#USMLR #rugby
Two for two on franchise debuts getting their franchise-first tries! I have been expecting RFCLA to be the have the best debut season but the bar is set high for them already.
Just turning in after the MIA v CHI match (which was pretty good). Looks like expectations are being met here in the first half.
@baronvonj @usmlr the score doesn’t quite reflect what’s been going on. Freejacks are definitely outplaying Anthem, but it’s been a pretty good match so far.
That’s good to know. Sentiment on Reddit seems to be the talent is evident contrasted with general lack of professional experience. So overall sounds like a win for what the team was stated to have been formed for.
@baronvonj I’d agree with that. The Freejacks were a pretty tough draw for their very first MLR appearance…
