LA Giltinis franchise pick off another Super Rugby veteran

The threat to Australia's Super Rugby stocks from the United States has deepened with veteran forward Angus Cottrell to play in Los Angeles next year. Cottrell, a Wallabies squad member in 2018, will join Queensland Reds duo Ruan and JP Smith at the Venice Beach-based LA Giltinis for their inaugural season from March next year in the fourth instalment of the USA Rugby sanctioned competition.
The 31-year-old flanker heads to the US after playing 90 games of Super Rugby for the Western Force and Melbourne Rebels.
Cottrell said he had weighed up offers from France, Japan and the United Kingdom before opting to sign with the Giltinis - a team owned by an Australian gym tycoon and named after a yet-to-be released cocktail.
"I've given all I can to Australian rugby for nine seasons and I've been thinking this last year or two of experiencing a different culture through rugby," Cottrell said.
"I was very quick to jump at the Giltinis when the option appeared because LA is a great place to live and an amazing international city."
Cottrell will join the Smith twins in LA after the established Super Rugby pair signed on last month.
Ex-Wallaby Stephen Hoiles is an assistant coach at the Giltinis while former Wallabies hooker Adam Freier is the team's general manager.
The team has also been linked to Matt Giteau and Adam Ashley-Cooper while former Wallabies great Chris Latham is coaching Utah and Drew Mitchell was poised to come out of retirement in New York before the delay.

My name is Alan Criner, and I'm a resident of Toronto, CA. I'm a 45-year-old financial analyst who has always been cautious with my investments. However, in my quest to diversify my portfolio, I fell prey to a devastating fake crypto investment scam, losing 125,000 Canadian dollars' worth of Bitcoin. This traumatic experience sent my life into a downward spiral, leaving me depressed and feeling hopeless.
Despite my repeated attempts to contact the account manager who initially approached me on Telegram, I was met with silence. They refused to provide any explanation or information, and I was locked out of my account on their website. The authorities were unable to assist me, as the scammers were untraceable.
Just when I thought all was lost, my nephew, a Canadian government lawyer, introduced me to Morphohack Cyber Service, a reputable private investigator and crypto recovery company. I visited their website (www . morphohackcyber . com) and, after mustering the courage, contacted them. They listened attentively as I recounted my ordeal and educated me on the scam, revealing that numerous others had fallen victim to the same scheme.
Although skeptical at first, I decided to take a chance. Morphohack guided me through the process, instructing me to set up a new wallet. To my astonishment, they successfully recovered my stolen Bitcoin and transferred it to my new wallet. I was stunned, struggling to comprehend how this was possible.
I initially wanted to keep this experience private, but I realized that there may be others out there who have suffered similar losses. If you're a victim of crypto theft, I urge you to reach out to Morphohack Cyber Service. They can be contacted through their website or email.
