BRING on the Heavy Woollen Donkeys ...
The Forgers, Sheffield's newest rugby league club, did just that and duly saw them off in style as they continued their impressive build up to the new season.

Despite conceding age, weight, and experience to their opponents, they powered their way to an emphatic 36-6 victory in snowy Dewsbury.

The Forgers, who have recently confirmed a sponsorship deal with Sheffield steel manufacturers Forgemasters, travel to Hull tomorrow in a tough opening Merit League fixture against East Riding.

They are on the look out for players, match day volunteers and supporters and anyone interested should visit the website www.sheffieldforgers.co.uk or email This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
