Moseley Matters Squad
Update
Moseley Matters today confirms that
Dual Registered players
Returning players who would be dual registered with Moseley and Gloucester
include Henry Trinder, Charlie Sharples, Jordi Pasqualin, Tristan Roberts, Dan
Williams, and Yann Thomas.
Exciting newcomers who also come into this category this year include
Freddie Burns (fly
half), Johnny May
(centre), and
Charlie Simpson Daniel (wing converted from scrum half).
There are some other players covered by Moseley’s arrangement with Gloucester
who will be announced later after the proper procedures have been followed.
Departures
The club would like to thank Paul Arnold, Ritchie Bignall, Ollie Thomas and
George Davis, who have left the club, for their much appreciated contributions.
We trust they have enjoyed the Moseley experience on the pitch, the training
ground, the community development team and the social side of the club.
They all know that they will be made very welcome as and when they return to
Billesley (apart from the 80 minutes on the pitch if they’re playing for the
opposition!). We wish them well in the future:
Other players
There are still a couple of other places to be filled in the squad and these are
currently being finalised. All others from last year’s squad have been signed or
are in the process of doing so. (Some are away on holiday). The squad is looking
good! A full squad list will appear in next month’s edition.
Sign up for MM now
