CANADA SELECTS FOR SUMMER TEST SERIES

Posted 2012-May-17 14:28

       MIA - C. O'TOOLE

A selection of experienced and up and comers has been announced by Rugby Canada coach, Kieran Crowley, for the summer Test Series.  CW is very happy for a number of lads who are currently or have recently worn the Tricolors.  Pundits will question some absences in the selected party of twenty seven notably Hirayama and Marshall. Reasons of course, are only known by the selectors.  One can understand Cudmore's absence and perhaps there are a few rank "outsiders" that were considered.  The opposition of USA and Italy and appearing in Vancouver, Georgia, will be a good benchmark for this squad.  CW takes this opportunity to wish ALL PLAYERS and COACHING STAFF well for these games.  GO, CANADA, GO!
