[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 652583, member: 56232"] Last year England U20's wins were put down to size as in pretty much every year. There is a point where it begins to wear thin. Size alone does not get you consistant wins with regular player swaps. A good academy system consistently producing high quality young players is what does it. England have been one of the dominant U20 side since the effects of the new academy system began to be felt. Now the England national team is going the same way as young people who have been through the new system are finally reaching the seniors. At what point will size no longer be an excuse for being beaten by England? What do England need to do to earn praise for simply playing better rugby than the opposition? [/QUOTE]
