SURREY RUGBY
my information came from mr H. Anscombe himself He used to be Chichester player and as "Chi" is only 8 miles up the road from us a few of our players know him well and he told them Dorking OUTBID another club for his services!!! I suggest you ask him next time you see him and let me know if it is just a rumour?

It's not only about "paying" it's also material benefits something very often overlooked when saying we've never paid

Havant Tony is ill informed and guessing. A lot of throwaway comments for success, are you must be paying your players!
Dropout22, PM009 and Kentish Man are very well informed and are correct. I will add if any of Sevenoaks, Dorking or North Walsham are promoted, the challenge of staying up becomes a lot more difficult if you do not play players. They kind of expect it at that level. Dorking were promoted to Nat 2 South approx 6 years ago. Did brilliantly in the first season and finished 4th. Because they DID NOT PAY (and never have), a number of players left to joining Richmond, Rosslyn Park etc to gain a better level. We were sad to see them go, but you have to wish your best players the best of luck. In the 2nd season, we were relegated. Best you stay with your financial model. Im proud of the way Dorking behave and if we play at level 5 or lower to maintain our community model, then so be it! |

Hi Tony

Hi Tony
Its Henry Anscombe. He had unfortunately suffered an injury pre-season which may explain his appearance of late. Best, Vuarnet

Makes more sense than coming from the other side of the world in a pandemic for absolutely nothing to play rugby

I know he is/was a CRC for Rural Surrey so wouldn’t be surprised. Interesting model, pay him to coach but he plays for free

PM009 I understand that Henry Birch has joined Dorking as forwards coach after the departure of Matt Higginns and has subbed a couple of times for them

Along with Henry Birch. Some serious negotiating skills by Dorking getting them both in mid season for nothing

So if Dorking dont pay then I can only wonder why Harry Anscombe who dropped a league mid season and joined Dorking from Worthing a Nat 2 side(who pay all of their players) ?
I know Brockham is a lovely part of the world but I dont reckon he joined for the scenery😂

A re-read of RFU regulation 7 and Part A material benefit FAQs Is always useful

What a ridiculous comment. Why assume that Dorking pay? Just because a team is successful doesn’t mean that they have to pay to achieve their success. Dorking are an example of a well run club.

I suspect Dorking pay some of their players at least. |

Finally we can agree on something, Dorking and Sevenoaks are very similar, if you know what I mean
