U20 Championship - NZ v Wales

Victor Meldrew

Wales v NZ is turning into a good game. Wales mullered 2 tries but playing really well. Peter Lakai having a good 1st half. 5-12 to Wales

KiwiMurph

NZ pushing way too many passes and Wales smartly are taking advantage

Tim

@KiwiMurph That looked like sevens when that speculator was thrown.

MiketheSnow

Two missed opportunities for us

Could rue that

Tim

Byron Smith playing club rugby this weekend. Blues U20 player of the year, and winner of the NZ franchise tournament. Got to be better than this 10.

MiketheSnow

Our new prop did the business there

KiwiMurph

@Tim I wonder if he is eligible. I'm pretty sure he's an Aussie.

Tim

There is a French stream that has the correct frame rate. The youtube stream from WR is awful.

MiketheSnow

Another great try

Tim

@KiwiMurph Does that matter at this level?

KiwiMurph

@Tim good question

Tim

Embarrassing defence. Tangitau should stick with sevens.

Stargazer

@Tim Not sure how it works, but Folau Fakatava wasn't allowed to play for NZ U20, was he?

Victor Meldrew

The one from the IRB website is good.

Passive D which is not unusual for an NZ team.

We are being outclassed by supposedly the worst team in the 6 Nations. What's happening to our rugby?

Other countries are developing better players - probably a better overall strategy as well.

Tim

@Victor-Meldrew Yeah, that stream is at 25fps. It's the correct frame rate.

We are throwing too many hail-mary passes. Need to calm down and get some control.

Tim

19 to 5. Very unimpressive.
