More fool them. I don’t see the UK as a welcoming place for NA teams, Even French teams seem to be begrudgingly accepted. NA sides surely have to look to have their own comp as a way to get into the game. My blog: https://rugbyl.blogspot.co.nz/ It takes wisdom to know when a discussion has run its course.

Also, fair play to whoever got up early to edit the White Plains wiki page which already has a mention of the Freedom playing there. Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day.
