Backs |
||
| Jack Arnott Wing |
Confirmed Departure | Signed for Taunton after two seasons with Albion |
| Jon Dawe Centre |
Confirmed Re-signing | A fourth term at Albion is in store for Jon having switched from the wing to centre. Last season saw him sidelined for 3 months with a hamstring injury before coming back into the side at centre which he found mre comfortable. Jon Re-signs |
| Alex Drucker Wing |
New Signing | Sought after player who chalked up 40 tries for Camborne in the last campaign. Has been at a number of clubs in the region, but hopefully will be able to find a home at Albion. Alex Drucker Signs Alex breaks Camborne's try scoring record |
| Connor Eastgate Centre |
Confirmed Re-signing | Signs on for a second season, the former U20 had deputised as Fly Half for much of the season and chalked up 5 tries in the process. Connor re-signs |
| Sam Fellows Centre/Wing |
Loan? | Loaned from Newton Abbot? - Just one appearance during the last season. |
| Jordan Gott Wing |
Unconfirmed Depature | Has now had two seasons at Albion having signed from St Ives in the 17/18 season - has he joined the Navy? Missing from Albion Site. |
| Fraser Honey Fly Half |
Confirmed Departure | Signed for Redruth after a single season with Albion |
| Pete Ingoldsby Hooker |
New Signing | Promoted from Albion's fledgeling academy, Pete has previously been part of Exeter's academy. Last season he made a handful of appearances for Brixham and spent a couple of seasons at Exmouth. He has earned international honours with Canada U20's. Could be called upon to play as Flanker. Academy successes |
| Frank Kelly Wing |
Loan? | Loaned from Old Luctonians? Two tries in six appearances. |
| James Love Wing |
Unconfirmed Depature | Returned to Albion at the end of last season - unannounced by the club. No certainty that he will be back next season and in what capacity. Missing from Albion site. |
| Teegan Minkley Wing |
Unconfirmed Depature | The Australian's first season at Albion saw him featuring in only 6 games at the start, scoring one try. Missing from Albion site. |
| Dan Mugford Fly Half |
Confirmed Re-signing | Somewhat unfortunate in being sidelined by injuries during the last 2 seasons, Dan is an influential player when on the pitch. A crowd favourite and welcome re-signing for a third season in the current stint. Deserves a decent run of games. Muggy Re-signs |
| Javiah Pohe Centre |
New Signing | Formerly of the Leicester Tigers Academy set up The 25 year-old New Zealander has featured regularly for South Leicester over the last couple of seasons following a spell at Carcassonne in the Pro D2 league. Javiah was top try scorer for a SL side that struggled during the season and were ultimately relegated from the National Leagues. |
| Dan Powell Full Back |
Confirmed Re-signing | Originally signing for Albion for the 16/17 season from Exmouth, Dan went to NZ for the following season, returning for the last campaign. Sheppy's form kept him on the bench so he only made 6 starts. Will next season be a different story? Probably. Dan Powell re-signs |
| Setareki Raumakita Centre |
Confirmed Re-signing | Signed for a fith season at Albion, the seasoned fijian only played a third of the last campaign having picked up an injury in preseason and losing out to Jon Dawe during the run-in. Naval comitments will take him away on occasions but will always make an impact when on the pitch. Seta Re-signs |
| Cameron Setter Scrum Half |
Confirmed Re-signing | At 25 a veteran of five seasons with the club and also featured for Albion in the '13/14 season. Did pick up his first two yellow cards last season. New Contact for Cam |
| Matt Shepherd Full Back |
Confirmed Departure | Signed for Redruth as Player/Coach after 4 seasons with Albion. |
| Josh Skelcey Wing |
Confirmed Re-signing | Have joined Albion last season from Nottingham, Josh had previously been at Moseley whilst dual registered from Northampton. A somewhat risky signing due to pre-season injury, which kept him off the pitch for half the season, he recovered to become a significant player for the remainder, scoring 5 tries in the process. In the meantime he has been successfully coaching the Marjons and Albion's U18 sides. Surely signed on for more than one year? First to re-sign |
| Joe Snow Scrum Half |
Last Season DR | |
| Dean Squire Centre |
Anticipated Re-Signing | Next season will be Deano's fourth, having missed just one game during the season. In the process he bagged eight tries - second only to Jamie Salter. |
| James Tait Scrum Half |
Confirmed Departure | Appearing in 10 games, the 19 year old only scored one try. Taunton twitter feed has announced his signing. |
| Seb Tooke Prop |
New Signing | Another product of Albions's Academy whilst also playing for Kingsbridge, Seb has represented English Counties U18's touring Ireland. Academy successes |
| Robbie Weeks Centre |
Unconfirmed Re-Signing | After a bright debut at the end of the previous season, Robbie only featuted 3 times in 18/19. However, the 19 year old has plenty of opportunity to improve. Can be seen in the recent Albion in training videos and listed on Albion site. |
Forwards |
||
| Luke Chapman Prop |
Unconfirmed Re-Signing | It has now had two seasons since Luke returned from the Pirates. Regularly starting or coming on as a sub injury curtailed his 18/19 season to 12 games. Still listed on Albion Site. |
| Dan Collier Lock |
Confirmed Re-signing | Staying on for a fith consecutive season, at 34 Dan brings a wealth of experience to the pack. Dan Collier re-signs |
| Ashley Crouch Prop |
New Signing | New Signing, but made a smattering of appearances as a loanee from Barnstaple. Will have challenge in knocking Luke & Will out of the first choice for Loosehead Prop Ashley Crouch earns contract |
| Sam Daly Flanker |
Confirmed Re-signing | Sam will be starting his third season for Albion in September. Having impressed in his first season, the curse of the 200 club and a loan spell at Taunton keeping him out of the side for much of the season. No doubt he will be looking for a strong season to cement his place in the squad. Sam Daly re-signs |
| Paul Davis Hooker |
Loan | Signed for Ealing Trailfinders for the 19/20 season. Loaned from Exeter to give him game time, Paul accrued 15 game appearances, bagging 8 tries in the process. Gained the ignomy of receiving Albion's sole red card.. |
| Flynn Elworthy Flanker |
Last Season DR | The 19 year old played in 10 games throughout last season. - will he return on a DR basis for next season. |
| John Kelly Prop |
Unconfirmed Re-Signing | Two seasons under his belt having moved from Exmouth. Struggled to get a look in at the start of last season but began to make regular appearances towards the end. Still listed on the Albion site |
| James Kenny Prop |
Last Season DR | |
| Sean Lonsdale Lock |
Last Season DR | Has broken into the 1st team at Exeter |
| Davy McGregor Hooker |
Unconfirmed Re-Signing | Returned to Albion last season and turned out 20 times, mostly as a replacement, scoring 3 tries. Still listed on the Albion Site. |
| George Mills Flanker |
Confirmed Re-signing | George signs on for a fourth term at Albion. An impressive 25 starts last season gave hime the opportunity to score 6 tries. Another experienced head amonsgt the forwards. George re-signs |
| Will Norton Prop |
Last Season DR | |
| Lewis Pearson Lock |
Unconfirmed Re-Signing | Now had two seasons at Albion, the 19 year old was a regular in the side during the last campaign. Still listed on the Albion site. |
| Dan Pullinger Prop |
Contracted | Five seasons with Albion, a regular over the last 3 seasons in the No 3 shirt. Pully is a stalwart of the club. Contracted upto 2020 |
| Chris Robinson Prop |
Loan | Borrowed from the Navy to provide cover for Dan Pullinger Chris featured in 2 games. Perhaps we will see him again. |
| James Salter Hooker |
Confirmed Re-signing | Continues for a fourth season at Albion. The seasoned Hooker had a good season last time out scoring 9 tries in the process - top man! Another season for Salter |
| Marcus Street Prop |
Last Season DR | Started last season at Albion, but made it into the Chiefs gameday squad with 6 Premiership substitute appearances. |
| Herbie Stupple No 8 |
Contracted | Next season will be Herbie's 9th since joining Albion as a DR player from Exeter. Didn't quite dominate as much as in previous seasons, but missed only one game - scoring seven tries. Contracted to 2020. |
| Dan Swain Lock/Flanker |
Confirmed Re-signing | Signs on for a third season at Albion, minor injuries have kept from long spells as first-choice starter. His versatilty in the scrum is an added bonus. An injury free season would increase his stock no end. |
| Rusi Tuima Flanker/No 8 |
Last Season DR | Outstanding new prospect performed well with England U20s. Unlikely to remain at Albion although still listed on the Albion site. If not promoted rapidly to the Chiefs squad then would be no surprise if he is sent to Penance. |
| Keiran Westlake Lock |
Unconfirmed Re-Signing | Signed from Camborne last season, Kieran appeared regularly at the start of the season often off the bench. Still listed on the Albion site. |
Staff |
||
| Ben Gulliver Coach |
Appointment | Gully returns to Albion taking over the top job from Kieran. Played for Albion at Lock in 06/07 & 07/08 before moving on to Pirates and others. Albion will be be his first club at the helm so must be considered a brave appointment by the club. Albion Appoint Ben Gulliver |
| Keiran Hallett Coach |
Confirmed Departure | The surprise departure, having maintained Albion's position within the top five league positions during his tenure. Squad injuries forced him back on the pitch on a couple of occasions, indicative perhaps of the club focusing on the stabilisation behind the scenes rather than overstretching the player budget. Albion acknowledge Keiran's Achievements |

