*Otley thought they were good and weren’t getting nowhere against us infact we kept shouting to them “you’ll have to do better than that lads” so just before the next scrum Woody our 2nd row said “right lads I want you all to snore when we strike the next ball”
So sure enough all 8 of us were snoring
