Today we are very fortunate to be joined by Rugby United New York's very own Troy Lockyear. Despite having grown up in the UK and going to school here, Troy went to college at Berkley and has stayed out in the states ever since chasing a dream of playing rugby professionally. Now a crucial member in the MLR for New York.

We talk to Troy about his journey to date and how he has got where he is today. We question him about his brief partnership with the French legend Mathieu Basteraud and playing some true legends of the game who are now plying their trade over in the States.

We also chat briefly about his hobbies away from the game. Troy is not only skilled with a rugby ball but also with a pack of cards and we chat all things to do with his magic.

A really enjoyable conversation for both of us, especially Matt who's journey to date is one very similar to Troy's. We hope you enjoy this as much as we did.
