This will never get completed, but if you can help, it would be appreciated. Please supply pictures and biographies. Biographies are limited to about one text length (160 carachters), but full profiles are welcome, and will be linked to a seperate page. Thanks to anybody who took the pictures, especially Jon Buck

Alan Copley
4-8 1979+? Club Captain, current groundskeeper and general good egg when it comes to making ours the best ground in Yorkshire Ben Ben Jones
Wing. Bob Routledge
2nd Row. No disrespect to anyone but if I had to pick a 2nd row it would be Bob. A Big, hard, no nonsense giant. Scare your kids with stories about him
Brian Pye
Front five. 1979+? I wonder if Brian would agree with me on the previous entry? Charlie Leach
Without the commander this club would not be here Colin Swift
2nd Row
Dale Hughes
Hooker. One of the two best things I ever did for my rugby was practise lineout throw ins with Dale on Christmas day morning. Danny Wheater
Dave Howdell
Prop, 1952+?. Former club captain, chairman, president everything else. Living legend
Dave Mathews
Wing Forward. 1974+??. When he was good he was very very good... Gary Barker
Wing. 1980+? If asked to define elusive, watching Gary play would do the trick. Still can't figure out how he did it. The prestige! Henry Robinson
4 Eva. Not disrespectful, just true.
Jake Telford
Utility 2007+ James Heath
Utility back 2009+ James Jenkins

Joe Perkins
John Trevorrow
