I only want what’s best for the club and have done so for the 28yrs on the inside as well as the 30 plus years on the outside looking in. I am not and have never been an employee of the club just a supporter.There have been 7 chairman in my time including myself so seen it all.

While I disagree with Borley’s comment that’s a bit of an overreaction, he wants what’s best for the club and has to stand by the guys he works for, who are Dalman & Tan.

Proper rugby nights under the lights you would be pushed to find a better half back partnership than @dbish09 and @MarkRing10 then and now

Irrespective of the Grand Final outcome (and frankly, we fancy ourselves!) this has been another fine season for the club and we continue to go from strength to strength. A record 244 players registered across all age groups and an even broader offer planned for 2025. Happy Days!

@MarkRing10 in tandem with @dbish09 …….what’s the plural of genius? They were the Edwards/Bennett of their era….being on the same pitch (with whistle) gave a better view!
