Probably too many Tigers players on the pitchSo why did the bench players lose by even more than the starters?

Too little TBH Ilione and Chessum IMO stood out in the pack along with the Barf Hooker.Probably too many Tigers players on the pitch
In 2018 they finished 3rd. Believe that was the only timeItaly could finish 3rd. Anyone know their highest position before this? Would be huge for u20s to finish in the top half and the seniors beating Wales. Give them a real lift.
Age grade games require age grade selectionsFeel like they have just picked basically the fastest backs.
12? Stick anyone there who doesn't go in any of the other positions. The less development the better.Age grade games require age grade selections
Fattest lads in the front row,
Tallest lads in the second row,
Backs all the fastest guys,
10 is someone with either a famous dad or is good at every other sport so goes there by default
Actual rugby skill? Who cares!

All 21 or younger. Really exciting future for Tigers.
Edit: also forgot that Reffell is still only 22. Wow
As one of three 6N countries with circa 60 million people, it is high time they did pull their weight, and the competition will be all the richer and more exciting for it.So Italy beat Wales, Scotland and England. Looks like some green shoots of progress are starting to show
