Captain
Match Day Superstitions N - Never gets psyched up, prefers the laid back approach.
Most Admired International Player N - Apart from myself, Jean Baptiste Lafond.
S (Witney Players) -
Chris Delaney Why : For his "never say die spirit". Once, he had his scrum cap ripped off against Gordon League, at half time, he returned with a Gordon League sock tied to his head !
Jack Skyrme, Pete Rhea and Nick Brown, who after an argument behind the posts on who was to blame for a try against us, proceeded to fight each other and could not be parted until the final whistle (against Gloucester Spartons).

Editors Comment
My memories of Steve are when he played in the Centre and the opposition would think they were in for an easy afternoon against a "slightly" overweight old'un. By the end of the match, they were glad to hear the final whistle.
As for Nathan, he obviously lacks self confidence but loves the running game and between he and I running from our own line, we set up a cracking try for Tim Walker against Bicester a couple of season ago.
