 For the third time in four years England are the IRB Junior World Championships after overpowering Ireland 45-21 in the decider. Despite finishing second to last in the Six Nations England continued to enhance their growing statue at the age group level winning the tournament unbeaten for a second time. In all under-20 internationals England have won 70 out of 91 Tests.
Argentina achieved their best ever result thrashing South Africa 49-19 in the playoff for third while 2015 champions New Zealand finished with a flourish against Australia to secure fifth place. Final England: 45 (Joe Marchant 2, Harry Mallinder 2, Callum Chick, Huw Taylor; Mallinder 5 con, 1 pen, Max Green 1 pen) Ireland: 21 (Adam McBurney, Shane Daly, Max Deegan tries; Jonny McPhillips 2 con, Brett Connon 1 con) A commanding first-half and a virtuoso display by first-five Harry Mallinder powered England to victory. The English forwards were quick to stamp their authority controlling possession and territory in the opening minutes. Ireland's defence was initially resolute, but finally wilted in the 16th minute when centre Joe Marchant skinned two defenders and dashed 35-metres. No.8 Callum Chick scored from a lineout drive to make it 14-0 before Mallinder really began to impose his class on proceedings. Slick interplay with second-five Jonny Williams sent lock Huw Taylor over for England's third try and it was 21-0 at halftime. Obviously it was essential for the Irish to score first points in the second-half, but it didn't happen. Marchant broke and put Mallinder in for his first try two minutes after the restart. In the 47th minute Irish hooker Adam McBurney burrowed over from close range to briefly ignite hopes of a fight back, but those prospects were dashed moments later when Mallinder received a return pass from second-row Stan South to canter over the line. Irish fullback Jacob Stockdale has had a brilliant tourney and an electrifying 60-metre burst engineered a try for Shane Daly. However when halfback Stephen Kerins was yellow carded just before the hour mark it stymied Ireland’s progress. Marchant gathered in a cross-field kick from Mallinder at pace and spun out of the attempted tackle for England’s sixth try. Player of the Tournament Max Deegan grabbed a consolation try at the death. The Irish No.8 terrorised New Zealand. but it was England who terrorised Ireland today. They were convincing victors. 5 v 6 New Zealand: 55 (Marino Mikaele Tu’u, Hapakuki Moala-Liava’a, Quinten Strange, Isaia Walker-Leawere, Asafo Aumua, Peter Umaga-Jensen, Sio Tomkinson, Jonathan Taumateine tries; Jordie Barrett 6 con, 1 pen) Australia: 24 (Campbell Magnay, Faalalie Sione, penalty try; Nick Jooste 3 con, 1 pen) New Zealand have finished in fifth place after trouncing Australia 55-24. New Zealand ended the tourney by scoring more tries than any other country and passed 50 points in three games. However their often embarrassing scrummaging was a major hindrance on their assault for the title. In the first 20 minutes New Zealand surged to a 21-7 lead. Tries to forwards Marino Mikaele Tu’u, Hapakuki Moala-Liava’a and Quinten Strange demonstrated the Kiwis ability to offload in contact with accuracy and stretch Australia's defence on the edges. Australia scored a cracking try in the tenth minute when wing Liam McNamara defused a high kick deep in his half and wriggled past two Kiwi defenders. At the next ruck fullback Jack Maddocks sailed through a hole and set up centre Campbell Magnay. From the 23rd minute to the 29th minute New Zealand was anchored in their 22 and pummelled at scrum time. Prop Faalalie Sione powered over make it 21-14. On halftime there was further misery for the New Zealand scrum as they conceded a penalty try. Beast Australian lock Lukhan Tui proved to be a real handful. Nick Jooste and Jordie Barrett traded penalties at the start of the second half but the game-changing moment came when Australia's first-five attempted a dink over the top of the onrushing defence. Isaia Walker-Leawere preformed a charge down and strolled home from 25-metres to put New Zealand in front again. New Zealand's scrum come under further siege and in the 55th minute they lost prop Sean Paranihi to the sin bin. However New Zealand's