Roy proves to everyone he's still got it!

A Happy Birthday is in order for the captain, coach and club player Roy Abrehart who turned 50 on Sunday.

How would you celebrate such an achievement? A few friends and family over? A little party? Or.. would you don the sacred boots of Roy-the-Boy Abrehart to help an injury ridden Ravens team at hooker?

That's right, Roy was up the club for a few pints to watch some rugby and volunteered/ was forced to play for the Ravens as they were struggling with injuries.

Roy with his boots and belly full of beer (not dissimilar to his old rugby days) played hooker and helped maintain a competitive game.

Roy's cameo was one many will not forget.. especially after seeing him in the 'streamlined' kit.

If you enjoyed watching an 'old boy' play on Saturday the Roundheads field a side brimming with experience and Morph.

However, don't write them off playing for the 1's as Roy has demonstrated... You don't lose it.
