Watched England Under 19's play Ireland. Finished 32-32. We had it won till time was up and they got a last second try and conv.
Fair enough I suppose as we were down in the second half and fought hard, but we weren't the best side.

Aye, looks like football is our best bet (hopefully* If Marcus Smith is fit and we use the wings, we may have a chance because Ireland certainly will do that. If we rely on the beefsteak approach...well...we'll see. Que Sera.

Light is found in the darkest of places. Great wins for Italy and England - reckon you'd have got fair odds on that at the start of the day. Pretty decent performance by England, with tries!...

Think the DG was a gimmie, TD. We were playing penalty advantage under the sticks anyhow! :-)

Crazy game this rugby. The reports say.

.Down 21-05 at one stage, away in France; to turn around the game and win 45-31 is exceptional from this England 20s side. It's been a brilliant U20 Six Nations this year and England are fully deserving winners. That only tells the half of it.

At half time we didn't look in it and the Pierre's were flying. Suddenly, on the hour we were in front by sheer guts and will power. Hope you saw this Worthy, because England Six Nations Under 20's champions for 2024. Still can't believe we won this, but all credit to the kids. They were incredible. :oyea:

Missed it, mate, was out at a gig. Reads like a cracker, though. Looking forwards to this evening's games, although unless Scotland beat Ireland by more than 7 and Ireland don't get a BP for tries, the England game will just be a wrap up fame with nothing riding on it..

Some comfort. The Seymour's get the wooden spoon. Congrats to Ireland on 6 Nations Champs but no Slam and no Triple Crown. Just France England left, would be a decent statement were England to win, but that still looks a big ask, away...

Pretty good account if ourselves, even in a narrow defeat. Was certainly a game of four halves.

Oh and Italy. Well done them, too.

Brilliant game, England fought the good fight but gave France too much ball. We handed it to them on a plate with penalties. Ramos missed what, one out of six? . It was almost a repeat of the under 19's last night....almost.

Yeah, although we never did get to see a replay of the last one, that won it for France...but a no arms tackle in the last two minutes is poor discipline.
