One to watch, though I was disappointed in this:
"The trophy is named after the man considered the founder of the game when he picked up a ball during a game of football at Rugby school."

Historians generally agree that whatever he may or may not have done in one particular game, he did not change the way Rugby football was played. 3 years after he left, running with the ball was still forbidden.

Current Referee grade:
Select Grade
Final round of qualifying games are scheduled to be played on 7/10/2006 so final line up will be known after those matches.
