Final Bow for Mac at Leeds
International - Americans Overseas


Two USA players will be leaving Leeds Carnegie at the end of the season, following the club’s elimination from the RFU Championship playoffs.

The change is part of a wholesale housecleaning Head Coach Diccon Edwards, as the club will not be resigning several veteran players.

All-time top USA caps-earner Mike MacDonald and previously-capped scrumhalf Robbie Shaw will leave the club, along with 12 others after this weekend’s final game, against the Cornish Pirates.

Shaw is not in the 22 for this weekend, but MacDonald will start at loosehead prop, making his 128th appearance for the club.

Shaw leaves Ledds having played 20 times for them.
