U-19s Exiles mean business

The Under-19 Exiles will play Leinster on Sunday, August 19 at the Oratory School, Woodcote, in Reading (kick-off 2pm).

The Exiles are showing healthy signs of regeneration as Ireland Club U-18 internationals flanker Sean Dougall, centre Charlie Ingall, hooker Joe MacManus, number 8 Seamus McKimm and out-half Elliott O'Brien are expected to make an impact.

There have also been significant new additions in England U-18 loose head prop George Porter (St Peter's Gloucester), Wales U-18 squad scrum-half Tom James (Llandovery College) and centre Sean Hickey (Judd School), who was one of the outstanding players at the National Schools Sevens last season.
