Dublin University’s Trinity Rugby Club is now 7-3-1 in the Ulster Bank League in Ireland having beaten UL Bohemian 32-13 Saturday. The Trinity team, which features three players with USA representative honors in their resume, is used to having Americans on the squad.

Nebraska high school product Hanco Germishuys, who played for the HS All Americans, USA U20s, and the USA Youth Olympic 7s team in 2014, is now happily ensconced at the Gloucester Academy in the UK. His arrival has coincided with two straight victories for the Gloucester Academy in the U18 Premiership.

Toulon owner Mourad Boudjellal has confirmed that his club has signed Northampton Saints and USA star Samu Manoa to a four-year contract.

USA players overseas have been very active this December. In European Cup and domestic UK action, most of the players on contract have seen significant playing time. Samu Manoa may not have started for Northampton against Treviso in the European Champions Cup, but when he came on he scored three tries, so that was a productive day.

The USA Men's National Team traded the availability of some overseas pros for the New Zealand test match for giving those players up for part or all of the rest of November.
That doesn't mean they played. Blaine Scully and Eric Fry weren't used as Leicester won and Newcastle lost in LV= cup action. Samu Manoa likewise wasn't used as Northampton won.
