00:33 is an insane individual play, the ability to get the chasedown tackle and not let her score to then get up and get the penalty before anyone else is around is RIDICULOUS

[michaelsilva]

She’s a beast! Hard hitting. Fast. Smart. Amazing player.

[zoogie]

Yeah she is a powerful runner and has a nasty fend but 0:33 really stood out to me. It's such a high-level play, idk if the average US fan can appreciate what she did there. The chasedown, tackle, getting to her feet, showing hands off, and then attacking the ball to get a no-release penalty. Literally textbook and she did it so fast. I did this a few times in my college 7s days and to me it was a better feeling than scoring a try. I used to watch alot of college and club rugby like 10 years ago when I played and tbh there was a noticeable skill gap between the men and womens teams. Not anymore. Women's rugby has come so far, especially in the US, and its incredibly fun to watch. Thank you for uploading and shoutout to all my rugby brothers and sisters around the world. I am so incredibly proud of our US Eagles.

Again really appreciate ur coverage of the women's game. Not many others do it let alone so well :)

[lukasmeggs]

Having seen how funny she is on social media, I always forget that she can back it up on the field as well lmao

[kevinwhitfield]

Wide receiver speed, running back breaking tackles ability and hits harder than a linebacker. Total package.

[visotoo]

Out of the many great moments and memories from Paris, nothing has stayed with me more than the final moments of the women's rugby bronze medal match, which I was watching live. Congratulations to the entire team!

[mhorlor]

The tackle, jackal speed is a lesson to all. Awesome player.

[Keza]

This kind of coverage is fantastic for Rugby and Rugby 7s in the US, she is also an absolute weapon on the field

[JKMeZmA]

Fantastic to see more women’s players getting the plaudits and recognition 💪

[MrSpleenboy]

Nice! Glad you highlighted the work she does in defence as much as what she does in attack. Great technique tackling and jackalling. And one hell of a fend... I know I wouldn't argue with her! 😃

[johnmcneill]

She is an inspiration to me and my daughters. Grit and grace all in one person.

[vivianeborkholder]

Ilona has made me a fan of rugby! This is awesome!

[elizabethfox]

What a powerhouse!! I love ILHONA! So inspiring. Happy for young girls who get to look up to her. I am a grown woman and I look up to her! Channeling Ilohna next time I'm in the gym! Lol She is an incredible athlete who is smart, hilarious, and so considerate. What a great role model and example. Thanks for the highlight compilation. I've been looking for something like this. Saved it to my favorite videos just so I could reference back when discussing her with others. Great stuff!

[bronzemen]

She is love her style, her passion and think she is absolutely beautiful inside and out

Truly an American Icon in rugby...She has faced adversity on and off the field but has always remained positive thru it all

❤

[extremesportsify]

I hope she does wonderful things for our sport! Proper legend

[rcwariii]

She definitely has a higher gear then most of her field. ❤
Absolutely amazing. She's incredible.

[deweyhobie]

What a beast. She runs likes Earl Campbell and tackles likes Dick Butkus. For you younger people out there look them up on the Internet. They were absolute destroyers in the NFL.

[keakuawaleno]

She looks like a freaking shield maiden 😮 2:54 what a textbook tackle

[TheDrew]

I thoroughly enjoyed this. When she tucks her chin and shifts gears, it's over. Gotta get a Ilona Maher jersey for me and my daughter 😂
