Will be interesting when Oundles new signings come out…hearing a lot of talk that came out of the counties set up that Oundle are staying with what worked this past year and continuing to pick pocket from Ampthill/Cambridge

Having a backrow with Maka and Bercis is a pretty decent start! Can't imagine they need to go crazy

You can add a certain Welsh back rower from Goldington Road for this season…

Blimey sounds like "Oundle have Oodles" of cash and cars for players ! 🤔
I google mapped their set up and it looks like their clubhouse could do with some of that dosh !!

Sounds like some people dont like Oundle splashing the cash....its entirely up to them I guess. Im sure they will heed the experiences of OE's, East Grinstead etc
I am told Tony, that the pitch can be like a quagmire in the winter, not like the super pitch down at Havant. Getting the balance between investment in facilities, encouraging youth, minis, girls and running a semi pro team is not easy as we all know.

I just wanted to add looks like Oundle have signed Matt Dawson from Cambridge — he’s a human wrecking ball! But if they’ve managed to keep hold of Logan Noble, the Scotland U20 player, he’s an absolute star. Their biggest signing will be keeping him |

Latest signings from Henley:
Henley Hawks are delighted to welcome the first raft of new signings to the club for the 2025/26 season including the return of influential centre Connor Hayhow. Hayhow, brother of Hawks hooker Spencer, was at the club for two stints between 2016 and 2018 and his return will add significant firepower to the Hawks midfield. The experienced centre has spent the last two seasons at Camberley in London & South East The League once known as the The League once known as the Premiership iership ier, but before that plied his trade at London Scottish and Rosslyn Park before signing for Rams in National One. Joining Hayhow in Henley colours will be Guernsey Raiders Supporters' Player of the Season Jack Colbourne. Covering several positions across the backline, Colbourne is a real coup for the Hawks having been in excellent form for the Channel Islanders last season. He even scored against Henley at Dry Leas in the Hawks 26-15 victory over the Raiders last November. Completing the trio of new signings, we also welcome second row Ben Elsey. Having represented Nottingam University as well as Harlequins U18's, Elsey will add significant height to the Hawks lineout. Henley Hawks Director of Rugby Luke Allen commented on the trio of new signings, 'I am delighted to welcome Connor, Jack and Ben to Henley and very much look forward to them showcasing their skills in front of Henley supporters when our pre-season fixtures commence in August. We are putting together a really exciting squad that I have no doubt will be challenging at the top of National 2 East come April next year'. Edited by The Hawks - 4 hours 25 minutes ago at 18:39 |
