Youtube ones have - it just wasn't the expected channel.
C4 is for the England SIs, not U20s

iPlayer and BBC website were the much-touted ones, than have singularly failed to materialise

Wales under the cosh by France, 10 minutes to go, but I don't see a comeback.

Winner of our game against Ireland is likely to be the winner of the tournament.

I see conceding fuckwitted, soft penalties starts at age grade.

I see it doesn’t matter being ahead of the kicker. That’s only three in a row where the winger is ahead. Now can England actually make touch from a penalty!

That’s better. I’m sure it’s because of (enter tired trope about size) we’re actually really good at mauling. Body positions are excellent.

But the huge, massive, giant, heavy, big, enormous, oversized, gigantic, hefty, powerful, muscular pack of the English is clearly all it is.

Outstanding at the breakdown from Richards! Good innovation from Ireland making serious yards. But a good scramble and then contest.

Goes to show you can tackle low and still get dominance.

On another note, Kendell is an excellent player. Absolute stand out at schools.

He’s finally noticed 11 green is offside :)

Poor execution from England after some excellent build up.

Reminder: Sam Riley played second fiddle to Barbeary in the same school year. That’s two damn good hookers coming through.

Not quite sure how that’s T&Tbut hey ho. The touch judge has better angle than me by far.

Poor end to the half, credit Ireland, but then proper solid defence. Whole front row is having a stormer. Brantingham especially. Wait until you see him and Fin Baxter in the same front row. At U18s they were SO good!

We should have scored before h/t. Forwards getting on top. Our carrying is first class and the scrum and maul are looking strong. Neither set of backs having much time and space to play in.

Brantingham! Talk about size all you like but that out the back door pass is bloody lovely. Excellent scramble and line defence from Ireland, but we managed to get over.

Considering his ability Atkinson has had a poor game.
