    Coaching with the Ealing Trailfinders pros

    It was a special training session this week with Ealing Trailfinders professionals Ollie Newman and Tyler Bocks coming down to Vallis Way to help pass their experience on to the squad. The pair tells us what they ran through in their sessions, as well as how life in the Championship and Premiership Cup is treating them this season. We also hear from head coach Phil 'Smudger' Smith, who looks back on a win that delighted the whole club, and ahead to a weekend when all three teams are at home. #BleedGreen Saturday 16 November 1st XV v Hitchin (H) 15.00 2nd XV v Twickenham (H) 13.00 3rd XV v UCS (H) 14.00 Hosted on Acast.

    Richard Rhydderch-Roberts

    Richie Triple R is one of the club's new faces this season and has already made it a home away from home. The Welsh-born, Middlesex rep has already made his mark at Vallis Way, bringing his experience and quality to the field in the No.9 shirt. We chat about what brought him down to the club, what Ealing Trailfinders players Michael Strong and Cameron Terry taught them, and which song he belted out as part of his initiation. #BleedGreen Saturday 26 October 1st XV - Datchworth (A) - 15.00 2nd XV - Old Priorian (A) - 15.00 3rd XV - Finsbury Park (A) - 14.00 Hosted on Acast.

    Dave 'Brathers' Brathwaite

    Dave 'Brathers' Brathwaite is asking the lads one thing this October, get on the phone to your GP and book a PSA test. Prostate Cancer kills 12,000 men every year, there are 52,000 new diagnoses, and 475,000 men are living with or have had prostate cancer.  He's asking that you get yourself checked (a simple blood test) to rule out or receive an early diagnosis. Get it booked now.  We also look ahead to a big weekend for the 1st XV, and reflect on a big win for the 1871 Women.  #BleedGreen Saturday 19 October 1st XV v Brunel (H) - 17.00 2nd XV v London Japanese (A) - 14.00 Sunday 20 October 1871 Women v Aylesbury (A)  Hosted on Acast.

    Flynn Ward

    Flynn Ward, a man whose blood is nothing but green, a man who took his first steps in rugby at Vallis Way, and is ready to make a belated, injury-affected start to the season.  He's aiming for the first weekend in November for his return and to help the team push on after a strong start to the season.  Flynn talks us through his injury prognosis, his positional switch, and where he disappeared to last season. #BleedGreen Saturday 12 October Ealing 1871 1sts v Hackney (A) 15.00 2nds v Finchley (A) 13.30 3rds v Old Streetonians (H) 15.00 Sunday 13 October Ealing 1871 Women v Oxford Harlequins 2nds (A)  Hosted on Acast.

    Andrew 'Quickie' Quick

    Andrew Quick is a very busy boy, with more fingers in Ealing Trailfinders pies than Little Jack Horner. A community coach for the professional sides, the head coach of the 1871 women's team, an assistant coach for the men's teams, and occasionally a player. It's quite the full plate for someone who grew up wanting to play rugby league or lead the line for Everton, but he loves life at Vallis Way and explains how it al the different parts of the puzzle link up. #BleedGreen 5/6 October - No match Hosted on Acast.

    Luke Parry

    He's back....hirsute hooker Luke Parry has returned to Vallis Way after a season living and playing and Kent, and he can't keep the smile off his face now that he's back in W13. We chat about where he's been, who he's been playing for, why he's returned, and all manner of science that only one of us understood. Luke also regales us with stories of his past as a (try-scoring) Cambridge Blue at Twickenham, and what it takes to upset a former England fly-half. #BleedGreen Saturday 21 September Ealing 1871 1sts v Chiswick (A) - 15.00 Ealing 1871 3rds v Belsize Park (A) - 15.00 Sunday 22 September Hosted on Acast.
