2011 June rugby union tests

May 2020 The 2011 mid-year rugby union tests featured only seven matches due to the upcoming 2011 Rugby World Cup. No test series took place, although the Barbarians did play two matches in the United Kingdom, against England and Wales. New Zealand and Australia hosted a respective Tier 2 side, Australia hosted Samoa, New Zealand hosted Fiji. Argentina hosted the French Barbarians, while Japan played a Top League XV side in Tokyo. This was the first time since 1973, and only the second in the past 50 years, that no team representing the Home Unions (England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, or the British and Irish Lions) toured the southern hemisphere in the mid-year window.http://www.espnscrum.com/scrum/rugby/story/142963.html Cricket and tennis stars, SH tours by the Home Unions and early tourists in France John Griffiths Ask John ESPN Scrum 4 July 2011 5 July 2011 Fixtures Week 1 29 May 2011 14:30 BST (UTC+01) ENG 32–38 Reporthttps://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/13521629 England 32-38 Barbarians 29 May 2011 14 September 2017 BBC Barbarians Trinder 3' cMonye 18' cSimpson-Daniel 26' cJohnson 72' m C.

The traditionally uncapped player of the Barbarians side was Tim Visser. (Willie Mason was also uncapped in rugby union but he was capped in rugby league, having switched codes a few weeks before the game when signing to Toulon.) Visser qualified for Scotland on residency grounds in June 2012 and now represents that country internationally.

As a result, Stephen Jones earned his 100th Wales cap in this match. The uncapped players on this Barbarians squad were Brock James and Lloyd Williams. As noted earlier, Willie Mason is uncapped in union as a recent code convert, but capped in league. 4 June 2011 16:10 ART (UTC-03) ARG 23–19 Reporthttp://uar.com.ar/noticias4.asp?notcod=20110604161858September 2017 InternetArchiveBot yes French Barbarians Fessia 23' cFiguerola 38' mContepomi 62' m Contepomi Contepomi (2) 58', 74' Boussès 12' cPlanté 29' mVosloo 66' c Beauxis (2) Doble Visera, Avellaneda Francisco Pastrana (Argentina) FB 15Martín RodríguezRW 14Lucas BorgesOC 13Marcelo BoschIC 12Horacio San MartínLW 11Gonzalo CamachoFH 10Felipe Contepomi (c)SH 9 Agustín Figuerola 12N8 8 Leonardo SenatoreOF 7 Juan Manuel LeguizamónBF 6 Genaro Fessia 11RL 5 Mariano Galarza 75LL 4 Manuel CarizzaLP 3 Maximiliano Bustos 11HK 2 Agustín CreevyTP 1 Rodrigo Roncero 22Substitutes:HK 16Eusebio Guiñazú 22PR 17Juan Pablo Orlandi 11LK 18Santiago Guzmán 75FL 19Alejandro Campos 11SH 20Alfredo Lalanne 12FH 21Nicolás SánchezWG 22Rafael CarballoCoach:ARG Santiago Phelan FB 15Silvère Tian 70RW 14Adrien Planté 57OC 13Romain CabannesIC 12Guillaume BoussèsLW 11Marc AndreuFH 10Lionel BeauxisSH 9 Julien Dupuy 61N8 8 Damien ChoulyOF 7 Pierre Rabadan (c)BF 6 Gerhard VoslooRL 5 Matthias RollandLL 4 Christophe SamsonLP 3 David AttoubHK 2 Mathieu Bonello 57TP 1 Yannick ForestierSubstitutes:HK 16Romain TerrainPR 17Eduard Coetzee 57LK 18Guillaume VilacecaFL 19Antonie ClaassenSH 20Fabien Cibray 61FH 21Rémi Talès 70CE 22Yoan Audrin 57Coaches:FRA Laurent TraversFRA Laurent Labit Week 3 11 June 2011 15:25 ART (UTC-03) ARG 18–21 Reporthttp://uar.com.ar/noticias4.asp?notcod=20110611162314September 2017 InternetArchiveBot yes French Barbarians Sánchez 17', 29', 31', 38', 44', 55' Lapeyre (2) 26' c, 49'm Teulet Teulet (3) 3', 42', 56' Estadio Centenario, Resistencia Pro Legoete (South Africa) FB 15Lucas González AmorosinoRW 14Agustin GosioOC 13Juan Ignacio Gauthier 63IC 12Gabriel AscarateLW 11Rafael CarballoFH 10Nicolás Sánchez 70SH 9 Alfredo Lalanne 40N8 8 Leonardo SenatoreOF 7 Julio Farías CabelloBF 6 Miguel de Achaval 74RL 5 Benjamin Macome 56LL 4 Manuel CarizzaLP 3 Martín Scelzo 40HK 2 Agustín Creevy (c)TP 1 Juan Figallo 66Substitutes:PR 16Eusebio Guiñazú 66PR 17Juan Pablo Orlandi 40PR 18Bruno Postiglioni LK 19Alejandro Campos 56FL 20Genaro Fessia 74SH 21Nicolas Bruzzone 40FH 22Marcelo Bosch 70CE 23Gonzalo Camacho 63Coach:ARG Santiago Phelan FB 15Romain TeuletRW 14Julien AriasOC 13Yohan Audrin 70IC 12Guillaume BoussèsLW 11Benjamin LapeyreFH 10Rémi Talès 69SH 9 Fabien Cibray 56N8 8 Antonie ClaassenOF 7 Pierre Rabadan (c) 54BF 6 Jean MonribotRL 5 Guillaume VilacecaLL 4 Matthias RollandLP 3 David Attoub 69HK 2 Romain Terrain 54TP 1 Jean-Philippe Lafond 40Substitutes:HK 16Mathieu Bonello 54PR 17Eduard Coetzee 40PR 18Yannick Forestier 69FL 19Christophe Samson FL 20Gerhard Vosloo 54SH 21Julien Dupuy 56FH 22Lionel Beauxis 69CE 23Romain Cabannes 70Coaches:FRA Laurent TraversFRA Laurent Labit Week 4 26 June 2011 15:00 JST (UTC+09) JPN 49–7 JPN Top League XV Kikutani 10' c, 33' c, 64' cWebb 18' cHolani 26' cNicholas 44' cImamura 58' c Nicholas (4)WebbWilliams (2) Nagatomo 72' c Kimishima Chichibunomiya Rugby Stadium, Tokyo Shinji Aida (Japan) Week 5 17 July 2011 14:00 AEST (UTC+10) AUS 23–32 Reporthttp://www.espnscrum.com/australia/rugby/story/144099.html Samoa shock Wallabies Graham Jenkins espnscrum.com 14 September 2017 SAM Ioane 37' cGiteau 70' c Giteau (2) Giteau (3) 40', 41', 57' Tuilagi 11' cWilliams 28' cThompson 45' m G.
