We’re back! Finally the league season starts and it’s a trip to Southport for our 1s. The forwards get a boost with the return of gaffer Simpson at loosehead, while the backs welcome the long-awaited return of Simpson Jr after a two-year layoff. Go well lads!

Congratulations to the big DP who runs out as 3s captain for the first time. TBC’s that good he covers back row, wing and replacements.
