David Matthews Day - who else in the photo?

Post by Not a jock »

I was trying to pick out some names in the photo but am struggling - could be Andy Matthews and someone Gavins? Anyone able to name them all?!

Hopefully, will take users' minds off other things for a few minutes.

If you don't go in hard it's not a tackle it's an insult.

Yes, thanks. At least I got one right (DM).

I remember my dad taking me to see Tigers vs World XV around that time - possibly midweek?
