They've been embracing these opportunities for 30 years. The score line hasn't improved, the Eagles' ranking hasn't improved. These events do resupply the bank accounts of the bankrupt USRFU. And now the USRFU has floated the idea of hosting the RWC!?!? Here's an idea, how about qualifying for the RWC first. And then, how about making it out of your pool. And then build 25 stadiums and developmental fields in 25 cities w/national coverage like the MLS. Then we can talk all about the rugby potential of the Eagles. Until then, it's all nice bar/internet chat.

Outstanding video. As a New Zealander I could feel an American in me rising up. Well done USA. As you have said, the giant has been woken up, and will be a force to be reckoned with in the near future. Cheers and all the best from NZ. Remember it took Ireland almost 100 years to defeat an All Black team. However, defeating NZ outside of NZ is not like defeating them at home. Not many nations have managed to do this consistently beside the big nations like England, South Africa and Australia. In 2017, the All Blacks defeated South Africa in NZ 57-0 and have regularly put 50 on South Africa in South Africa as well as Australia. US scoring two tries against an impressive NZ side is a massive win for rugby USA. Be good to see American's playing in the local NZ competition so they can capture the NZ moment. God bless America!

It's important to note that this USA team was far from their strongest. With the game falling outside of the international release window none of their Europe based players were available. The States have an entire front row at Montpellier, Toulon and Toulouse, and Newcastle's Greg Peterson is their usual lock. scrum half Ruben de Haas is the backup at Saracens and Sale's AJ McGinty is one of the best fly halves in Europe. Also, due to players needing to be vaccinated to play in DC, a number of regular domestic US starters were pulled from this game. A number of players who took on NZ are nowhere near first choice for the Eagles. Not that they would have won, but I'm sure the full strength US line up wouldn't have conceded 100.

Rugby is a game that allows every participant to learn coordination, strength, intelligence, comradeship, patience, manners and anger management 😀 Your team is your family. Your team is your back up. Your team is your extended arm, running buddy, power lifters, motivators, baby sitters, excuse to being late home and always there no matter what. When you look at the All Blacks, they are all this and more. Every child, woman and man that plays rugby in New Zealand, plays for the love of the game and for most, for the black jersey. It is the greatest gift to any sportsman that plays the game. Go hard USA. We are watching you closely.

Would be nice to see them assemble a team a few more years down the line to compete in Super Rugby or the URC and get annual test match exposure with Tier 1 and 2 teams. If they trek along the same pathway as Japan, they could be competitive with Tier 1 nations by the end of the decade (:

USA coach should know that this is not 7s where commiting to a ruck will give more space, this is 15s. You have to commit to a ruck at defense especially to delay the flow of the ball. Contest every open ruck to delay cause if the scrum half is given fast ball that's where the game is fast paced. Especially with the All Blacks you have to commit to the ruck even if you're penalized. Just delay their momentum.

@trevorerasmus1605 2 жыл бұрын

@@leilyndrawiri1858 I hear what you are saying and can see why you would think that, but here's the thing about rugby, we don't have an offensive team and a defensive team to bring on for a particular play to suite the match situation. We have to produce athletes that are capable of many disciplines, from scrums and line outs, to rucking, mauling and defence. Hitting gaps and kicking to passing and covering a team mate. These skills start when we start playing at 7 years old and by the time we end up with a 20 year old player in South Africa from a good rugby playing school, or from most schools with a rugby program these days, you have a player with a 13 year career and that's before they turn Pro. So when you pick grown men for a singular ability to run and catch a ball against a player we have produced then your player will always lose because if we know he's good at that one thing, he might show that skill off 1 time till we realize he's good at that and after that we'll shut him down so he won't get to show or use that skill again. Whereas our players are very physical, a trait that boys are brought up in because of the uncompromising way we are taught to play as kids, often practising against older and stronger opposition at young ages and that's where the toughness is bred into us along with a culture that is quite tough and uncompromising. The USA national team should not be the focus, grassroots development of a culture should be the focus because in one generation you will have created a standard that can be built upon for generations if they want to be smart about it.

19:20 Dam at this point these guys have no idea what they are up against, the All Blacks are the greatest rugby team of all time and there is a reason for that.

Bit of a disservice to describe Dan Lyle as a rugby analyst, he put a better shift in for bath than faletau does...

To this day it still irks me that commentators didnt mention that Jerry Collins was also honoured before The Haka.

liek to see NZ clubs contract more US players to help develop their game back home.

Wouldn't be nice if the former players from the top 5 tier countries would present the USA team with their jerseys..

Guys growing up watch my team play in South Africa or Playing in UK the All Black is a different era its where the American Eagles are today dont be too hard on yourselves Get all the games of super rugby over the last 6 years Watch all the games of the Crusaders games The facts of this team 1996 - 2022 26 years super rugby Countries & teams Argentina 1 NZ 5 Australia 5 Japan 1 South Africa 4 Paciic Islands 2 South Africa Teams playing in Europe now Japan & Argentina no longer playing in the competition Most Success team in Super Rugby is Crusaders 1st 13 titles 2nd 3 in 3rd 1 4th 4 out of contention 5 times Next best teams Bulls South Africa 3 NZ Blues 3 NZ Chiefs 2 NZ Hurricanes 1 Highlanders 1 Waratahs 1 Reds 1 Brumbles 1 The Crusaders players focus on the game not the opposition players or team there are playing Watch this year final Blues vs Crusaders 1st time in 19 yrs the blues played in the final The key to the Crusaders team do your PR schools clubs not winner that comes when they play there game. Try & get players from the top teams to go to the US to help your game with both the clubs & RUSA. Enclosing passion for the game small margin gains room for improvements and focus on the basis of your game pass on the skills for future generations.

And Ireland went on to beat the All Blacks 5 times in 7 games. They also went to New Zealand and won the series against them. Who would have thought that would happen?
