The video has been taken down now but that was awesome. I'm sure many people will be happy seeing that arrogant idiot getting whacked.

Re: Rugby: Random Discussion Thread.

What an amazing turnaround. Tale of 2 halves, the only difference being that Leinster are scarily clinical when they get on top.

Re: Rugby: Random Discussion Thread.

Northampton players just sitting there wondering wtf just happened.

Sean O'Brien and Jamie Heaslip are just complete animals. I'd have given MOTM to O'Brien personally.

England juniors (U21's I think) reach the World Cup Final beating France in the Semi 33-18.
We will face NZ (the holders) who beat Australia in the other semi 37-7

Eng v NZ Junior WC Final is 6pm on Sunday

p.s NZ put 90 past Wales so they must be good.

It's U20's. I imagine you will get humped. But it is NZ in a WC...

Re: Rugby: Random Discussion Thread.

FT ENG 22-33 NZ

Good effort from England, I expected them to cave after NZ outclassed us for the last half of the first 40 scoring a try at the death.
NZ deserved winners and the size of the guys is ridiculous.

NZ.fly-half Anscombe looks to be a great player. His kicking for goal or touch was sublime.

We may finally have an exciting attacking prospect again in Christian Wade, who scored 2 trys, that boy can run.

The game ended with a scuffle which was a shame.

NZ have never lost an U20's game
