Huge game for rejuvenated Burgh

Preview: Waysiders/Drumpellier v Helensburgh - 12 Oct 2019

This Burgh side is full of beans, so come along and support the Greens
- Bodacious McClumpherstson
Burgh have a 21-man squad eager to lock horns with W/D up in Coatbridge, after an uplifting victory over Oban Lorne last week.
But all that hard work will count for nothing if coach David Calderwood's boys can't do the business against a side a place above them in the league.
Cammy Kerr shifts to the tight-head for this one, with Kieran Wallace raring to fill his breenge-tastic boots at No.8. There were a few new faces at training this week - which is most welcome and please, please, keep 'em coming! - among them, full-back Josh Burgess.
Ben Farrar and Ali Rogers miss out but Joe Bull (fly-half) and youth wing-man Nick Fish (bench) are back for this one given it's the school holidays. Eh? They've left school? Sorry, lads.
Competition for places breeds the right mind-set both at training but especially on Game Day and it's so encouraging to see a full squad after a few months of bare bones rugby.
That huge sigh of relief you can hear is the bold Stuart 'Kingy' King! :)
