U20s

Re: U20s
I am impressed with McPhillips everytime I see him play. He has a good boot on him and a great step too with an eye for a gap. OK a 14 man Georgia u20 is not like the dizzying heights of the AIL but still...
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?
Re: U20s
Some very good ball handling along the re-jugged ireland backline, Terry Kennedy and Hugo Keenan looked sharp with ball in hand. Jonny McPhillips very composed with ball in hand and when kicking, has been key to both of the last two wins.
And Andrew Porter gave a great cameo off the bench, steadied a rocking Ireland scrum, looks like he might go the the gym occasionally. The back-up hooker O'Brien nearly as active around the park as McBurney was on Saturday.
Lots of reason to feel positive for the future, even if it would be nice if a few more of them were Ulstermen.

That McBurney is doin' rightly forbye
That Stockdale will never make a player ....................according to some here.
That Stockdale is wild slow ........................according to some here.
I recall watching McPhillips in the 6Ns and he kicked the ball like it was a pun'o'mince
All going swimmingly, 20 points up after an hour but hey, Schmidtferbrains & his new bench showed how to lose a winning lead on Saturday.
Some really good young lads in this squad.
I know it's a different matter stepping up to adult level but thon young beast Porter looks like he will be some boy in a couple or three years. Deegan too could be a good'un.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.
