As this season of fits and starts is all over bar the shouting, Stats man Dave Tollitt has updated his list of Heritage Numbers which conveniently finishes at 700. To access and download the PDF, click on "information" then "documents". Pictured in September 2018 with Press Officer Ste Clark outside Widnes Library, Dave's mammoth achievement has set standards for others to follow. This, of course, is a theme that runs throughout Widnes RUFC and its squadron of volunteers, armed with a variety of skills and abilities.
