Unchanged U20s in Grand Slam decider

COACH Eric Elwood has named an unchanged Ireland U20 team for tomorrow’s Grand Slam decider against Italy.

The side clinched the Triple Crown last weekend with a 31-8 victory over Scotland, and are warm favourites to complete a clean sweep against their hosts in the Santa Colomba Stadium, in Benevento (near Naples).

Said Elwood: “We all know what a great opportunity this is, but rather than focus on the prize at the end, we are looking for the players to focus on the performance.”
