Friday Top Performers - U20 Six Nations

Wales vs England:
Cai Evans wins our Man of the Match for a solid outing and 100% kicking record off his 2 challenging kicks. Tom Willis was a force at the breakdown and made all 10 of his tackles. Josh Hodge ran 108m on the day and was a continual threat at the back for England
Italy vs Ireland
Harry Byrne was not only kicking well but was on the ball dictating play and came up with a 5 pointer of his own. Craig Casey also had a great game combining well with Byrne and had a few brilliant individual passages of play. David Hawkshaw was also an influential player and lead by example.
France vs Scotland
Ross Thompson had a brilliant game in vein and almost single-handedly gave Scotland 3 tries in 10 minutes. He was a key member of Scotland's performance against tough French side outcome. Erwan Dirdi was heavily involved for France and was given a standing ovation when he left the field in 55th minute, probably because he would have been too exhausted to keep that tempo and momentum of play.
The long line of superb French scrumhalves continues to grow with Baptiste Germaine putting in a tidy shift.
