[QUOTE="Beerfalo, post: 700591, member: 71326"] Here's another lazy roundup of our Canadians abroad. I wish I was more detailed but I'm not a journalist, I'm lazy and I don't know how to watch RFU Championship rugby. If anything is wrong, well I don't care and I'm also sorry haha. [i][b]RFU Championship[/b][/i] [b]Plymouth Albion:[/b] Andrew Tiedemann moved from Tighthead to Loosehead and Mark Kohler got the start at Right Wing. Both guys played the full 80 minutes in a rough 55-18 loss against league leading Bristol. Brett Buekeboom was absent from the gameday roster. It does suck that the team with the most Canadians outside of Canada is sitting firmly at the bottom of the league and will almost assuredly get relegated at the end of the season. [b]Bedford Blues:[/b] James Pritchard started at Fullback(obviously) had a conversion(1/3) and two penalties while Justin Blanchet got the start at Blindside Flanker in a 23-15 win over Moseley. [b]Doncaster Knights:[/b] Jon Phelan got the start at Lock and played the full game for Doncaster Knights in a narrow loss against Rotherham ***ans. Tyler Hotson started out on the bench and stayed there. [b]London Scottish:[/b] Connor Braid continues to prove himself a utility back as he got the start at Inside Center(where he’d be playing for Canada in an ideal world) as Scottish fell to Nottingham 22-21. [b]Cornish Pirates:[/b] Aaron Carpenter and Matt Evans where both absent from the Pirates roster. [url]https://twitter.com/MattEvans_88/status/550305184396902400[/url] here's some good news at least. Evans seems recovered and training again. He also just turned 27 on Friday. Hopefully he gets back on the game sheet soon and reclaims the Fullback spot. We could really really use him during the PNC and at the RWC. No idea what's going on with Carpenter. [i][b]Pro D2:[/b][/i] Jason Marshall, Taylor Paris and Cam Pierce had the week off from ProD2 play as the league took a break. Play starts up again next week. [i][b]Top 14:[/b][/i] [b]Clermont-Auvergne:[/b] Jamie Cudmore returned to the field, starting at Lock. The studly Canadian played 75 minutes in a 24-6 win over Toulouse. [i][b]Aviva Premiership:[/b][/i] [b]London Irish:[/b] Jebb Sinclair did not make the gameday roster due to a shin injury. He had it off to recover but is expected to play against the Exeter Chiefs on the 11th. [b]London Welsh:[/b] Richard Thorpe has been absent from the roster for weeks now due to injury(or so I've read). [b]Sale Sharks:[/b] Not surprisingly Phil Mackenzie again has not played for the Sharks. Definitely can’t be the way he’s wanted his year to go especially as he should have been a big part of the RWC squad since his competition is some 7s backs and Nick “Bleh” Blevins. [i][b]Pro 12:[/b][/i] [b]Ospreys:[/b] Ardron got the full game at 8-man as Ospreys fell 22-10 to Scarlets. [b]Glasgow Warriors:[/b] DTH had the game off. I wonder if Hubert Buydens has had any offers. I thought for sure he'd be very popular after his ITM Cup season and the fact he looked fairly competent more often than not during the AIs. He's our best prop(at least I think so) and shouldn't have to settle for CDI Premier league for games. I think Hassler has had his knee surgery now and is recovering. Hopefully it's a "quick" recovery and doesn't affect him going forward. He's a huge part of our team and has a very bright future in the sport. [/QUOTE]
