SCHOOLBOYS FEATURE IN UNDER 20s IN ARGENTINA

The Junior Wallabies–the Under 20s–are going well in the Under 20 World Rugby Cup in Argentina.

The squad consists of 28 players and 17 of these have played for the Australian Schools and Under 18 Team or the Schools Barbarians in recent years.

They went to Argentina with high hopes after a convincing 24-0 beating of New Zealand in the Pacific Under 20 Tournament.

This success by the Under 20s builds on the very successful UK tour by the Australian Schools and Under 18 Team last December

In this tour they defeated very strong Ireland and Scotland Under 19 Teams. Scotland in particular had defeated all the Home Union Under 20s except for Wales–who won in a close match.
