Tubby Timmy Fawcett loves a smash

19. Best tourist? Touring’s too much fun for me, but I’ve heard some great stories about Price.

20. Best Player You Have Played With: It used to be Watkins when he played a few games in the 2s, but Dan Ward last season got six tries in two games so it’s probably him. Still not happy Worcester academy selfishly didn’t want him to play for Old Tiffs....

21. Hardest to tackle at the club: Carvill – the size, speed, and angles make it a seriously unappetising prospect.

22. Goals for the season: Finish top three, not have to cancel any 2s games, continue to avoid being made to neck pints.
