Senior international full-back Hugo Keenan has paid tribute to the Ireland U20s for the way they performed under incredibly difficult circumstances against Fiji at the World Championship in South Africa on Tuesday.

In addition to the sad news that recently graduated St Michael’s College students Andrew O’Donnell and Max Wall had died in separate incidents on the Greek island of Ios last weekend, it was confirmed on Monday that Munster elite performance officer Greig Oliver had also passed away following a paragliding accident in Cape Town.
