Has anyone done previews of Todays under 20 Junior RWC semi-finals.
For these lads the tournament is as big as the full RWC but media coverage
is absolutely pathetic.When you consider many of these are there countries
future it is diabolical.They deserve there place in thesun as well.

The IRB site has some previews as does scrum.com.

I'm not sure about the junior AB's this year. I'm not sure if they are as good as the last couple of years and may be a bit underdone going into the semifinal. I think a side that holds onto the ball and runs at them may find holes. I think Australia will be hurting. It will be interesting to see how thay react.

My money would be on England to beat France. I'm not sure the French can lift themselves twice and the two teams are familiar with each others game.

There's naff all in the newspapers and the only stuff I've seen has been on the two sites blackcanelion mentions.

I'm going to have to leave work early to catch the England v France game - shame! Hope it's as good as the SA game.

Baby Blacks will be too much for Oz though it will be their toughest match yet (NZ by 15-20 probably). England should edge France.
