ADULTS £5 U16 FREE ADMISSION BY PROGRAM CHARD v St AUSTELL SATURDAY MARCH 9TH 2019 2:30pm Chairman’s Message Welcome to everyone including the players and committee of St Austell RFC. If you looked at the Western Counties league table after last Saturday you would probably be thinking oh no, another defeat but strange things happen in rugby…who would have thought Wales would beat England…I did!!! But then I am Welsh and that’s why I’m sure we have got a chance today. It’s a long way to travel. I hope you will all have a good look at our new kitchen, it really is something and must be the best in the West. Lots of effort went on behind the scenes by a lot of very committed individuals so a very big thank you to them from everyone in the club. Unfortunately, results didn’t go our way last Saturday, even the Wing Commanders (our 2nd XV) lost after a long winning streak, but we must look at the positives and keep the faith as we are nearly at the end of the season. The new Director of Rugby, Luke Aplin has been busy behind the scenes planning for next season and has began to look for our new Head coach as Jim takes a step down, and to expand the coaching team and of course he is recruiting new players to add depth to our teams with the emphasis on producing a first class back line which I know will be key to progressing. OK, let’s get behind the boys today – it will be tight to avoid relegation but I for one have every faith in them. Enjoy the match.

We have had some great games against St Austell in recent years. Depending on who has been looking at promotions to the different leagues we have faced each other in, there have been some great encounters! However, in recent seasons, we have to admit that St Austell have had the beating of us, more often than not. A stat' that we need to overturn this afternoon! As I write this, Storm Freya has just been through, the injury list has not yet been published, but I hope we have as strong a side as we possibly can put out! Injuries have hampered our efforts recently, despite the efforts of our physio Mel'. Add to this the news that 1 or more players may also be lost to us in the run in - I hope not however. But other sides also have injuries, so we have to play the hand we are dealt. Recent news on the coaching front is equally impactful, with Jim (Waggy) coaching the side for what will be his last stint as Seniors Coach. "We thank you Jim" for your help and efforts in trying to make our players better than what they think they may be and good luck in your ventures next season. Likewise, Richard (Tiny) Baker has asked to be released from his coaching duties, to be able to take up the challenge of rowing the Atlantic, which may prove to be more difficult, than a Saturday afternoon at Essex Close! As a first step to try and steady the ship, Luke Aplin has been appointed D of R, with immediate affect and we hope Luke can bring in some of the recent "Wing Commanders" results to the 1st XV, and starting this afternoon, a win would be a massive bonus! By now, as supporters, I think we all should appreciate where we sit in the League. Despite of the efforts of all of the players and coaching staff, we are coming up short, specially away from Essex Close, more often than not! Results went against us last weekend, but we cannot rely on others, to bail us out of the brown stuff! There are only a few games left now to ensure survival in Western Counties West and play at this level again next season. Let's hope for a positive outcome this afternoon, and shout the boys on to a much needed win. Here's hoping for a great afternoon of Rugby, with Chard just shading a 5 point win! Good luck everyone.
