Aiden King

We haven't announced the lineup, but I'll throw one out there because we're super excited about it.

We've got Benjamin William Hastings and Aiden King coming this next year.

Have you heard the record they did together? No, I haven't yet.

They did a record together called Happy to Be Here.

I feel like he's going to be right in there.

Aiden King's going to pitch on Friday, and Morris is going to be there on Saturday, and they're going to win a lot of games.

He was my number one pitcher on the board.

I'm not surprised he went before I was prepared to start taking pictures.

Let's see.

The Star Tour, Ann Wilson with support from Aiden King.

Aiden King, it's spelled oddly.

Well, but it's not saying if it's the Ann Wilson.

Yeah, that's why I'm not sure.

See what he can do.

And Aiden King, another player who, I mean, he's currently over in England with the championship, but I think it'd be cool to pull him in and see if he can just play a couple of games for the U.S. And he's another guy who's been on the edge of selection, partly is just suffering from the fact that we've already got quite a lot of good and significantly more experienced flankers.

in the u.s setup but yeah i i want to to see him play for the falcons

Same here.

So really good for him to get a contract in the top league, Division 2, I think that is.

We're also seeing Aiden King get a shot in the championship as well with Doncaster, which is really, really cool.

And, you know, a couple of Canadians getting contracts too abroad, which obviously will not be subsidized by USA Rugby.

But we're seeing, you know, DeWald Putzer is actually playing also in Yorkshire, like Aidan Kane, just with Rotherham, who are newly promoted to the championship.

Obviously, DC had the first overall pick, so they're going to get the pick of the litter, as it were.

I think Logan Ballinger is a really good pick.

I think the signing of Aiden King and Doncaster cemented that as going, OK, they're probably going to pick a back row.

This guy is Rudy Schultz nominee, USA U-20, USA U-23.

So again, all the other... signings we kind of broke down last episode you can check out James's night the graphic looks nice man I like the new the graphic looks very good it's a nice new look check out at NA Rugby DP again the transaction tweet that we get every week or so in this case an amalgamation of the past 20 days is always one that not only fantasy managers in the fantasy MLR space needed to pay attention to but just a rugby fan as a whole when it comes to MLR.

And we talked about the likes of Charlie Abel, Devolt Kotsa, Aiden King, and Piers von Dattelson, who are also... heading overseas, but Will Sherman, obviously, being that latest one there.

Yeah, Piers van Delsen,

I don't think we did, actually, because there was no actual announcement to that.

And I think Goff did a great job of kind of explaining that.

And that made me interested to search them more and kind of figure out what they have done and what they've accomplished in their collegiate and young playing days.

There is a trend, and I don't know if this stuck out to you, that instead of necessarily picking positional needs, and maybe you could argue Ballinger was a positional need because Aiden King obviously went overseas and he's a flanker, but... what stood out to me, especially in the first round, but that even kind of transpired throughout the rest of the draft, is teams are just trying to look for good rugby players.

Like, guys that can do, like, that's why I, like, you're not seeing a lot of, you know, hyper-specialized wingers getting drafted, right? The only winger was David Cathcart that was drafted in there, right? Like, you're seeing guys that, like, are just all-around fantastic rugby players.
