Global Results - 21 June 2009
There were some big results this weekend – in the Wellington wet, in warm Durban and in slippery Tokyo where the Junior World Champions were decided.
In Bucharest Scotland A won the Nations Cup. It’s almost a sad tournament as the second teams of Six Nations countries are able to beat the first teams of Six Nations B countries. The three A teams occupied the first three places while the first choice teams of Romania, Russia and Uruguay were below them.
In Denver, Ireland A won the Churchill Cup.
