NZ teams/clubs have development sides all under 19-21 normally playing curtain raiser to some Super Rugby games, Some have played...

Shame we don't have development teams like NZ so that these kids can develop & have more game time... you cant play professional rugby using kids.. 2nd half was a prime example.
