USA guys are dangerous! They learn quicker than us! It means they have a good culture of sport! What good opponents they can be!
@MawattWillis Says:
C'est assez incroyable comment il se font confiance plus vite que nous, voyez leurs passes alors qu'ils sont débutants!

As an a.b's fan, i cant wait till the u.s catches up with the upper tier of world rugby

Union doesn’t deserve to be more popular than League in the US. Americans should be playing league.

@andrewdon1747 Says:
As soon as Ivan started talking in the first ep I thought "halfback" ha
@joshmartin8481 Says:
Orene, Ashley-Cooper & Hoiles... not a bad crew to learn from.

Defence wins the games
@drummerboy1325 Says:
More of this series and make them longer! Great work
@ckromuluss11and89 Says:
America could become a powerhouse if they played
@ericb9426 Says:
Too much talking, not enough rugby
@666kingdrummer Says:
They need to work on Defense too, that's what has been killing the USA Eagles as of late.
@folaumoeloa6652 Says:
We’re next up watch out we’re coming .
@charlvandermerwe252 Says:
great series! Keen to see them have some game time.
@foreverthursday Says:
"This is the big leagues, this is the MLR." I like MLR, but Super Rugby, United Rugby Championship, Top14, and the Premiership are light years more competitive.
@brianlee7716 Says:
I've just found this as an ex club player now living in the US and I agree, there's amazing pool of talent that has never found rugby or been exposed to it.
@jamiebrown1235 Says:
Imagine an intense rugby culture in the USA. It might change the international competition.
@jamiebrown1235 Says:
Make longer episodes! Put it on Netflix!
@Sulu-sw3zo Says:
*_Really_** enjoying this series. Well done WR. And AAC you legendary Silver Fox. The Man!*
@laikalou9078 Says:
Pretty exciting to see athletes crossing over to rugby and really adapting quick. So Orene Ai'i is there. I still remember him being a big threat to our Fiji 7s team some years back. Waiting for the next episode. Wishing the boys all the best👌🤙✌️
@brendo2005 Says:
actually really enjoyable this series ye
@TimothyMoananu Says:
This series is legit. Rugby is the number 1 sport in Samoa but I follow American Football obsessively (GO RAIDERS!!). But to see some of this US talent converted to rugby is exciting. You guys should get another legend, Nate Ebner as another surprise guest after the legend himself Todd Clever!!!
@AdS-bd8hc Says:
Nous les français, nous sommes toujours copié par les anglo-saxons c'est ouf serieux. Et apres ils font genre ce sont les inventeurs mdrr Et en plus il font tout en trop et ca devient ridicule, ils detruisent les fondamentaux des choses simple.
@samwisegamgee6532 Says:
Main advice for basketball players : Don’t dribble with a rugby ball ! Second advice : Don’t tackle above your opponent’s shoulders, which means don’t tackle above your waist!
@josemotta2517 Says:
I’m in love with this serie, well done guys
@waqarkhan25 Says:
he sounds Ausy / kiwi but he is an english man
@MTG776 Says:
Great to see AAC still contributing to Rugby, one of my all time favourite wingers... Looks like he could still strap on the boots and play a good 60 - 65 mins...
@lightningpower927 Says:
Looking forward to the real development of rugby in the USA. A lot of talent to be dug up.
@kian9982 Says:
Am really enjoying this series
@tuglanlalabalavu7263 Says:
Would be great to see Rugby grow fast in the US.. Just imagine the amount of money it would bring to Rugby !

The dwarf with the scrap metal in his nose will soon be wishing he removed it.
@getrealdave9975 Says:
Corbs has gone full on American!
@RedLorryYellowLorry_ Says:
Donnie looking like a flyhalf or fullback, Jayson can play prop but I think he's dynamic enough to play 8th man, Van Horne is definitely a center/fullback
@thomaswilliams2431 Says:
Is that what happened to orene. Man was slick back in the day
@anne-mariehartley3222 Says:
Think that it's a great idea ...they all deserve a massive 👏 we've grown up playing rugby 🏉 Union , from the non-contact in primary school, I was lucky enough to have attended a high school that already had an established girl's team, which is common now but wasn't in the 90'S ... but they're going to experience a totally different was of making sure that they are both focused on how they tackle can tackle and to get timing right..... 🏉 rugby looks like a rough sport but it's one of the best contact sports to play ,.... the guys who already play football ...Will make great wingers ....the chip and chase at speed is one of those amazing skills and looks 👌 👏 ....
@justindamons9065 Says:
Please create a full series with longer episodes. I'm really enjoying it
@lewiskeogh1242 Says:
