Old Priorian Rugby Football Club team
OP SAINTS
Captain :
Alex Wightman
Single male seeking female companionship. I’m a very good looking young man who loves to take long walks, beat up ninjas, test the acidity of fox urine and cosy winter nights by the fire. Really like a woman with a pickup truck. A candlelight dinner prepared by none other than Mrs. Gleeson will have me wet with desire whilst she is wearing only what nature gave her. Rub me the right way and watch me respond. An outstanding flanker and taught Neil Back everything he knows.
Vice Captain :
William Clarke
i enjoy my rugby just left school play fly half full back mainly but can slot in most back positions.
Players
RASHEED ALAWIYE
' not as quick as I used to be ........'
Chris Allum
Play hooker/back row.
You'll never see a better sidestep in the front row. Apart from my brother, and matt champs, and maybe Keith Wood.
Predee Anuvatnujotikul
Ryan Ashlee
naturally a tighthead prop, but can play anywhere in the front row when called upon. Having played rugby at St.Benedict's followed by Captaining the Westminster 1st XV several times over the last eleven years is now keen to make his mark upon the op team.
Edward Barnes
I'm a utility back, all bar scrum-half! I play 1st team rugby at UCL and Captained my 1st XV school team. I live in London and am around most weekends.

John Campbell
Prop, winger
Martin Campbell
John Carino
Frank Casali
Matt Champness
Hugo Clarke
Utility Back-Row forward. Prefer 2nd row/No8...Often found hanging off rucks/malls trying to look as busy as poss. Otherwise found in the beer garden of Ealing's finest establishments.
Tomek Cole
Matthew Conlon-Perry
prop forward, born a tight head.
Edd Conway
Left Bennies in 2005. University of Bath graduate. Preferably 13. Can play 15, 12 and 10 if needed. Can kick at goal. General keeno for all things OP

mike dever
Michael Dolan
lock/ 8
Matthew Doyle
Matthew "Doyley" Doyle left St. Benedict's in 2004.
Rugby highlights included playing for the U11's when only 10, getting colours at U13 (which his mum then sewed onto his shirt!) and handing off Ed Conway in a 7's game.
Since leaving school, then university, then law college, Doyley continues to prove a burden upon his family and has refused to start work properly until 2011. In the meantime he is looking to expand his knowledge of Xbox and is plotting the downfall of his enemies within the club - (via the Dick of the Day jacket.)
James Duggan
1997 Old Boy. Following a prolonged & revitalizing period in the rugby wilderness / pie shop I felt the need to put down that pie & pick up the boots again. I would rather play back row - but unfortunately due to being genetically inflicted with extreme medium pace I will probably end up in the 2nd row.
Luke 'The Hitman' Engmann
Peter Enright
Danny Farren
Nicholas Farren
Left St. Benedicts in '99 played for Ealing for 5 years after univeristy, before having a season at imperial medics last season. Reforming the OPs with Colin Stokes after agreeing it very drunk on a stag do.... Unfit and pretty injury prone i feel a place in the club house is calling...
Stephen Finnegan
Getting old and fat and would quite fancy a couple of run outs in the back row somewhere
Sean Flynn
Alberto Furlan
1.75m by 71kg, played most of my rugby on the wing but can also slot in at 9 and 15 if need be. Found out about OPs through Ryan Ashlee
Billy Gaynor
Michael George
Saul Gerald
They created beer so props cant take over ther world
Still at Bennies, finish summer 2010.
James Gill
I am a 27yr old backrow / lock forward, I have played for a few sides now - Old Blues,Kings College Hospital, Nomads, Kilburn Cosmos, GWR so bit of a wanderer but living in Ealing now and looking to have a few more years of good rugby!
Huge fan of Dog the Bounty Hunter, german pornography and milk.
Love the social too and nothing I enjoy more than beering and touring / being arrested - should know better at my age but don't.
Joe Gleeson
Centre, Full back or fly half. Left in 04' after joining the senior school in 97'. They call me the bri man. Used to love pies but now only have eyes for Mrs. Hanke. She's the best part of my healthy new diet.
John Gleeson
Matt Gleeson
Fab Goualin
ridiculously cool
Robert Grant
Nicolas Hallisey
Adam Hanke
Left in 2004, played Back Row and Second Row for the Firsts until my now failed piano career took precedence. Most fond memories must be of the outstanding 2nd Row relationship of Hanke-Doyle where we dominated both on the pitch and on the keys. However, the brittle bones syndrome that I was diagnosed with meant only the latter aspect of this relationship was able to flourish. Fully recovered now, after loads of milk, the source of which you would have to ask Mrs. Gleeson, and ready to play as well as my steadily improving fitness will allow.
Phil Harvey
Very old prop!
Andrew Haston
hooker/ flanker
left in '09
love the big hits!!
David Haston
Robert Hawkins
- I originally come from northampronshire, where I played rugby for 6 seasons at Junior, Colts & Senior Rugby. I captained my side for the U16s season.
- I am a film student at the University of Westminster (1st year).
- My additonal hobbies/interests include: computers, Formula1, and ofcourse rugby.
SImon Hearn
Left Bennies in 2006 as a 2nd XV player. Utility player when fit, normally there to make up the numbers. Best attribute of my game is the boot, but as a forward its rarely used. Love getting stuck in the rear of a ruck, or putting my hands in places i shouldn't. Aspire to become the George Best of Rugby, spending my money on booze, birds and fast cars, and then wasting the rest.
Eugene Hickey
Preferably wing or full back, but has known to pop up in the centres from time to time. Doesn't mind filling in at second row either against pony oppostion.
Philip Hopley
Left in '84 and had a great crack playing OP rugby for a few years. Delighted to see the relaunch and hope to play while I still can.
Ben Horan
An impact player for 80 minutes, Horan is deservedly considered by many OP pundits to be the complete second-row package. Never happier than when dancing the Five-point-fandango over the opposition's line, or securing turnover against impossible odds, Horan can always be found in the thick of the action. Friends and opponents alike are wont to refer to the 6' 5" powerhouse as the "Second Row Sasquatch," the "Mauling Marauder," the "Lineout Leviathan," the "Priorians Punisher," or simply the "Master of Disaster". His legion of female admirers however are more likely to refer to the Ickenham based hard man as the "Line-out Love Machine" or the "Lascivious Lock". Known as much for his off-field antics as his devastating forward play, Ben can always be found at the heart of any changing room banter or shenanigans, and is renowned for his ability to quoff prodigious quantities of throat oil in local hostelries with the chaps on club socials. All-in-all this dashing cavalier of the game is definitely one to watch, and an OP through and through. - E.C.
