WASHINGTON, DC - It was a whirlwind week of rugby that included reassuring news on the Major League Rugby front, the NCR Playoffs sending host Matt McCarthy to Oklahoma, and the USA Men's Eagles playing in Romania. MLR Weeky touches all the bases, so you don't have to. Old Glory, DC Head Coach Simon Cross:  Cross answers a wide range of questions with real answers, not in the Coach-Speak, non-answer jargon that American sports fans get fed every day by the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL. Cross is refreshingly transparent.

CARDIFF, WALES - What does Cardiff Rugby have to do with a MLR Weekly show? Plenty. Why? Because a band of savvy, passionate mix of Hollywood producers, businessmen and rugby professionals may have just what the sport needs: outside the box thinking with some Hollywood flare. In this case, the aforementioned want to purchase Cardiff Rugby, a storied club since 1876, rescue them from bankruptcy, see them flourish... AND script a TV series about the whole thing. One of the principals, Rhino Rugby CEO Reg Clark, speaks candidly and in-depth with host Matt McCarthy about this wild and intriguing venture.
