PROPS SIGN FOR THE CAUSE
One ball has been signed by several England players, including Woodman and fellow prop Phil Vickery. Another had been autographed by Australia's captain in the final, George Gregan.
In providing the rugby spectacle on the pitch, the Corsairs and the Wooden Spoon Club guest sides will draw on players drawn from the top two divisions of the National League. These will be joined by players from Worthing in providing what would be expected to be the highest quality of rugby yet seen at Roundstone Lane.
