OUCH! :(

It's kind of what you expect though. Despite being called Australia A its really the B team. If the A team played the NZ Schoolboys team I reckon the result would be a fair bit closer.

Speaking of which; wasn't he selected in the "First 15" after the championships? There was some controversy about the lack of representation from the "minor states" considering they made the schools final. Maybe he'll still play in Friday night's match as well.
