The Americas Rugby Championship is underway and the highlight plays are already rolling in.
MacGinty The Mad Hatter
MacGinty tipped the hat in his return from injury scoring three tries for the Eagles. MacGinty made Chile look slow and out of sorts and should be an early favorite for ARC Player of The Tournament.

Pluck of The Irish
When a front rower gets an interception the world must know. Hooker Leah Lyons high stepped toward the try line with her head on a swivel as if she had never seen so much green grass in front of her.
Prop interception! You don't see that every day. #SixNations pic.twitter.com/92IUkh5n3V

Slade Steals Tuilagi Show
Manu Tuilagi is back and so is England.
This weekend it was his center pair Henry Slade that did the real damage for England and Tuilagi may have been more excited about it than England fans.
Manu Tuilagi was every @EnglandRugby fan when Henry Slade scored the first of his tries against Ireland!#IREvENG reaction ? https://t.co/MWRkpYELbc pic.twitter.com/qPVjZeUjRz

Slade sarcastically hopes the duo will keep it up.
'It’s the first time I’ve ever had the chance to play with Manu Tuilagi. I really enjoyed playing with him and who knows? Maybe we can carry on.' #GuinnessSixNations #IREvENG

England’s parade over Ireland wasn’t all about the backs, Vunipola made a stunning 25 tackles against Ireland…25.
Just the 25 tackles for Lions ? powerhouse @Mako_Vunipola as @EnglandRugby claim victory in Dublin ?

Ok, maybe it was all about the backs. Head coach Eddie Jones made the peculiar decision to slot Jack Nowell in at flanker in a scrum. Nowell plays wing for Exeter and England, but Eddie Jones felt he could be utilized in the flanker rotation and made the move against Ireland.
Fijian Flyer
Fiji can score in 6.78 seconds and that is a terrifying thing. Japan switched off for just a second (or 6) and Alosio Naduva reached 36 km/h and soared like an acrobat for the try.
