Our thoughts go out to Perry and his family. We cannot imagine their sorrow.

To mark our respect for Max one minutes applause will be held before the 1st XV match on Saturday at pitch-side.

I am sure you all agree with me that this is a fitting tribute to a young man who played for the club from Junior rugby through to being a successful Chindits Captain, a true Blue in every sense of the word.

Please support our tribute, as always, One club, together.
