From Westville Boys High School 1st XV in Durban South Africa, via Durban Collegians, to West Yorkshire. Emile joins looking to get back to playing rugby after some time away from the sport. A physical player who loves a ruck, he can play at centre or loose forward and we look forward to seeing what he can bring to the club.

Ben joins from rugby league where he has played for several Championship and League One clubs, including our neighbours Keighley Cougars. He follows in his brother Chris’ footsteps by crossing codes to join us here at Rose Cottage. The versatile back can fit in anywhere across the back line and has already shown signs of his class with 3 tries in our pre-season fixtures.

George joins from Wharfedale where he came through as a junior and played for both the Foresters and 1st XV, he has also has representative honours for England Deaf. He adds his experience and quality to our front row options.
