GRR: National Teams
Fiji defeated the USA 20-14 in Vannes, France in a game where the USA played more of the rugby, had multiple chances to score, and saw the winning try disappear before their eyes.
The USA Men’s National Team is out of goal kickers, and will turn to a rookie to get points for them.
The USA Men's National Team finishes up its November test matches with a match against Fiji Friday afternoon at Stade de la Rabine.
Ealing Trailfinders center Ronnie McLean will earn his first international cap as he starts at fullback.
USA Men’s 15s Head Coach Mike Tolkin says he is still leading a mostly amateur team to internationals this November.
While the team Tolkin was able to field against the All Blacks featured nine pros, the team that played Romania and Tonga had far fewer (this was due to a tradeoff USA Rugby made with Aviva Premiership clubs to make the top pros available for the New Zealand game).
