What Happened to Troy Hall?Troy Hall cannot play for the USA Men's National Team for six months because he did not notify the US Anti-Doping Agency that he was making a comeback to international rugby early enough. Hall was named in the game-day squad for Saturday's test match against New Zealand, but on Saturday morning he was scratched, and Tim Stanfill was named in his place.
