Gloucester new boy Nicky Robinson marked his return to international rugby after a three-year absence by scoring 12 points with his boot.

Wales ran home six tries as they ended their tour of North America with a comfortable 48-15 win against the United States.

Mark Jones, Jonathan Davies (two), Tom James and Gareth Cooper all got across the try-line, along with a penalty try, for victory in Chicago.

And for Robinson, the Windy City was a perfect place to make his successful comeback as it is the home of his favourite American football team, the Chicago Bears.

“I’m a big fan of American football and the Chicago Bears are my team,” Robinson, 27, said.

“My mum went to America when I was six years old and she brought my brother Jamie a (Miami) Dolphins helmet back and I was given a Bears one.

“I wouldn’t say I’m a massive fan, but I do look out for their results and like to watch them on the television on a Sunday night.”

Robinson and his fellow Wales kickers Dan Biggar and Daniel Evans got an even closer look at the Bears last week when they visited the NFL team’s training facility in Lake Forest, Illinois to watch their gridiron counterparts put through their paces during a pre-season practice session.

Organised by the Wales team’s kit supplier Under Armour, which also has commercial ties with the Bears, Robinson and co. met Pro Bowl kicker Robbie Gould and punter Brad Maynard, both of whom played in the Super Bowl XLI defeat to the Indianapolis Colts in February 2007.

“It’s great to have been able to go to their training ground,” Robinson said. “I’m sure there would have been lots of people who would have loved to have seen this.

“It’s a real privilege to see the Bears and I don’t think we realise how big stars some of these people really are.

“It’s great to see what they do on a day-to-day basis, especially with their season start still a fair way off. They work so hard.”

Robinson also watched the rest of the Bears players run through scrimmages with new team quarterback Jay Cutler as they sought to impress coaches in a bid to make the cut for the final 2009 season squad.
