I reckon the Naas U18.5 would give a good account of themselves against most of the schools (other than the top 3 or 4)

Andrew Osborne just back from injury otherwise i'd say hed have made the 19s squad.

Charlie Sheridan looks a player too, assume he is in the 18s club/schools squad.

Six of the Blackrock sixth years are playing Ireland age grade. Most I’ve ever seen representing Ireland from one school. Huge achievement but not surprising

No Alan Spicer for the u18's, not sure whether I'm that surprised. No Tadhg Brophy from Newbridge in either team ( dunno what age grade he is ) is surprising however.

Spicer wasnt named in earlier camps, but he might be in the 2nd u18 side along with Brophy wait and see.

Pretty sure that Rock have had more than that before. They had nine in an Irish Schools squad [1996 Dream Team lads – Casey, Cullen, Gibney, Woods, Scally, Quinlan, Johnson, Keating, somebody else, maybe Stephen Tanner or Keith Murphy] that toured Australia unbeaten.

What do you mean by a "2nd u18 side"? How does that work and who do they play?

There has been for 20+ years 2 irish under 18 squads playing each year. Clubs squad and a schools squad
they combined a few years back tho unfortunately no youths/clubs players named in the "schools" squad this year.
There will be irish qualified players from england/wales etc in the other squad as they dont appear allowed to play for the Ireland u18 schools team
