Some credit needs to go to Argentina for their upset over NZ. I think they're probably still celebrating.

Junior Boks must just stick the knife in and twist it by beating NZ in the last match.

Nice win for the U20's and thanks to the Argies helping us win the tournament.
In the Champions Cup Leinster beat Lyon and Bordeaux slayed Bath.

Apparently the Junior Boks have not won the title yet and could still lose if NZ beat us or, less likely, if Argentina record a humongous victory against Australia.

SPOTLIGHT: The Junior Boks need one more log point to clinch the Under-20 Rugby Championship title – despite initial reports to the contrary.

Bloody hell man, so they're back to the 4 try bonus point rule?
How convenient?!

Yep, in my defence the broacaster kept showing the log saying the Boks were 6 points ahead.Apparently the Junior Boks have not won the title yet and could still lose if NZ beat us or, less likely, if Argentina record a humongous victory against Australia.

There was confusion over the bonus point system.
Junior Boks' title job not done yet
The Junior Springboks have reportedly not yet clinched the U20 Rugby Championship title, despite earlier celebrations of the achievement.
Hopefully they didnt make shirts proclaiming the winners prematurely like in some other country....

Knee injuries are end of career level stuff usually. Ask our expert touch rugby guySad that he only got 35 Bok caps.Former Springboks star makes retirement call: 'Every player knows that there’s a time to call it a day'

Poor Deon Fourie must be the unluckiest player in rugby. Although the piece of **** Ulster player just went down on Fouries knee and Fourie is out of the game. And the crowd had the gall to boo because the guilty player got a card

Fantastic game of rugby, must he said. Riveting throughout. Stormers had so many red zone entries but couldn't convert enough of them into points. On at least 2 occasions they went from 2 metres short of scoring to conceding tries. Back breakers...

And Evan Roos showed why Rassie isn't a fan
The Irish are going absolutely crazy online from last night saying it was a brilliant try saving tackle and the officials got it wrong as it wasn't high.
To me it looked pretty clear. High tackle that prevented a probably try. Not a guaranteed try but probable and that is what the law says. What am I missing?

Roos throwing away that try by losing his composure yet again proved pretty costly last night.

Ya, Stormers should have won that game. Credit to Ulster for never giving up. Their 2 best players were Saffas - Trokkie and Werner Kok.

Yes, it was clearly high and the penalty try was rightly awarded.
