Strolling to the warm-up |
Hop-a-long |
Poised to spring. Note one of many 'borrowed' players for the day. |
We had 14, which meant we borrowed a couple of props for each game from other teams. Credit to Wolfie (Bury), who played all our games and has been hopefully recruited permanently for next year. Great to see Simmo on the touchline supporting the team.
