Queensland extend Under 16 Origin streak to two

[caption id="attachment_6242" align="aligncenter" width="550"]Photo: Murray Wilkinson (SMP Images) Photo: Murray Wilkinson (SMP Images)[/caption]

Queensland have extended their winning streak in the annual Under 16 Origin to two, after defeating New South Wales 10-6 in Sydney on Wednesday night.

The Blues got on the score sheet first with a powerful run close to the line by South Sydney centre Campbell Graham. The kick from the sideline converted by five-eighth Luke Metcalf.

Travis Turnbull, who is contracted to Parramatta, was a stand-out for the Maroons. He fought his way over the try-line after an inside ball from centre Clayton Mack. Turnbull converted his own try and levelled the scores.

It was defensive battle for the rest of the game, with handling errors creeping in as the game wore on.

The 6-all deadlock was broken close to full time after Townsville's Nathan Barrett found space from a Max Dowd short ball to give Queensland the lead, 10-6.

That's how the score would remain, after a final Blues' raid was subdued in the final minute by some strong defence by the Maroons.

Queensland's halfback, Dray Ngatuere-Wroe, was named man of the match.

Qld 10 (Travis Turnbull, Nathan Barrett tries; Travis Turnbull 1/2 goals) def. NSW 6 (Campbell Graham try; Luke Metcalf 1/1 goal) at ANZ Stadium.

Junior Roos win in a thriller

[caption id="attachment_5868" align="aligncenter" width="550"]CD_AT4OUIAAVLXc The victorious 2015 Junior Kangaroos[/caption]

The Junior Kangaroos have reclaimed bragging rights over their Trans-Tasman rivals, holding on to win by two points in this afternoon's junior Test match.

Tepai Moeroa was named man of the match, after setting up the Kangaroos' first try and then scoring the match winner himself in the last 20 minutes.

Junior Kangaroos 22 (Valentine Holmes, Brenko Lee, Robert Jennings, Tepai Moeroa tries; Jackson Hastings 2/3 goals, Holmes 1/1 goal, Ashley Taylor 0/1 goals) def. Junior Kiwis 20 (Watson Heleta, Joseph Manu, Te Maire Martin, Tony Tumusa tries; Zach Dockar-Clay 2/4 goals) at Cbus Super Stadium.

Match Preview: Junior Kangaroos v Junior Kiwis

JUNIOR KANGAROOS v JUNIOR KIWIS
Cbus Super Stadium
Saturday May 2
Live on FOX Sports 1, 3pm AEST

The first of three Test matches on Saturday afternoon, these two sides will look to start the day off in style.

The Junior Kangaroos have named a formidable side that includes eight players who have played in the NRL, while the Junior Kiwis only have two players with NRL experience.

Although what the Kiwis lack in first grade experience, they make up in Junior Test experience, with eight players returning from last year’s Junior Test victory.

Last Time They Met: Junior Kiwis 15-14 Junior Kangaroos. Last year’s Junior Test match was a fiery encounter before a ball was even kicked. The two sides memorably came face to face during the Junior Kiwis’ haka before battling it out in wet conditions in Auckland. The Kiwis came away with a 1-point victory thanks to a Te Maire Martin field goal.

Keep An Eye On (Kangaroos): Jayden Nikorima (Broncos). Coming off the bench in last year’s NYC Grand Final, Jayden Nikorima almost single-handedly won the Broncos the game. One of the most highly rated juniors in the game, Nikorima can play anywhere from centre to five-eighth to hooker and will give the Kangaroos plenty of spark off the interchange.  

 Keep An Eye On (Kiwis): James Fisher-Harris (Panthers). A hard running forward who idolizes Ruben Wiki, James Fisher-Harris can play anywhere in the forward pack. Just 19, Fisher-Harris has played up in the NSW Cup for Penrith this season, showing how highly thought of he is at the foot of the mountains.

Key Matchup: The forward packs. Rather than target two players, I think the most intriguing matchup will be in the middle. Nelson Asofa-Solomona will lead from the front for the Kiwis. The 200cm giant is coming off his NRL debut just last weekend, while Braden Uele, a Rooster in 2014, has been in superb form for the Cowboys NYC side this season. On the other side of the field, the three forwards in the Australian pack with NRL experience, Joe Ofahengaue, Matt Lodge and Tepai Moeroa, will look to set an example for the Kangaroos. The forward battle is where the game will be won.

History: Since 2010, when the Junior Tests switched to an U20 format, these two teams have met six times, with both teams winning 3 games. After two big wins by the Kangaroos, the Kiwis reclaimed bragging rights last year, winning their first Junior Test since 2011.

Making the Step Up: Four former Junior Roos (Boyd Cordner, Josh Jackson, David Klemmer and Josh Mansour) have made the step up to Australia’s national team, while Gerard Beale, a Junior Kangaroo in 2010, has gone on to represent New Zealand.

Eight former Junior Kiwis (Tohu Harris, Siliva Havili, Peta Hiku, Shaun Johnson, Jason Taumalolo, Martin Taupau, Roger Tuivasa-Sheck and Dean Whare) have gone on to play for New Zealand, while Josh Papalii, a Junior Kiwi in 2011, has represented Australia.

Who Wins It: It’s hard to go past this Junior Kangaroos side. One of the strongest named in the past few years, I see it going the way of the green and gold. Junior Kangaroos 1-12.

Stats to Know
Most Games: 4 Carlos Tuimavave (Kiwis), 3 Dane Gagai, Josh Jackson, Cameron King (Kangaroos)
Most Tries: 4 Dane Gagai (Kangaroos)
Most Goals: 8 Shaun Johnson (Kiwis), 6 Jacob Miller (Kangaroos)