greater bench strength and ability to translate turnovers into points would prove telling in the last quarter. Replacement hooker Asafo Aumua scored a try after a break by wing Jonah Lowe. Peter Umaga Jensen received a 20-metre miss pass from Walker-Leawere and beat the last defender to score his only try of the tournament. In the 73rd minute reserve flanker Dalton Papalii burgled possession from an Australia ruck and charged into the 22. Stephen Perofeta and Sio Tomkinson then combined to breach Australia's defence. On fulltime substitute halfback Jonathan Taumateine crossed when he supported an Orbyn Ledger breakout from deep inside his own half. Barrett was named man of the match and had an outstanding tourney. Stevenson and Strange were the other real standouts for New Zealand.  The New Zealand team to face Australia on Sunday for fifth place in the World Rugby Under 20 Championship 2016 in Salford, England, is as follows:
1. Ayden Johnstone 2. Leni Apisai (C) 3. Sosefo Kautai 4. Quinten Strange 5. Hamish Dalzell 6. Luke Jacobson 7. Mitchell Jacobson 8. Marino Mikaele-Tu’u 9. Sam Nock 10. Stephen Perofeta 11. Jonah Lowe 12. Jordie Barrett 13. Patelesio Tomkinson 14. Caleb Makene 15. Shaun Stevenson Reserves: 16. Asafo Aumua 17. Sean Paranihi 18. Alex Fidow 19. Hapakuki Moala Liava’a 20. Marino Mikaele-Tu’u 21. Jonathan Taumateine 22. TJ Va’a 23. Peter Umaga Jensen Head Coach Scott Robertson, along with Assistant Coaches Craig Philpott and Willie Rickards, have made three changes to the match day 23 which recorded an impressive 71-12 victory over Wales on Thursday. Prop Ayden Johnstone replaces Sean Paranihi who drops to the bench, Marino Mikaele-Tu’u reclaims the number 8 jersey from Hapakuki Moala Liava’a, while Peter Umaga Jensen will start from the bench, having flown over to join the squad as injury cover. Robertson was understandably delighted with the performance against Wales. “It was a great day. The shackles were off and we just wanted to express ourselves and take a little of our frustration and disappointment at not getting through to the top four. We played some good footy which is what we’re here for. These young guys are very talented and they showed that. I was most impressed with our ruthless execution and our ability to play from anywhere. Our kicking into space turned them around. They only left one player in the back field and we exposed that.” The fifth place decider against Australia gives Robertson’s young charges another opportunity to face a team they drew 1-1 with earlier in the year in a thrilling series. “The game plan this week is around playing to our strengths and creating opportunities and being fully respectful of Australia. In our preparation we’ve realised that they’ve played some really good footy and they got some really good players across the board. In our review and preview for this game we’ve discussed what was the difference between our preparation between the first and second tests against Australia, as it wasn’t as good second time around. That lesson’s long learnt and we’re really focused. It’s very exciting: if we’re going to play any team in your final game it might as well be Australia. “We haven’t changed too much for this game and we’re keen to keep on expressing ourselves. We want to finish well, although it’s never going to make up for our disappointment, the least we can do is to make everyone proud at home and ourselves as well. It’s a really tight group, as tight as last year, and they’ve worked as hard as last year.” Live Broadcast New Zealand v Australia will be broadcast live on SKY Sports 1 from 3.35am NZT. New Zealand U20 playing schedule (local times): Saturday, 25 June 4.45pm (Sunday 26 June, 3.45am NZT) v Australia, AJ Bell Stadium, Salford Tuesday, 7 June (Wednesday 8 June, NZT) New Zealand 55-0 Georgia Saturday, 11 June (Sunday 12 June, NZT) New Zealand 24-33 Ireland Wednesday, 15 June (Thursday 16 June, NZT) New Zealand 18-17 Wales Wednesday, 20 June 3.15pm (Thursday 21 June, NZT) New Zealand 71-12 Wales 25/6/2016 The Price is Right for St Kent's On National TV at a sun-soaked Rectory in 2014, Tauranga Boys' College was on the brink of causing a major upset in the last round of Super 8 against Gisborne Boys' High School.
