U20s Six Nations

Ireland getting utterly shamed at some of these scrums.

Technically England are actually pretty poor at quite a few of the basics. Our passing and catching is not very good and our lineouts frequently go wrong. We are relying on lots of power to win.
 
I don't like England lack of sub usage
JVP and Riley shouldn't be playing 80mins IMO.
Especially since it's a niche position.
 
Well that penalty was a right mess
Guy who brought the tee on is gonna get a bollocking
 
I suspect most of these YouTube accounts commentating are Alpha and Groundhog
Was actually watching Love Island mate! That's Brad is an awful dose on it isn't he!

Didn't see it all, bit of a tough loss but physicality is something we can add. We are generally a bit smaller than English sides although our last few years teams have been really good! I think we have a good bit of ability and plenty of future pros which is ultimately what it's all about.

Brad is the worst but damn is this season one of the worst in terms of personalities so far.

Seen more flirting at a nunnery

Brad is a man who has never actually had to flirt in his life and it shows. At least he caused a bit of **** though. Also has anyone ever looked like more of a Tory than Chuggs.

Must be.
I'm a little annoyed at the treatment of Atkinson as well. First match Smith goes down injured, so we bring the bench FH on for... the FH wearing 15 - where he doesn't go great.
Then he goes poorly starting at 15; and now it's still only Smith being trusted at FH...

With 3 promising FHs, I expected more rotation than 1 guy getting 80 minutes each week - especially when playing with a leg injury

Can't see anything other than a decent England victory, Wales have not looked good.
 
Yeah, expect England to win this by 20 plus points as we haven't been exactly pulling up trees but also, at the same time, I expect us to raise our game against the old enemy so it could be quite close.
 
I just want Wales to look a bit more organised. Set piece has struggled but they also seems to have no shape in attack.
