After a heavy defeat last week the 2’s returned to Hurlingham to face Horsham alongside the 1’s in a double header. This truly was a mongrel team, with the returning Joe Carolan, Steve John and Ben Hibberd featuring in a team-sheet oozing sex appeal. From kick-off we looked comfortable with ball in hand, working the […]
Hammers came into the weekend on a positive note after a hard fought loss to Jersey where they put in an impressive performance against a tough side. Coming off 2 bad losses to Stags last season, redemption was on the minds of the players, but sadly this was not that kind of movie. Minute 1, […]
Hammers entered the match hoping to build on their hard-fought victory against Battersea Ironsides from the previous week. However, they faced a strong Stags side that included three first XV players dropped to the 2s for “rest” and a deep bench with seven substitutes as well as this a total of 12 personnel changes for […]
The classic cliché of a game of two halves, with the boys finally getting into gear in the second half sunshine. A tough day out for the Hammers 3’s with a team of just 13 players showing up for the beginning of the contest, on a fantastic day for running rugby. A show a chivalry […]

A game of two halves is a bit of an understatement. It was more a game of the first 20 minutes and the final 60. Defensively the game started strong for the Hammers with great line speed and tackles being made. On attack, twenty minutes into the game things settled down and the team found […]
An exciting day for 2s rugby, as the sun was beaming down from the get-go; this promised some beautiful Hammers joue rugby and the boys looking to set things right after their heavy defeat to Dorking the week before. Disappointingly, Ironsides had similar ideas, and with the Hammers scrum under the cosh from the offset, […]
September. The leaves? Starting to brown. The sky? Grey. The wind? Blowing. The summer? Didn’t happen. The preseason? Long. Josh AA? Still tiny. The Rugby? Here. Now. In Brighton. Having survived the promotion to Level 5 the season before and brimming with a confidence that comes from knowing they belonged, it was an excited […]