Behind 25-26, Tauranga won a penalty with the last play of the game - in front of Gisborne's posts just five-metres out from goal. What happened next would haunt Carlos Price for some time. He tapped the ball and was tackled by the Gisborne defence. He lost the ball and Gisborne won the game. It was the fourth loss Tauranga suffered by within 10 points in that Super 8 season alone. "I don't know what I was thinking. I don't know if I was thinking at all. For a while I had the nickname quick tap," Price recalls. While such audacious play didn't endear him to the Tauranga faithful it caught the eye of St. Kentigern College Head Coach Tai Lavea. The halfback was offered a scholarship and departed for Auckland. "It was a tough decision, properly the toughest I have made in my life, but the opportunity to be involved with such a well-resourced and successful program and play 1A rugby which I believe is the toughest schoolboy competition in the world was hard to refuse," Price says. Price was actually born in Auckland and was already friends with several St. Kent's players, including current New Zealand Under-20's halfback Sam Nock. "I look up to Sam. I try to play in a similar way to him, but filling his boots is massive ask. Sam has been really helpful to me," Price says. Interestingly Nock had a rush of blood which cost St. Kent's a three year unbeaten record in the 1A competition in 2014. He threw a wayward cut-out pass which was intercepted on fulltime by Otahuhu College. Price reflects on the advice Lavea shared with Nock. "Mr Lavea told Sam he would rather see him throw a cut-out pass and back himself than go into his shell. He said to me Gisborne was offside. The licence to back yourself really appealed to me. We all make mistakes, but if you play without risk you can be left wondering." In the 2015 1A final against Auckland Grammar, St. Kent's halfback Henry Saker made a big mistake. He conceded a penalty on fulltime when his team was leading 17-15 after tries by Etene Nanai and Sesimani Tupou. Price recalls his emotions when Grammar's Wiseguy Faiane lined up the kick to win the game. "I dropped to my knees and prayed Wiseguy would miss. He is a great kicker and I felt for him, but it was such a relief he missed because all of our hard work would have gone down the drain." This Saturday St. Kent's clash with Auckland Grammar. Grammar must win otherwise their semi finals prospects are all but dashed. St. Kent's have won eight of the last nine games, but four of them have been decided by less than five points. "It's going to come down to who makes the least mistakes and taking the few chances in the game when they come," Price enthuses. St. Kent's have taken their chances in recent years. Since 2011 they have won 105 out of 115 games, including four 1A titles. What separates St. Kent's from the rest? "We have good coaches and resources, but we work really hard. It's close to a professional program here, it's pretty intense, but it pays off," Price says. In fact Price argues St. Kent's have risen the bar for everybody. "The competition is tougher this year. MAGS are looking real sharp. We lost to St. Peter's and Sacred Heart and even Aorere were hard to beat. They held us to three tries. Last year we beat them 89-0." In February Price faced tough competition in the NRL Auckland Nines kicking contest. After his mother submitted video of him kicking he won the chance to compete against Andrew Johns, Johnathan Thurston, Carlos Spencer, Daryl Halligan and Mal Meninga at Eden Park. "It was surreal to be with those guys. They were all really nice and Andrew Johns was a funny guy. Halligan won from Spencer and Mal only took one kick. I was third I think," Price recalls. In his spare time Price enjoys "hanging out" with his family (he has three little sisters) listening to music and surfing. His dad is a commodity trader with property interests while Mum is a trained pilot. In 2017 Price will head to the capital and commence either a commerce or Arts degree at Victoria University. He has been signed to the Wellington Rugby Academy. Who will win top 4 this year ... take our Poll by clicking here  For the first time in tournament history the World Rugby Junior Championships will feature an all Northern Hemisphere final when unbeaten England and Ireland lock horns in the decider. New Zealand will face Australia for a third time in 2016 in the playoff for fifth after they demolished Wales in a showcase of what might have been.
