Absolutely gutted to hear about Steve's passing. Such a top bloke and one of the best Bashers to wear the baggy blue. Will look through the archives and post some more photos... Vale Poppy, you were a champion 🏆...
Let's make it all about me for a while, I'll never forget that possibly the best catch I ever held was off a typically blistering Poppy drive. I believe it was in the Poppy/Tiny Testimonial match. Nobody seemed to realize what had happened for a few seconds. The look on Poppy's face spoke volumes.

One of the best sledgers we ever had, won the Bart Simpson award in '14

Terrible news. Amazing competitor on the field, but always in the right spirit. Absolute stand up bloke.
Rest in peace Poppy. A Bashers through and through. Always good for a laugh on (with his biting sledging), and off (during fines). Gone too soon.
