HARRIMAN, UT - There are warriors. There are Utah Warriors. Then there are Utah Warriors' Warriors. Figuratively and literally, that is what Lance Williams is. One of the best back row players in Major League Rugby has quite the story. From growing up in Hawaii and Samoa, being the captain for the University of Hawaii football team and being on the All-MLR Team twice, he's been curiously uncapped by USA Rugby. Will he choose to represent Samoa? We also introduce a new (lightning-fast) MLR Headlines "Coffee Break" with John Fitzpatrick. It's 30 seconds of headlines and awful one-liners.

Adam Freier, the general manager of the LA Giltinis, joins Tailgater Sports to talk about this Sunday's playoff game against the Utah Warriors and the Giltinis' first year in Major League Rugby and Los Angeles.

Jarom Jordan talks with former Cougar All-American rugby player Kimball Kjar about life after BYU including being the CEO of the Utah Warriors of Major League Rugby.

After a rousing win over Los Angeles in Week 16, the Golden Road Warriors fell against Seattle in Week 17 of Season 4. LA, Utah, and Atlanta secure their spots in the Eastern and Western Conference Finals. New York gives themselves a leg up in the race for the final spot following their rousing victory over Houston. Johan Momsen has been a key fixture since joining Rugby ATL for their expansion season in the Pandemic shortened 2020. In 2021 he picked up where he left off with his massive work rate, in Week 17 of MLR Season 4 he brought every tool he had out onto the pitch in his performance against the Utah Warriors to help secure Rugby ATL a bonus point victory. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Week 14 of Major League Rugby saw the Giltinis face major adversity with eleven roster changes following several injuries before kickoff but they pulled out the victory against SD. The Utah Warriors held onto their place in the standings with their victory against New York while opening the door just slightly for NOLA or New England to have a chance at taking the second spot in the East. Bill Meakes has been all over the world playing Rugby, making his journey in a bit of unorthodox way, he continued that when he signed for the Giltinis. His performance on Saturday against San Diego was incredibly impressive. He's been a standout center for Darren Coleman this season, but just as his career has been unorthodox his performance on Saturday led to a Player of the Week selection finding out hours before the match that he'd play Openside Flanker for the first time in his life.

Week 9 of Major League Rugby action ends as San Diego Legion and Old Glory DC find new leases on life in their respective wins at the mid-way point. Major League Rugby sees the first Rugby match played in SoFi Stadium in a grudge match between the Los Angeles Giltinis and the Utah Warriors, with the Giltinis proving victorious. Dan and Pete break down week 9's action and look forward to week 10. Angus Cottrell of the Los Angeles Giltinis joins Dan Power to discuss his season in Los Angeles after his Player of the Week performance. Cottrell a veteran of the Western Force and Melbourne Rebels discusses that he was looking to play overseas after falling out of the Wallabies selection picture and was keen to play in the great city of Los Angeles and explore the United States. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Dan and Pete break down Week 8's action with New York proving victorious over the Giltinis in a hard effort. The East showed how strong it could be over the west in week 8 with only the Utah Warriors in the inter conference play coming away unscathed. Aston Fortuin joins Dan Power to discuss his time as a young player in South Africa. He discusses the size of the Varsity Cup competition which he won while playing for the University of Pretoria. He then discusses his love of travel which he got to fulfill first playing for the EP Kings in the Pro 14 and now with the Utah Warriors. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