New Zealand: 71 (Caleb Makene 3, Shaun Stevenson 2, Jonah Lowe, Hamish Dalzell, Hapakuki Moala Liava’a, Leni Apisai, Quinten Strange, Sio Tomkinson tries; Jordie Barrett 7 con, Shaun Stevenson 1 con) Wales: 12 (Joe Gage, Harrison Keedie tries; Dan Jones 1 con) What could have been? New Zealand produced a virtuoso attacking performance to destroy Grand Slam Champions Wales. The contest was over after ten minutes following a blistering start by the Baby Blacks that saw four unanswered tries scored. Wing Jonah Lowe began the carnage after 40 seconds when he burst into a hole in the middle of the Welsh lineout on the 22. Two minutes later lock Hamish Dalzell charged down an attempted clearing kick by Welsh pivot Dan Jones and lumbered 25-meters to score. Wales employed a rush defense which left them vulnerable to accurate chip kicks. New Zealand brutally exposed this reality with their next two tries. First-five Stephen Perofeta chipped wide for lock Quinten Strange to gather on the wing. Strange transferred inside to actual winger Caleb Makene who dotted down. Second-Five Jordie Barrett then repeated the tactic and fullback Shaun Stevenson crossed. A series of powerful charges by hooker Liam Belcher sparked a brief Welsh rival. In the 17th minute prop Joe Gage managed to muscle over, but normal service was quickly resumed when hooker Leni Apisai scored - the captain was the benefactor of another attacking Barrett kick. New Zealand led 35-5 at the interval, but the lead could have been larger had they converted three additional clean breaks into points. Impressively New Zealand maintained the momentum in the second-half. The speed, intent and accuracy of their offloading was a slight to behold at times as they opened up the Welsh defense with ease. Wales intensity, when compared to Thursday, was seriously lacking. Makene, who was lucky to be selected ahead of Mason Emerson, justified his inclusion with another strong game. He finished expertly and pursed work. Stevenson maybe the best fullback at the tourney and Isaia Walker-Leawere had a storming game of the bench. Perhaps New Zealand's most impressive try was the final effort by Sio Tomkinson. After a period of defense the Otago centre ran coast to coast after New Zealand denied Wales the last say. Tomkinson has been somewhat underwhelming at this tourney and New Zealand's scrum was far from convincing again, but this performance was a showcase of genuine skill and pride. Meanwhile Australia avenged their Pool Play defeat to Scotland winning 35-19, despite trailing 14-19 early in the second-half. Second-five Sione Tuipulotu scored two tries. Ireland v Argentina - Semi Final 1 Ireland: 37 (Jacob Stockdale 2, Max Deegan, Shane Daly tries; Jonny McPhillips 4 con, 3 pen) Argentina: 7 (Juan Cruz Mallia, Domingo Miotti 1 con) Ireland have made their first IRB Junior World Championship final after a resounding victory against Argentina. The opening exchanges were tight and physical. In the seventh minute a driving maul took Ireland towards the line. When the ball came back to first-five Johnny McPhillips he hoisted a kick to the corner and Matthew Byrne's challenge deflected the ball into fullback Jacob Stockdale's hands for a try. Argentina missed a penalty minutes later and it was Ireland who struck next, somewhat against the run of play, when number eight Max Deegan read a pass to make the interception and charge 70-metres downfield to score. A third try followed through Stockdale and Ireland were 21-0 ahead and coasting. Stockdale from Ulster is a good prospect in the Rob Kearney mode. Argentina struck back on the stroke of half-time when Los Pumitas claimed lineout ball and first-five Domingo Miotti put through a little dink which captain Juan Cruz Mallia raced through to dot down. Ireland held Argentina scoreless in the second-half as their forwards monopolized possession and territory. Argentina's discipline strayed and the assured McPhillips kicked three penalties. In the 72nd minute Argentina was reduced to 14 men after replacement prop Santiago Pulella was sent off for a head butt. Centre Shane Daly made the most of Ireland's numerical advantage when he capped an impressive display with a try close to fulltime. Irish No.8 Max Deegan was named man of the match. He was a powerhouse with ball in hand. Loose head Andrew Porter was another to standout in a fine team effort. Openside Mariano Romanini was the pick of the Pumas. England v South Africa - Semi Final 2 England: 39 (Max Green, Huw Taylor, Sam Aspland-Robinson, John Williams, Max Malins, Max Wright tries; Jack Mallinder 3 con, 1 pen) South Africa: 17 (Edwill Van Der Merwe, Curwin Bosch tries; Bosch 2 con, 1 pen) England are into a fourth consecutive final after earning a third win in a row against South Africa. South Africa started brightly enough when sprightly fullback Curwin Bosch breached the defense, but England covered and soon assumed control. South Africa lacked characteristic physicality and England with a rampant pack and a backline eager to shift the ball crossed for five first-half tries. In the third minute Max Green opened England's account supporting a bust by centre Johnny Williams. In the eighth minute