Welcome all to today’s match, one which, with all due respect to what’s going on in the rest of the league, will pretty much determine the outcome of the top spots in the league this season. That it falls on a non International weekend is excellent news for both teams, as a bumper crowd should be here to witness the top two slug it out... Metaphorically one trusts, not literally.
The Academy rugby sessions have suffered, (if that’s the right phrase), along with the rest of the sporting world in recent weeks in the South East. Inches and inches, or about 20 centimetres if you’re so inclined, of snow was the first to fall, followed by the big freeze and just when you thought it was safe to tread the turf again, buckets of rain. All three types of weather conspired to prevent the pitches being used and so indoors we went, or relied on the guys to do their own thing away from the club. That they have returned in as good a shape as we could have expected, without the weekly practical sessions says much about their discipline and commitment, so well done guys. |
