where is this pitch at?

[jasontemp]

I think it was in Long Beach at some grade school or something. This was almost a year ago and 3000 miles away.

Common mate, fair go. These blokes are out there giving it a go in a nation that largely has no idea what Rugby is. It's easy for blokes in New Zealand, England, South Africa or us blokes over here in Australia cos we grow up with the game; they don't have that luxury. They're out there for the love of the game and I reckon that's all that counts...ps Marty Wiggins is a sexy man beast...

@jasontemp at a grade school? r u fucking kidding me. pro rugby players need to play in a pro football or soccer field

@lhunt1989 Is he related to the great Tevita Bloomfield?

[lhunt1989]

nice hit from Henry Bloomfield at 4:06...you can hear sound from the side lines..nice!

would have to disagree, proper camera and angles would show the real level. u15 wouldn't make it through one ruck or scrum down.

[dzrtrder203]

I played one of britains all area u15 teams and 3 or 4 of there players were on the national team, we beat them 21-19...
