2025 World Rugby U20 Championship

[big ginger 8]

Good for Moynihan.

Unfortunately I was misinformed the person who told me mixed up O'Brien and Moynihan.

All Munster produced backrow. Need to start telling any talented schoolboy who wants to play 8 in the province that he's a hooker now. This is likely to be a fairly tough campaign. Interested to see what Wood is made of, but beyond that hoping this crop limits the damage they do for future years. Getting whacked by Scotland is embarrassing.

Doak needs to go asap

Doak needs to go asap

Agreed. I don’t think this is a massively talented crop but the baseline for any Irish 20s side these days is at worst mid table six nations. You’d miss Richie

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Can’t decide if this is a really good showing by England or Scotland that bad

Happy with our back row though, also the outside backs have some units

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Nevermind Timmons is an idiot. Deserved red

 

[Everyday EggChaser]

Great try by Redshaw

 

[saulan]

73-17 is a massive turnaround for the Junior Boks from losing at home earlier in the season to the same team. Hopefully this is a sign that greater cohesion and doing more U20 rugby in addition to this championship will keep on resulting in the team being better prepared when it gets to this tournament.

Hopefully they can keep up the momentum

 

[Which Tyler]

Dammit, got KO time wrong.
Happily, I can just start from the start.
Best avoid this thread for the next 80 minutes

 

[big ginger 8]

Georgians really mature quickly.

 

[Abraxaz]

Timmons with the grubbiest move of the tournament and it’s only just started.

Yes the Scottish player attempted a croc roll but there was no need for the elbow smash

 

[Groundhog]

Only watching Ireland a few mins (what a 50:22 from Wood) but can the commentator please find a new career. “8 alphas in white rising from the clinch” and “too much Swazz on it” are phrases I shouldn’t have to hear from presumably a man above 15 years of age

 

[Groundhog]

We should win this one. Georgians have a couple of handy players (8 and 15), but they’re largely just a scrum. We make very easy yards off the forward carries when we can hold the ball.

When are you going to issue an apology and a retraction for the hurt you've done? In particular the Moynihans who you promised an academy contract

About the same time as Putin and Netanyahu.

 

[Groundhog]

BP win. Will take that, but they absolutely should have pulled away at 14 points up. Some dumbass moments and bad mistakes (largely due to tiredness I’d say to be fair) left the door open.

Moloney at 15 played well. Few of the pack as well. Hooker is a good carrier. Beyond that not sure who stood out.
