Just watched the highlights on YouTube - looks like it was a great game, does anyone know if the full match will appear anywhere?
I think it should be on iplayer
Thanks I will take a look.

What a great performance. I switched on as soon as Tigers’ had lost.
The defence at the end was superb as was the whole England team.

Attitude wonderful, even when getting hammered in the first half they kept fighting to stay in the game.
Gradually fought their way into the game and moved away in the second half.

Says a lot about that Tigers match that I switched over to the 20s. Incredible effort from England. They'll have been gutted to let last week slip, but to pull that off against such a strong French side is really special.

Harry Beddall also captaining Wales to a very credible win over Italy. Osain Thomas has been a standout for Wales this tournament, too.

The second-row Junior Kpoku looks out-standing, currently playing for Racing, let's hope an English club entices him to play in England.

There is just something about this tournament, the Wales come back against the Italians etc just another example - I just love it. Ireland must be gutted after salvaging last weeks game and putting 39 unanswered point. against the Junior Jocks. The mental strength of England to put in a performance like that was brilliant. O'Connor must be delighted. Several players put their hands up for Senior selection and it will be great to see them come through.

Was nervous with no U18's but Mellowes skipping it entirely is a big plus.


Myall looks a great prospect I can see him ending up at 13

I think Seb Kelly (currently with Sale) in the U18's is Dan's brother (certainly Dan's Instagram is sharing the team announcement and tagging him in it) may be able to draw him to Tigers
