Whatever you do, don't argue. We might never hear from you again.

It would not take long for Farrell snr to knock the talent out of the bright young things.

The biggest teams win these tournaments. I wouldn't get too over excited about the future. It's a good experience and a great achievement but when they enter the mens game the odds change dramatically.

Look at the size of the baby books pack and you'll see that isn't true. The Welsh won through technique and skill. The English were better in all departments and were it not for the quality of Arti Suvea the new Zealand 7 and skipper the winning margin would have been greater.
Should be a great match on Sunday :smt023

Welsh skill did win through in the end against the boks. Their 15 is very dangerous, another Halfpenny in the making I think!
I thought the baby blacks were the smallest I have seen in a while, apart from one big bearded lad who was huge. England totally outmuscled them!
Should be a great final!

Scott spurling spent the last year at Bedford and kept out a hooker who signed for the premiership in the final.

Tom Price went over for a try on the stroke of halftime but ref checked back and there was 'foul play' by Tom's second row partner and the try was denied.
