England U20's make 3 changes to team as centre Redpath hit with biting ban

England U20s head coach Steve Bates has made three changes to his side to face Wales in their fifth-place playoff on Saturday.

One of those was enforced with Luke James replacing the suspended Cameron Redpath at inside centre, after he was hit with a ban for biting.

The Sale Sharks centre was sanctioned after he admitted biting Ireland hooker Dylan Tierney-Martin during their fifth-place semi-final playoff at the World Rugby Under 20 Championship on Tuesday, which England won 30-23 thanks to a late try.

The other two changes to the England side sees James Kenny named at loosehead prop while Tom Willis comes in at number eight.

Redpath, son of former Scotland scrum half Bryan, is the second English player to pick up a length suspension during the tournament after Alfie Barbeary was given a five week ban for a dangerous tackle on Irish flanker John Hodnett, which earned the hooker a straight red card during a pool stage match earlier in the competition, a match which Ireland went on to win 43-26.

Redpath appeared before a committee comprised of former Munster lock John Langford, ex-Scotland international Sarah Smith and Canada’s Alan Hudson which heard evidence from hooker Tierney-Martin and the Ireland doctor.

Redpath was cited under Law 9.12 and the player accepted the offence, with the committee ruling it was a low-end offence.

The entry-point suspension is 12 weeks, however it was halved because of his “previously clean record, early acceptance of his conduct, apology, youth and inexperience.”

Mark Tele'a's departure sends unsettling message to NZRU over wantaway All Blacks

The problem with wingers is that father time catches up sooner than it does to other positions because speed is their #1 asset. There’s no way I was as fast at 28, as I was at 23, nor is anyone else.


By the time the next WC is finished, Ta’lea will be 30 or 31. It’s a big risk to think he’ll be as quick as he is now and commanding the same money, those are just the unavoidable facts of life. I don’t think exposure to top rugby or lack thereof has much to do with it, wing is a pretty low attrition position. Yes, some wingers can carve out longer international careers, but they usually move in a position or two, where speed is not so critical.

How 'misunderstood' Rassie Erasmus is rolling back the clock

I don’t think you understand how it works, and the ad hominem attack is tiresome although not suprizing from you.

Rugby Laws are decided by the World Rugby Board. According to Owen Doyle (who would know) the board are divided on this issue. The next meeting is May and this Law will be on the agenda.

Now its being pointed out to you that in all Law, the intention of the Law IS THE LAW.

You may disagree (without any substantiation) that 5:3 was NOT the intention. But you are not doing that. You are pretending that the intention is not the law, and you are also pretending that the interpretation of this law is not in dispute when at best, you don’t know if it is or isnt.

Do you accept that the interpretation of the law is key to how the law aapplies?

If not we really have nothing further to discuss.

Northampton get ideal pre-Leinster runout by tuning up Bristol

Poorest team picked all year in terms of being disjointed. I did think Scarlets had a decent chance when I saw the Leinster team. Williams was excellent at 9 leveraging the lead. I don’t like singling out the ref but two mauls brought down inside the 5 metre line surely required a yellow. Persistant penalties near the Scarlets line illicited two warnings in a row and no yellows. And a couple of very very late hits on Byrne got ‘do that again and you’re booked’. I heard that was demoted after the Sharks Munster match earlier in the season. He is not the required standard. URC should use Holly D as the main Scottish ref.

All that said Leinster still had it in them to win. The disjointed team and unforced errors was the last nail. Byrne’s intercept pass was typical of Leinster supplying the mistakes that Scarlets needed.

I hope the errors don’t spread to the Knockouts team.

Hiring this genius hacker Anton Romanova ANTONFASTHACK100@ GMA1L.C0M is the best decision I made in a long time. Someone stole some crazy pictures of mine and was blackmailing me, threatening to post me on Facebook and tagging my family. I paid the first time but they didn’t stop. So I went online and found the contact of Mr Anton from a post where a lady was appreciating him for helping her erase her criminal records and improving her credit score. To be honest, I thought it was too good to be true but I was wrong. The man is 100% perfect at what he does. If you need help, take my advice and reach out to him via email:

The Crusaders are going SO well. I would suggest you are “one dimensional “ in your thinking. I get you are upset the Crusaders are “back”. The Highlanders beat us last year. When we were ravaged by injury.I am not “settling down “. PS Will Jordan is the best fullback in the world. Codie Taylor the best hooker, Ioane Moananu, an all Black hooker in waiting.

