United States prop Hope Rogers has signed a new contract with Exeter for the forthcoming Premiership Women’s Rugby season.<\/p>\n
Rogers, 32, became the USA’s most-capped player earlier this summer and was Exeter’s top try-scorer last season.<\/p>\n
Her 10 tries helped her be named in the league’s Dream Team, while she was also named in World Rugby’s Women’s 15s Dream Team of the Year in 2024.<\/p>\n
“There is no doubt Hope is an outstanding international player and is a threat every time she takes to the field,” Exeter interim head coach Steve Salvin said.<\/p>\n
“Her exceptional low centre of gravity makes her almost impossible to stop at close quarters, which what makes her such a danger in the red zone.”<\/p>\n
Rogers made her Exeter debut in January 2022 and has gone on to play 48 times, scoring 47 tries along the way. <\/p>\n
“I’m really excited for my fifth season here at Chiefs and I’m looking forward to building with the squad,” Rogers said.<\/p>\n
“Hopefully we can carry the momentum from the World Cup into our season and continue to grow and showcase women’s rugby.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"United States prop Hope Rogers has signed a new contract with Exeter for the forthcoming Premiership Women’s Rugby…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":18739,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[567],"tags":[64,63,760,85],"class_list":["post-18738","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-rugby","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18738","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18738"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18738\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18739"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18738"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18738"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18738"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
