    USA rugby union under threat. Geez... not sure if it's a public post.

    https://www.facebook.com/100044215351267/posts/347121770104999/

      That name "Citizens Rugby" though. I understand where it comes from, but that's no name for a new national rugby union, if that's what there going for. :man_facepalming:

                      @crucial that's a non-story if ever I've read one. "coach tells senior players to remain competitive to keep getting selected"

                          You say it's a non story but I can think of plenty of players this hasn't applied to as they got on. Most notable of recent times being Kieran Read.

                                        Anscombe definitely in the box seat

                                        T Williams
                                        G Anscombe

                                        L Williams

                                        That's probably the best backline we can put out

                                          @mikethesnow I see that James Botham isn't in the squad. Is he injured or has he been dropped?
