A VIEW
FROM THE TOUCHLINE
I would like to wish you all a very warm welcome to The
Limestone Construction Field, Monks Sports Club this
afternoon for our game against Hunslet Warriors in the
National Conference League Division Two.
We welcome the players, supporters and committee of Hunslet to Woolston and hope
that they have had a safe journey across town and enjoy our hospitality today.
This week we lost and absolute club LEGEND with the sad passing of our Club President
Harry Crank. Harry was a stalwart of this club from its inception in 1959 and his
memory will live on forever. He has been a massive part of my life for over 50 years
and I know that my dad (Warren Whalley) and Harry were inseparable down at the
club; wherever you saw Harry then my dad wasn’t far away. A true friendship that could
not be bettered and he will leave a huge hole in my dad’s life. Elsewhere in the programme
there is a fitting tribute to Harry from our current Club Chairman Steve Moore
and I know that the words that he has spoken are echoed by everybody at Woolston.
God bless you Harry and thank you for everything. Harry’s passing is on the back of us
also losing club stalwart Derek Bailey, Stewart Jones and Brian Heesom recently. All of
their families and friends are in thoughts.
Following consultation with Harry’s family there will be a minute’s applause held at all
Woolston Rovers games this weekend as a mark of respect for our club legend. There
will of course be a fitting tribute and a lasting memory in Harry’s name announced in
the very near future.
Today’s game is our annual Sponsors Day and Past Players’ Reunion and we are
delighted to welcome our generous sponsors and many past players’ from each era
since we were formed and we hope that you all have an enjoyable afternoon with us.
The planned Race Night this evening has been postponed and will now take place on
Saturday 16th July following our home game with Bradford Dudley Hill.
The game against Hunslet promises to be an absolute cracker; we drew 19-19 at their
place in April and I am sure that today will be another closely fought game. Hopefully
from a Woolston perspective we can claim the two league points to keep us in touch
with the teams above us. It really is an exciting league this season.
You will see further in the programme the fixtures for our Junior teams who play tomorrow.
We have plenty of excellent players (and coaches) within our Junior ranks so if
you have a spare hour or two in the morning please try and get along and show them
your support, either here at Monks’/Hillock Lane or in one of the away games.
Thanks for your attendance today and we hope to see you again very soon. Why not
bring a friend along with you next time and introduce them to the Rovers!!!
Enjoy the game
Dave Whalley
Public Relations Officer
The National Conference League have announced that Irish Sportswear brand,
O’Neills, are to be their Sportswear Partner for 2022 and beyond.
This agreement will see O’Neills Irish International Sportswear provide touch-line
apparel for all 48 NCL clubs that will readily identify official team coaches, trainers,
physios, and substitutes. O’Neills will also provide a dozen water bottles for each club.
Speaking of the partnership, Paul Berry, O’Neills UK Sales Manager said, “When
Trevor and the committee asked us to consider working with the NCL, we jumped at
the chance. We identified an opportunity to help highlight official team touch line staff
through the provision of coloured t-shirts, in a similar way to that in Super League and
International Fixtures. It was felt it would help referees and match officials to better
manage the touchlines and we were happy to oblige.”
“The community game is the heartbeat of the sport and we have been fortunate
enough to have been able to do business with a number of the NCL clubs over the past
few years which has allowed us to build up a strong portfolio of customers within the
Rugby League sector.
You now see O’Neills kit at every level of Rugby League from grassroots Under 7s
teams right through to some of the top teams within Super League and the NRL.”
“Last year it was great to see St Helens being crowned Super League Champions
wearing our kit and for Penrith Panthers being crowned NRL Champions - also in
O’Neills kit, just ten years after we entered the UK market.”
“O’Neill’s Sportswear are proud to be known as the brand leader globally within Rugby
League and we certainly felt that we wanted to put something back into rugby league at
community level to support the clubs, their volunteers and their players.”
Chair of the NCL, Trevor Hunt, added “It is fantastic that a company of the standing of
O’Neills, is partnering the National Conference League, and we are delighted to have
them on board. Every one of the NCL clubs will benefit from this, and it will certainly
add yet another high-quality element to the presentation of our competition.”
CLUB PRESIDENT HARRY CRANK BEM
REST IN PEACE
As Chairman of Woolston Rovers Rugby League Club it saddens me greatly to hear of
the passing on Wednesday morning of our club President, Harry Crank.
I want to start by offering mine and the clubs deepest and
most sincere condolences to his family and friends.
Harry has been involved with the club since it’s inception
in 1959 in one capacity or another. He has been a
constant figure around the place who was always willing
to help the club he loved in any way he could. He played
in the early years, he coached, he has been President,
but he also fundraised, donated money himself, he was
at every work party that was ever organised as well as
plenty of occasions when he went down to the club on
his own, or with his good friend Warren Whalley to carry
out pitch and clubhouse maintenance.
Harry did all of this whilst at the same time, fundraising
for the Warrington and Birchwood Lions and
raising a loving and caring family, and latterly
caring for his ill wife, Joan.
I have been involved with Woolston for
around 15 years and in that time I got to
know and love Harry, as did everyone
that came through the club. I was
honoured to receive the President’s
award from him and just as honoured
and proud to present him and Warren
with the Clubman of the Year Award
a couple of years ago.
The word legend is banded about
far too easily but to myself and
everyone involved with the club,
the word was made for Harry Crank.
Rest in peace H, you will never be
forgotten at our club. You will forever
be the Grandfather of the Green and
Gold family x

