A big day ahead, the longest coach trip of the year, a potential banana skin if past seasons are anything to go by and the thought of Six bottles of Lambrini’s on the horizon created an anxious buzz around the group. Arriving at the ground the excitement began to grow, with facilities and grounds every […]
The world is changed. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air. Much that once was is lost. The world is changed. Ed Wynne and Scott Van Berkel are out injured attempting to carry the weight of Jacob Poulton’s inflated sense of TrussEconomics. Ollie Weaver […]
Match Report: Hammers III v Chiswick II Saturday 15th October saw a Hammersmith and Fulham 3rd XV handily beat a well drilled Chiswick 2nd XV. Hammers took the game by the horns when after a well recovered kick off in the opposition 22 and good phase play from the forwards, Jack Hooper was put over […]
Once again the rugby gods smiled down on us and we had bright sunshine for our trip to the top of the Northern Line. Unusually we also arrived to find that the Hampstead pitches still had grass on them! Clearly we should travel up there early every year. As expected it was a tough game […]
What on earth is going on in the house of commons… Another Saturday was upon us forecasting yet another train strike and, of course, a spot of champagne rugby. The boys turned up rolling dice after the 2 hour, 20 mile car journey to Old Haberdashers’ RFC just north of the city; nevertheless, the sun […]

It was a truly glorious day for rugby with the sun shining down and all the forwards wishing it wasn’t quite so warm. With the 1s focus on our new structure of play we faced up against S&E for what we knew would be an intense game. Sutton scored the early points with their 10 […]
Ok, I’m going to start this with a bit of a confession. I have a memory like a sieve. Like remembering stuff for me is tough. Not like medical evaluation tough but let’s just say scat testing for me is always an interesting proposition. So with that being said, if I don’t mention too many […]
Two-weeks on since I last saw Hammersmith & Fulham Men’s 1st XV score 87 points, the time had arrived, a local derby, one that had not been seen for some time, the battle of the parks, Hurlingham vs Regents, Hammers vs Belsize, who would come out on top? As my brothers and I were wrapped […]
With Hampstead calling off the week before, Hammers 4s were made to wait another week to sink their teeth into the 22-23 season proper. After a top-2 finish and play-off final appearance last season, hopes were high that this year would be another full of success, wins, and beer. Unfortunately only one of these would […]
