Maybe U20 in his case means U20 stone for once.
Did anyone see the game?

Dont think anyone at Ulster watched it. Nothing on Ulster or Leinster Twitter.

Ulster were winning 20-7 when I left with 5 minutes to go, Rodney played the 2nd half at LH and scored Ulster's 2nd try from a metre out, Aaron Sexton scored the 1st try, that boy has speed to burn and a step of the right foot that will leave many an opposition sitting on their backside, Lowry quiet 1st half but much better 2nd half with a few line breaks, thought the No.8 who I assume is Jonah Mau'u was the best of the backrowers with some strong carries, Ulster's no.4 Jack Regan also had a couple of turnovers and carried well...Curtis ok, done twice for feeding the scrum and I don't mean Rodders was hungry....

It also appeared to me that Ulster's defence was very narrow, Leinster had acres of space outside and but for some shocking final passes could have had 2 or 3 more tries, scrum went well and for the 1st time that I can remember the Ulster lads looked generally bigger than their counterparts

That's probably because a fair few of them are from Leinster lol

Ulster A will begin their Celtic Cup campaign on Friday 7th September at home to Leinster, once again at Malone RFC with a 5pm kick-off.
Potential to go to both games on Friday night.

Well, that was quick, starts the season in sub-academy, gets a couple of decent performances, including the league game and promoted straight away.
Delighted, shows the rest of the nippers that if you take your chances that the rewards are there. Would it have happened under the rain of terror of Kissthefuckwit? You know it wouldn`t, he didn`t know most of the lads in the academy by name.
Buzzin`, good luck to the lad.

Yeah, fair fecks to the lad. We are not well stocked in many positions so there will be opportunities for the youngsters.
