Oh, Canada!
By now, any readers of this site would have seen/ heard about the Women's monumental, semi-final victory yesterday over France, 18 - 16. One cannot offer enough superlatives for this monumental milestone for Canadian Rugby, specifically, for Canadian Women’s Rugby. Their self-belief,...

NSWT Announce Major Changes For Samoa

Sleeping Giant Opens One Eye!
A sold out, 19,000 at PPL Park in Philadelphia last Saturday witnessed one of the finest performances from the Eagles, all time, in this viewer’s recall. The U.S had The Maori on the rope in a well officiated match from Canada’s Chris Assmus. He discerned the constant infractions by The...
