T�e V�e� f�o� t�e C�a�r Shaun Hammond I would like to extend a warm welcome to our guests today at the Big Field, Blackheath RFC. They arrive on the final day of the season not only as deserved Champions of National 2 East, but as one of the oldest “Clubs” in the world and first time visitors to Dorking.

Our opening match at Blackheath back in September seems a long time ago! With the experience we have gained across the whole season, we are looking forward to a tough game today in which we can benchmark ourselves against the top side and start preparing for the new season.

I would like to thank all of our invaluable sponsors and volunteers who have supported the club so well, enabling the Senior sides and all our Youth sections to perform so strongly this year.

Finally, on behalf of all the Club. I would like to thank Armand, all the coaches and especially all the players for their considerable efforts and commitment this year.

You have collectively performed wonderfully and provided quality rugby, much enjoyment and entertainment for us all. Thank you.

Best regards, Shaun Hammond Chairman, Dorking Rugby Club

A W�r� f�o� t�e D�R�.� Armand Roux This is to be our last game of our 2022-23 National 2 campaign and what a season it has been.

A big welcome to Blackheath players, management and supporters. Congratulations on your promotion. I’m sure Shanners and the team is hard at work towards making your return to National 1 go with a bang.

We have had one hell of a season so far and today will not be any different as both teams are looking to go out on a high.

While I have the opportunity I would love to thank our Partners, Sponsors, Supporters and Volunteers who make each match day as special as it is. The playing group massively appreciates the fact that we have got such wonderful support around us. Personally I can’t ask for any more.

Also special thanks to James Catton who hangs up his boots this weekend.

It’s been an amazing ride James, thanks pal.

So, let’s get behind the boys one last time as we finish our season for both the 1s and the 2s today.

Thanks for all your support

All the best, Armand Roux Director of Rugby, Dorking Rugby Club #WACOMB XX AND S�ARE�.� DON�T MISS A T�ING� FOLLOW, LIKE

COC� FACTS

OD

Dear readers, Wow – what a season. Finally, it’s the last fixture and boy is it a big one! We welcome Blackheath 1s (congrats on the promotion gents) and 2s to the Big Field for an almighty ending to this incredible season for DRFC. Across senior rugby, not only have we seen huge success in our 1st XV’s return to National 2, finishing on target in the top 25% of the league, we have also seen the 2nd XV come a close second in their league, the 3s back firing on all cylinders with some cracking wins and the ladies led by Pip Merrett continuing to flourish – ending their season with a tour to Wales last weekend – superb! Not forgetting the Derelicts (or should we call them the Galacticos) who have swept all before them. What really has been most pleasing to see for your authors is the quality of player (male and female) coming through the Youth Development Programme here at the club. We pride ourselves on home grown talent at Dorking; there is plenty of it coming through, bolstering the senior rugby ranks. We are in a very fortunate position as a club, down to the hard work of the members, players, volunteers and staff. We are so grateful to you all. Long may it continue!

The game today is even more special since stalwart James Catton is retiring after a remarkable DRFC career which began back in the 90s. There has been plenty written about his achievements circulating on club

social channels, but your authors felt it appropriate to delve into the archives, speaking to some of his peers and getting to the bottom of the other side of ‘Jimmy Reigate!’

‘I remember Catton coming through the ranks.

Full of it he was. Spikey straightened hair, a bright orange motor his old man bought him and a real penchant for women and VK tropicals. He also just bloody loved Liquid and Envy nightclub in Redhill after a post-match session at the club. He was never the same after it closed, it was like his mojo for nightlife went down with the place. What was my favourite memory of Catton? Well, he had this annexe at his Dad’s house which he called the Chopping Board. He’d get ladies back, then have them leave a review in a guest book before they left – loved that’.

James Penfold – Ex 3rd XV stalwart, club social wizard and occasional tweeter

Jimmy Catton’s pre night out ritual, straightening his hair in the old club gym before heading to Liquid!

BROUG�T TO YOU BY GEORGE EVANS AND SCOTTY RIC�ARDSON ‘What can I say? I mean back in those days I

was putting a shift in at 6. So, we had Catton at 2, with a couple of ogres either side of him in Chris O’Reilly and Jake Cooper-Woolley.

With his old man also picking the team, this gave Catton licence to do as he pleased on the pitch! This is I guess where his habit for red cards started – he was more than happy to start a scrap with those 2 beside him. He really did struggle on throwing the ball in the line-out ’til he was about 15 – getting a pair of Andy Goode style stick mitts for Christmas and a bit of coaching from yours truly seemed to do the trick! I’ll fondly remember Catton being called Poo Bum Pinky by his teammates. The pooey bum became justified after he came to visit me at Cardiff Uni years later…. but that’s a story for him to tell.’

chasing the bus down the slip road and only just get on it before it joins the motorway – what a wa*ker. I got him back though. He went to South Africa in 2009 with the boys. So, I took my chance and had his Mrs at the time away for myself! Well, as Jimmy always says himself – boys will be boys!’

Ross ‘Frenchy’ Grimstone – Ex Youth and 1st XV player

Harry ‘David’ Watts – Ex Club Captain and most reliable 1st XV player of all time

‘Look, Catton and I have always had a love hate relationship. In the early days he used to look up to me, I took him to Officers Club in Dorking to show him where I bought me jeans, we used to go out for beers with the lads, it was all good. But he changed as soon as he got his first 1st XV cap, let me tell you. I will never forget; we were on the bus on the way back from one of his first away games. He was giving it large, throwing his weight about, playing the big I am. But then he took it too far. We stopped at Bishop Stortford services on the way back from Hertford. We’d just nailed a Burger King and I went off for a piss, telling Catton to let the driver know I would be 2 minutes and not to leave. What does he do?

Tells the driver everyone was on. So, I am left

‘He’s a prick. Lol’ Nicky Brown – Ex DRFC Bar Manager

Jimmy – you have given so much to this club, both on and off the field. You deserve this send off. We are all hugely grateful and look forward to seeing you flourish in the Minis coaching set up with Barnaby.

Congrats to you and Katie on the birth of Florence and we hope to see you trot out for the occasional fixture in the future like any good front rower does if they are called upon.

We hope you have all enjoyed this season’s Cock Facts - we’ve loved writing them!
