RUGBY UNION: There's snow stopping us!

4:37pm Wednesday 11th February 2009 in Sport By Ed Mezzetti

Snow was no barrier to a Gosford All Blacks XV taking the field at Stratfield Brake on Saturday – as this picture shows.

Gosford lost 21-10 to touring side Flameheads on a day when most rugby players were wrapped up warmly indoors.

I can only presume both teams had no trouble seeing the ball on the white surface!

Gosford’s first team saw their BB&O Premier Division fixture at Swindon College postponed, so were unable to build on their 100 per cent record in 2009.
