In New Zealand vernacular, "youse" (or "yous") is the more common variant, and like "y'all" it is looked down on as being regional or a signifier of lower class. I disagree, English really needs a second-person plural pronoun, and I spent some time deliberately using it in speaking and writing hoping it would catch on. There are dozens of us! Dozens!