England were two tries up when lighting hands created space for hooker Jack Singleton on the wing only for him to be hauled down just short. The ball was quickly recycled and second-row Huw Taylor stretched his long arms out to dot down. It got worse for South Africa with their captain Jeremy Ward sin-binned for a dangerous tackle and in his absence England added a third through winger Sam Aspland-Robinson. The potent Williams added a fourth try just past the half-hour mark and, despite Will Evans seeing yellow for a dangerous tackle on the stroke of half-time, there was one more try to come as Harry Mallinder’s kick was gathered by Joe Marchant who sprinted 60-meters and linked with fullback Max Malins. South African wing Edwill Van Der Merwe struck first in the second-half when he intercepted a cross-field kick and dashed coast to coast. Four minutes later Bosch gilded through and rushed 20-meters to reduce the score to 31-17. England steadied and first-five Jack Mallinder kicked a penalty with 25 minutes to go. England applied the icing on the cake with eight minutes left when Malins slipped through and passed to replacement Max Wright on his outside for an easy run-in. Rotorua Boys, Scots College, Hamilton Boys (twice) and St Kent's have taken the trophy home over the last 5 years. What about in 2016?

The New Zealand team to face Wales on Tuesday in the World Rugby Under 20 Championship 2016 in Manchester, England, is as follows:
1. Sean Paranihi 2. Leni Apisai (C) 3. Sosefo Kautai 4. Quinten Strange 5. Hamish Dalzell 6. Luke Jacobson 7. Mitchell Jacobson 8. Hapakuki Moala Liava’a 9. Sam Nock 10. Stephen Perofeta 11. Jonah Lowe 12. Jordie Barrett 13. Patelesio Tomkinson 14. Caleb Makene 15. Shaun Stevenson Reserves: 16. Asafo Aumua 17. Sean Stodart 18. Alex Fidow 19. Isaia Walker-Leawere 20. Marino Mikaele-Tu’u 21. Jonathan Taumateine 22. TJ Va’a 23. Malo Tuitama Head Coach Scott Robertson, along with Assistant Coaches Craig Philpott and Willie Rickards, have made five changes to the starting XV which faced the same opponents in the final pool game last Wednesday. Prop Sean Paranihi and loose forwards Luke Jacobson and Hapakuki Moala Liava’a replace Ayden Johnstone, Fin Hoeata and Marino Mikaele-Tu’u respectively, while Stephen Perofeta reclaims the number 10 jersey from TJ Va’a. The back three has reverted to the line-up which took the field in the opening game against Georgia, with Jonah Lowe replacing Jordan Trainor on the left wing. Robertson said it took the squad some time to get over the fact that they had failed to reach the semifinals. “They were gutted, absolutely gutted, as a group. We didn’t get all that we’d planned for, hoped for and worked for. The players have worked as hard as any group that I’ve been involved with. There were a couple of critical moments along the way: we didn’t take opportunities and we haven’t controlled what we needed to control to get through. “We’ve scored the most tries in the comp and we’ve got the best defence in the comp, but we’re not playing for the top four. It’s been a tough couple of days, but now we’ve got a chance to make a wee statement.” That chance comes against a Wales side who have proved themselves as tough opponents throughout the competition, with every one of their games decided by just a single point margin. “Wales are a team that comes outside in on defence,” added Robertson. “They bring a lot of line speed and they disrupt you around the breakdown. Against us they never passed the ball more than twice in a row the whole game. They try and stop you playing rugby, so for us our challenge is to firstly create the opportunities and then convert them. We’re going to play: that’s our mindset, that’s our skillset.” Despite the disappointment of playing off for fifth position and not the championship itself, the head coach has seen some real quality in many of his young players, especially in the backline. “I’ve been impressed with Stephen Perofeta at 10. I think he’s done a great job with his kicking game, especially in the wet and his execution’s been really strong. A lot of our bench guys are young boys who’ve come on and made a really good impact. Obviously Jordie Barrett’s been exceptional. His courage and his skill level have been so high and he’s a great young man. “Our outside backs are a real strength. We want to play with width and get the ball out there, but we haven’t given those guys much opportunity. When we have, Shaun Stevenson has been critical with his line breaks, metres gained and men beaten which have been as good as anyone in the comp. Jonah Lowe is just a tough, oppressive, relentless outside back and Caleb Makene can play on the wing or at full back and he’s safe as.” Live Broadcast New Zealand v Wales will be broadcast live on SKY Sports 1 from 2.10am NZT. New Zealand U20 playing schedule (local times): Tuesday, 7 June (Wednesday 8 June, NZT) New Zealand 55-0 Georgia Saturday, 11 June (Sunday 12 June, NZT) New Zealand 24-33 Ireland Wednesday, 15 June (Thursday 16 June, NZT) New Zealand 18-17 Wales Monday, 20 June 3.15pm (Tuesday 21 June, 2.15am NZT) v Wales, Manchester City Academy Stadium The final round of matches will be played on 25 June.

