NSWRL Academy in Sth Africa

[JasonE]

Has anyone heard how the tour is going ? it's an u/16 young achievers tour, would be interesting to see the results

also, for anyone interested there is an u/16 team from Illawarra currently in the UK which lost to Wigan St Pats u/16 last night in what was described as a brutal match.

What happened with the Illawarra juniours at Wigan?

 

[JasonE]

I was told by a guy who played in the game that not only was it the quickest game ever experienced by him at that age level but it was full of big hits, roughhouse tactics and aggression which got completely out of hand, I think at least 4 players were carried off injured although none were badly hurt thankfully.

Gee buy the looks of things the young Lancastrians are certainley steeping it up these days.

How did West Illawarra go in the local comp this year?
