Stephen and Ben Underwood have yet again missed out on selection due the exceptional circumstances encountered this week (Robsy and Gareth essentially playing their joker!)

One of the principles of selection is to try and give ad hoc players the opportunity to play in games that hold special meaning for them and this is the sole reason for this weeks decisions.

With this in mind the selectors want to assure Stephen and Ben that they will be offerred the next two ad hoc places available in the team and will be given escalated priority for the following fixture also. ALL OTHER AD HOCS ARE ASKED TO TAKE NOTE OF THIS AS THIS MAY AFFECT YOU.

We hope that you both understand the reasoning behind this decision and if you give us the opportunity we will ensure that your patience and net attandace stats are duly rewarded.
