The Eagles failed to qualify for the 2023 Rugby World Cup, and their head coach, Scott Lawrence, has stepped up to work on building the team anew. Luckily, Lawrence is the most qualified to lead the team as he possesses considerable knowledge about the game at different levels in the USA.
“The big thing is the law variations and changes. It’s kind of like shifting a car; it redlines at first, so they go all the way to the extreme, and then they realize, ‘Okay, wait a minute, there’s a middle ground here,’ and you’re seeing that happening in test rugby right now,” said Lawrence. “They’re trying to improve the speed of the game through the law variation, so they adjust. For example, the maul. It was originally started with one call of ‘use it.
“From our perspective, we’ve been watching the games closely regarding how the referees interpret because that’s then being fed back through the referee community, and we’re adjusting more.
