We are pleased to announce that stalwart second rower Rob Jacobs has been admitted to New York Medical College (Valhalla, NY). Congratulations!

 Despite fierce competition this season, Rob held his starting position for not less than 15 matches in 2008 and scored 20 points from four tries. As you can see in the picture below, he has to use a strap-on cap to contain that melon !

 Rob is still waiting to hear from the admissions committees at UW and MCW, so we may still have a chance to keep him on the squad for 2009.

 Good on ya mate, and best of luck with your studies. Don’t forget, soon-to-be doctors buy the beer at all team meetings (hint hint) :)
