Ryan Matyas

Eagle #486 Player for SD Legion. Married to the love of my life

[Ryan Matyas @RyanMatyas1]

Win or lose.. it's about the people. One day a teammate, one day the opposition. It's all the same love. The way this sport brings the world together, deserves a Nobel Peace Prize! 🏅

The B2B Rugby World Cup 🏆champs calling upon the services of former IRFU & USA Rugby Dr. Brian Green.. VERY interesting… For the true Rugby experts.. Dr. Green is the Gilbert Enoka (NZRU ‘00-‘23) USA doesn’t know it could have.. #TheBlackCat

[Murray Kinsella @Murray_Kinsella]

Springboks coach Felix Jones gave expert evidence on behalf of de Jager, while biomechanics researcher Brian Green - formerly of the IRFU - was also involved.

Jones said de Jager had done “all that he was
supposed to do” in the circumstances.
