Alex Mead
Editor
Ah the big boss man, all hail Mr Mead. And also the author of these biogs! Obviously far better looking than this green line drawing lets on and also clearly the finest rugby writer the world has ever seen. Probably. On a serious note, a journalist and editor for more than ten years and a regular with many much-loved titles including Rugby World and Rugby Times. A spectacularly average player and also chooses to impart his rugby wisdom upon a women’s team in London.

Leigh Hathaway
Webmaster
Clearly the best job title in the world, Hath is the Obi Wan Kenobi of rucked.com as he makes things move and happen without anybody else knowing how he does it. A rugby widow of sorts in that his Ozzie girlfriend is actually the rugby player of his Cardiff household. When not pushing words and pictures around on rucked.com, Hath likes practising his seven forms of Mongolian Throat Singing. Email him at hath@rucked.com

Steve McGrath
Writer
An English-born Welshman with a Scottish name, Steve is the confused member of the team and also the oldest by roughly 30 years. Claims to have played rugby once upon a time – apparently with some fella called William Webb Ellis or something…
Stephen Irish

Our main snapper, Irish is Welsh to the core and when not attempting to use his ‘shoe-cam’ on unsuspecting ladies, he even raises his lens to the rugby pitch to capture those special moments.