1. Ayden Johnstone 2. Leni Apisai (C) 3. Sosefo Kautai 4. Quinten Strange 5. Hamish Dalzell 6. Fin Hoeata 7. Mitchell Jacobson 8. Marino Mikaele-Tu’u 9. Sam Nock 10. TJ Va’a 11. Jordan Trainor 12. Jordie Barrett 13. Patelesio Tomkinson 14. Caleb Makene 15. Shaun Stevenson Reserves: 16. Asafo Aumua 17. Sean Paranihi 18. Alex Fidow 19. Isaia Walker-Leawere 20. Luke Jacobson 21. Jonathan Taumateine 22. Stephen Perofeta 23. Jonah Lowe Head Coach Scott Robertson, along with Assistant Coaches Craig Philpott and Willie Rickards, have kept faith with the majority of the side which has played the opening two games of the competition, despite the 24-33 loss to Ireland last time out. Lock Hamish Dalzell is promoted from the bench and Fin Hoeata is a new face on the blindside flank, but the rest of the pack remains unchanged. In the backline, there is another new combination in the back three, with Jordan Trainor switching to the left wing, Shaun Stevenson moving back in to the 15 jersey and Caleb Makene coming into the run-on side. Robertson was understandably disappointed with the loss to a fired-up Irish team, but acknowledged that New Zealand were outplayed on the day. “It was a tough day. Ireland played well and we learnt lessons from that match. They put pressure on us at scrum time and kicked to the corners well. They played to the conditions and stayed strong for the full 80 minutes. These northern hemisphere sides play a different style of footy to us, so we must adjust to that.” The game was played in conditions that were extremely testing at times, and Robertson hopes his young players learn from the experience. “The weather suited their style of play. We’ve got a young group of guys that like to play expansive rugby. We don’t want to stop that, but need to balance attack with playing to the conditions.” This week’s opponents Wales have had a mixed tournament so far, with a narrow 25-26 loss to Ireland followed by an equally tight 10-9 victory over Georgia, but they won’t be underestimated. “Wales always step up. For a lot of these teams, when they play New Zealand, they play their best. So we are expecting Wales to come out firing. It is a knock out game. Lose and you miss out on the semi-finals. We have taken a lot of learnings from the Georgian and Irish games and are still in the hunt at this tournament.” New Zealand need to win and win well if they are to have any chance of progressing to the semi-final stage, so the message from the coaching team to the players will be a simple one. “We have a chance to make the semi-finals – it’s in our hands now. Get out there, enjoy yourself and believe in our systems – from there the scoreboard takes care of itself.” Live Broadcast New Zealand v Wales will be broadcast live on SKY Sports 1 from 4.25am NZT. New Zealand U20 playing schedule (local times): Tuesday, 7 June (Wednesday 8 June, NZT) New Zealand 55-0 Georgia Saturday, 11 June (Sunday 12 June, NZT) New Zealand 24-33 Ireland Wednesday, 15 June 5.30pm (Thursday 16 June, 4.30am NZT) v Wales, AJ Bell Stadium, Salford Semi-finals will be played on 20 June ahead of the 25 June final. |
