(Well, not that cup) but this weekend sees the Exiles First team take on their old foes Chipstead in the 4th round of The National Junior Vase. Last Saturday the Seconds narrowly beat Chipstead in a very closely fought encounter and I'm sure it could be a similar situation this weekend. There is only one match on Saturday so please make the effort to turn up and support if you are available and not selected for the squad. The match will be played at home at Barn Elms and the kick off is 2:15. Go...

EXILES 34 - CROYDON 18
Last Saturday the Exiles travelled away to the deepest darkest depths of Croydon. After the usual nightmare journey we all arrived in one piece despite some maverick driving from Coach Phil.
Due to the frost the ref deemed their 1sts pitch unplayable meaning the match was moved to the much smaller back-up pitches on the other side of the road.
During an ‘intense’ game of touch Zac Frei seemed to have been taken out by a sniper and hit the deck, squealing i...

This weekend see the start of the second half of what has so far been a great season for the club. Let's work hard to make it to training and make ourselves available at the weekends so that both teams can push forward and build on the good work done so far. On Saturday the 1st XV take on old rivals Croydon at their place. They will be looking to make amends after our previous encounter this season where we piled on the points against an unusually understrength Croydon side. They will undoubtedl...

Happy New Year gents! I hope you are all well and thoroughly rested after an enjoyable festive period!
We’re back at training this Wednesday (7pm Battersea Arena) – we’ll ease ourselves back into things with a bit of a run around, nothing too intense, but it should help to blow away some of the cobwebs.
We also have a warm up game this Saturday against Old Reigatians at home kicking off at 1pm. Please can everyone make themselves available as I’d like to be able to change the entir...

EXILES 37 - CL LONDON 6
An excellent, although hard fought win against CL London keeps us in first position in the league at the halfway point of the 2011/12 campaign. The game was very tight until halftime but ultimately we managed to put together some good phases to secure the win comfortably. Well done to everyone for your efforts so far this season. Enjoy the christmas break and aim to come back even stronger in the new year.
The two's were less fortunate and suffered a 29-5 loss to Ol...

Last weekend the 1st XV beat Old Walcountians 39-14 to put themselves in first place in Surrey 1 just before the halfway mark of the season. This is a fantastic acheivment and we have not been in this position for a very long time. The scoreline was however rather flattering to us and apparently masked a less than entirely impressive performance. At training this week Huppers said that on the whole we simply needed to 'front up'. So many times this season we have made life difficult for ourse...

Gents,
A fantastic day of rugby (and entertainment!) last weekend! The 1’s winning 32-23 and the 2’s winning 61-21. More reports (both match and otherwise) to follow shortly.
Two things:-
Firstly, we have only one game this weekend – 1st XV away at Old Walcountians – this is going to be a tough one, the last 2 years we’ve gone down there and come away with a 17-17 all draw each time. If we want to win this league, we have ...

OP'S 3 - EXILES 19
Last Saturday saw the 1st XV travel to Old Priorians in search of their Twickenham dream. Previous results suggested this was going to be a hard fought fixture and a tough physical battle was inevitable.
Injuries throughout the week unsettled the run up procedures however the depth of talent in the club proved to be invaluable with some last minute call ups being made on Friday night to get the 19 man squad in place.
The warm up did not go quite to...
