From left to right, their determined expressions reveal their unwavering focus as they face off against their opponents in East London. Each player brings his unique talents to the game: Gareth Edwards with his lightning-fast speed and strategic thinking; Stewart McKinney with his powerful presence on the field; Mike Burton with his relentless physicality; and Chris Ralston with his agility and precision.
