Coaches Take on MHRFC's 2007/2008 Season2007- 08. On the playing front
the players who represented the first XV basically achieved a 55% win
ratio which was a fair reflection on the season, this though would have
been better if we'd started the season in the same frame of mind and with
the same commitment, availability and leadership that we grew over the
last two thirds of the season. So What’s New?...So what’s new? I hear you ask…Well the biggest news is that after many years as Club Chairman, GG has stepped down to be replaced by Alex Airey. GG has spent the last season coaching Alex in the many areas of being Club Chairman (including how to drink red wine and sing in a Welsh choir, at an expert level). Everyone at the club would like to thank GG for his many years of hard work in being Club Chairman (if it weren’t for him, the club would not be in as strong a position today, as it is). We would also like to welcome Alex into his new position, and although they are big shoes to fill, I’m sure everyone will agree that Alex will be just the man for the job. We also welcome Lee Johnson as First Team Captain. Lee has been at Mill Hill since he was a Colt, and his heart and soul are in this club, making him an ideal candidate for Captain. Lee is a strong character both on and off the pitch, and I’m sure he’ll want to see you on the pitch just as much as he’ll want to see you in the bar afterwards, having a drink. During the Summer, some of you may have noticed that we have been sharing our clubhouse with St Keirnan’s Gaelic Football Team. In exchange for this, they have made some vital repairs to the building, including replacement of sections of the roof, being completed by professionals. The start of the Rugby World Cup 2007 is upon us... From the 7th September, there will be six weeks of truly World class rugby, all ending on 20th October with the final in Saint-Denis.
