I'd suggest they should add the Newbridge backrow, Kelly, to that list. In the (?) Semi-final v Rock, he was the best backrow on show for first 50 mins.

Not sure what age group he is

[sunshiner1]

Is Mark Morrissey injured at the moment or is he just not part of the set-up? Thought he would have appeared from some of the under-age sides if fit.

Unclear there were rumours he failed to get an academy offer and had left the setup..

Very good list , would have Andrew Quinn blackrock I’m there as well

He’s dropped from the system completely and is staying in Dublin playing rugby with UCD. Very unusual for someone to start 2 years of Irish u20s to not get an academy offer

[Lock9541]

Daniel Hawkshaw is off to Connacht

[Lock9541]

Charlie Tector went off in a stretcher. The game was paused for a while he was on the ground for about 20 minutes

[Blue Man]

Daniel Hawkshaw is off to Connacht

Along with David?

Sorry to hear that. I understand why. He's missing that vital inch and little bit of physicality for a second row but he could transition to a 6 handily enough for the pro game. Hope he gets picked up elsewhere.

Yes

Not a bad decision centre is one of the areas Connacht are lacking, could be a chance to break through early

Any update on the final score?

Was 7-5 at half time to Leinster A, then Leinster won the game like 63-5. University side were good initially until they ran out of fitness , Leinster were just by far the fitter team. Sam Predgergast and Dylan O’Grady scored 2 tries each. Chris Cosgrave and Rob Russell got over once or twice aswell.

Surprising about Morrissey, if he got up to 103 or 105kg (u-20 weight is 98kg), he could be a handy, athletic, line-out jumping 6.

Oisin Michel joining Connacht Academy.

Ireland u20 will play 3 games in the summer, against England, France and South Africa.

Good signing for Connacht. Michel looked good for the U20s.


3 tough tests for the U20s. Hopefully they'll continue on where they left off.