Woolston Rovers went down to a local ‘derby’ defeat to Crosfields in the National Conference
League Division Two in front of a very large crowd at the Limestone Construction Field, Monks
Sports Club.
Soap got off to the prefect start when they opened the scoring in the second minute; they ran the
ball on the last tackle and full back Jamie Abram jinked through the defence and passed to centre
Kane Ditchfield who scored on the left and then seven minutes later a smart pass from scrum half
Joe Barnes found prop forward Tom Millington who crashed over on the left. Stand off Jack Lewis

to score on the left. Lewis converted and then Rovers had full back Morgan Williams sin binned
for a professional foul and from the resulting penalty a long ball out wide found winger Jack Fox

Rovers were then temporarily down to eleven men when substitute Josh Sudlow was yellow carded
for hitting out and another long pass out wide found Fox in space to score in the right corner
but then when Rovers were back to their full complement they got themselves on the scoreboard
when a lovely offload from Sudlow found loose forward Ryan Brown who put centre Dan Fearnley
through a gap to score wide out on the right and make the interval score 24-4 to Crosfields who
ended the half with twelve men following the sin binning of substitute Tom Brown for a late hit.
Five minutes into the second half rovers went over once again when a nice offload from hooker
Adam Files found pro forward Harry Files and he turned Abram inside and out before scoring
under the posts. Williams converted but four minutes later Crosfields regained the momentum as

of the season with an impressive win at Bradford Dudley Hill in the National Conference League
Division Two at the Neil Hunt Memorial Ground, Bradford.

who shot through a gap to score on the right but then just after the midway point of the half quick
hands on the last tackle from Crosfields saw second row Alex Clutterbuck find centre Tom Smith

Crosfields moved further ahead when a high kick on the last tackle from Stanway was fumbled
by Rovers and Clutterbuck was on hand to pick up the loose ball and score on the right. Stanway

tackle and Kohe-Love went over wide out on the left to give his side a commanding 22-4 half time
advantage.
Rovers came out a different team in the second half and they were rewarded ten minutes into it

score at the right of the posts with three men on him. Loose forward Craig Lawton converted but
then four minutes later Soap replied when Boyne linked into the line to create space for him to
break through the defence to score on the left.
With eight minutes remaining Rovers gave themselves a glimmer of hope when a repeat set on
the Crosfields line paid off as stand off Dec Leonard found Davies sweeping round the back to
score his hat trick try on the left but then with the final play of the game a kick to the corner on
the last tackle by Stanway was collected by Smith who scored under the posts. Substitute Craig

tackling to score on the left. He added the conversion to put his side ahead for the first time at

Rovers refused to panic and they started to build up some momentum and that paid off when a
fine solo run by full back Morgan Williams saw him score in the right corner to put his side back in
front and shortly afterwards St Judes had Yates yellow carded for dissent and with three minutes
