Notes on the Eagles

We at Goff Rugby Report World Headquarters have a few observations about the USA Men’s National Team as they head into the final stretch of the pre-World Cup matches.

Any victory over Canada is a good one for the Eagles, but now they have notched three in a row, something they’ve never done before. The USA also set records for points scored and margin of victory over Canada. 

However, it’s worth noting that those two records relied on the fact that the Canadians were pushing the game late, and gave up a relatively soft interception try by Cam Dolan. Good play by the former Life University All American, but also a reflection of Canada’s desperation.

And, really, that’s where we are with the USA team - some really good stuff, and a few things there to stop us from getting carried away.
