Ireland U20s ahead of their game against Georgia in Narbonne.

We continue to benchmark the season just gone with a look at the performance of Ireland U20’s in the Six Nations and the 2018 World Rugby Championship. Results wise it wasn’t the best of seasons for Ireland U20’s. Their two wins in the Six Nations (against Italy and Scotland) were followed by a single win (against…

Ireland U20, Italy U20 and England U20 were the big winners this weekend, all responding to defeats in the last round to pull out a win this time round.

Under 20: Teams up for Ireland v Scotland.

Mark Keane returns to the U20 squad for the first time this season.

After being dumped at the altar by the wonderful Nigel Carolan about this time last year it has taken us a while to recover. Fair enough, we had the equally attack minded Kieran Campbell involved for our summer fling in…

Queens Angus Curtis to start for Ireland U20.

The Ireland U20’s side for their Six Nations match against Italy at Donnybrook on Friday evening was announced yesterday.