How 'misunderstood' Rassie Erasmus is rolling back the clock

SA took every chance and needed to. If the TMO spots Arendse pushing Fickou in the back for his try. If the ref adjudicates the ball is not out when Etzebeth tacles Dupont. SA got every call, every bounce and needed it. Scoring freely? Nah, not so much.

Leinster player ratings vs Scarlets | 2024/25 URC

Nonsense. Leinster are already de facto guaranteed first place in league standings with two matches left!

They beat Sharks full of Springboks in Durban with their C team. Their B team was beaten by a late penalty kick by Bulls (more Springboks laden) in Pretoria.

You can’t blame Cullen for giving anyone who missed out a run against Scarlets?

Not sure what the corelation is with the RWC.

SA’s squad was cooked after the miracle QF match against France. England were far superior and were leading by 9 with 10 minutes to go until a couple of absolutely ridiculous penalties allowed SA the most luckiest of wins. No depth.

In the final NZ with 14 were a match for SAs 15. No depth, needing badly that red card to have any chance. The secret sauce for SAs win in 2023 was luck.

How 'misunderstood' Rassie Erasmus is rolling back the clock

Doyle says the Chairman the Board of World Rugby will find the board divided on the issue in the May meeting. Doyle correctly identifies the recent public statement by World Rugby management that there is no medical evidence to support that 7-1 splits etc are dangerous and therefore no reason to outlaw it as not in their remit. It is also a non sequiter as there may be other reasons to outlaw it principally the fact that 5-3 splits were the intention of the law.

It is a matter for the board of World Rugby to come to a position on this and lets hope integrity prevails, every body accepts that the integrity of all Rugby Laws demands that the intention of these laws is not abused. Those wishing for 7-1 splits etc should go about it in the correct manner and seek law change to allow it. To answer Ed’s (ridiculous question) again, roughly half the World Rugby board dispute these splits under the law and this will arise at the May WR board meeting.

No instead of disingeniously pulling hurdles out of yer respective backsides can you acknowledge that ‘Intention?’ is a relevant and faor question in this matter instead of pretending it isn’t just because that might contradict your article~?

How 'misunderstood' Rassie Erasmus is rolling back the clock

No need for the xenophobic comment. I pointed out Rassie’s master plan was not responsible for the 2023 RWC win. They lost against Ireland, secured two pretty dodgy wins against France and England and needed a red card in ther final against a much stronger team on the day. That’s not master planning. Like some Saffers you take criticism right on the ego. You do understand Saffers attacking people for nationality, race etc is not acceptable?

Former All Black Craig Newby lands head coach role in England

Life can unravel in an instant. For me, that moment came when deceitful cryptocurrency brokers vanished with £40,000 of my savings, a devastating blow that left me paralyzed by shame and despair. The aftermath was a fog of sleepless nights, self-doubt, and a crushing sense of betrayal. I questioned every choice, wondering how I’d fallen for such a scheme. Hope felt like a luxury I no longer deserved. Then, Tech Cyber Force Recovery emerged like a compass in a storm. Skeptical yet desperate, I reached out, half-expecting another dead end. What I found, however, was a team that radiated both expertise and empathy. From our first conversation, they treated my crisis not as a case file, but as a human tragedy. Their professionalism was matched only by their compassion, a rare combination in the often impersonal world of finance.

What happened next defied logic. Within 72 hours of sharing my story, they traced the labyrinth of blockchain transactions, outmaneuvering the scammers with surgical precision. When their email arrived, “Funds recovered, secure and intact,” I wept. It wasn’t just the money; it was the validation that justice could prevail. Tech Cyber Force Recovery didn’t just restore my finances, they resurrected my dignity. But their impact ran deeper. They demystified the recovery process, educating me without judgment. Their transparency became a lifeline, transforming my fear into understanding. Where I saw chaos, they saw patterns; where I felt powerless, they instilled agency. Today, I’m rebuilding not just my savings, but my trust in humanity. Tech Cyber Force Recovery taught me that vulnerability isn’t weakness, and that seeking help is an act of courage. To those still trapped in the aftermath of fraud: miracles exist. They wear no capes, but they wield algorithms and integrity like superheroes. To the extraordinary Tech Cyber Force Recovery team, your work is more than technical prowess. It’s alchemy, turning despair into resilience. You gave me more than my funds; you gave me my future. May your light guide countless others through their darkest nights. From the depths of my heart: Thank you.
