The USA Eagles have made two changes to the team which beat Canada last Saturday for this Saturday's Test against Ireland in Manchester, New Hampshire. Predictably, their newly acquired Kiwi hooker Robbie Flynn makes his first start after a try-scoring debut as replacement, while the University of California lock Matt Kane makes his debut in place of another newcomer last weekend, Tom Kelleher.
