Dennis off to chase new dream in America

Although his destination is yet to be confirmed, the 34-year-old lock-cum-back rower says the chance to ply his trade in America has come at the perfect time.

Dennis told The Rugby Paper: “I’ve committed to MLR for two seasons and it’s an exciting opportunity, something totally different to what I’ve done before.

“I’ve played for two proud clubs in New South Wales and Exeter with long histories, but in America I’ll be part of something new and that’s a good challenge.

“The other aspect is that our priorities as a family have changed, so it’s a chance to go home to Australia now before getting over to America in February. In between seasons I’ll be back in Australia and I’ll be able to work on some transitional stuff.”

Time we stopped indulging the haka
