams, presumably minus the Wallabies Squads (who have games against Argentina and NZ)

Seemingly being run as a replacement to the former NRC.

More importantly for the schoolboys, or recently graduated schoolboys, it also includes U19 and U16 comps.

U19 comp to run Saturday 27 September to Sunday 2 November, as double headers with the main comp.

U16 competition will start two weeks later, running from Saturday 27 September to Sunday 2 November.

All games on Stan Sport.

Tough choice for those selected who would be sitting their HSC over this period.

They played the same things last year albeit not in conjunction with men's games.

Doubt many will be doing HSC, they'll either have finished last year and be in the U19s or be too young.

That's why they play U19s rather than U18s.

I wonder how NSW will go in both age group this year. They tend to do well in the U16 then FAIL in U19.

FAIL is on the harsh side but fair given their dominance through 16s and 18s in the last few years.

Brumbies deserve credit for astute recruitment in the 19s really. NSW has only lost what 3 games in 2 years in the 19s. QLD is probably the one really desperate for a win. Haven't won it and haven't beaten NSW in it yet.
