Caldy have been the standard bearers for Wirral rugby on the national stage for the past 20 years. So, it is a genuine delight to welcome our Ravers friends to Malone Field for what will be a superb test for The Saints in the '24-'25 pre-season phase of our 2nd year in Regional 1 North West.

A number of new Anselmians have arrived for the coming season and are named in the side for tonight. So, a huge welcome to John Whittingham, Oscar Crowe, Olly Dodd, Nick Baldwin, Theo Chapman and Armani Roberts. Great to see the return, alongside many familiar faces, of Alex White and Kostja from injuries that blighted last season for them. Applause too for Matty Bowden, our talented Cheshire Colt of last season, for his call up to the team. Will Grabe leads the boys out on a very special pre-season evening.

Please get along, make some noise and lend your support to our Annies lads. You'll regret it if you miss out on this one!

Come on Annies!