Seems to have gone quiet on the signings front.this is a big loss to the club. Others in the league seem to be making big signings. Think the coming season is going to be a struggle
My belief is
1 Sheppey is a major loss - but good luck to him in his new role
2 Honey less so (but still good luck)
3 We need some new players as well as those who stay
Without confirmation on who will be the new coach, attracting new players will be difficult. Is this a Plymouth theme for 2019?

Not a good sign of Albion's intentions that they could not hold on to Matt S. at least for next season but MANY THANKS to him for his commitment to the club over the past seasons. I'm a little worried now but hopefully there's good news ahead about some strong signings. Still no news of a Head Coach???
05/06/2019 23:15
There is something fundamentally wrong at Albion.
We are losing players,no coach mentioned,makes you wonder what next...maybe someone will make a offer for the ground and Venables makes more money!!!

Bad news about Shep's and Fraser !eaving, we could do with some good news now.
06/06/2019 12:36
hearing from honey personally at the Devon game , this poor lad hadn’t been treated well at all off the pitch which majorly affected his performances , I believe if they invested more time in him we would have seen the best of him like Cornwall have this year
06/06/2019 19:52
Players leaving do so at with their reasons. Some will give their reasons ,sometimes not always on the level. Easier to find a reason that suits themselves. Just saying 😀
Believe one of then Cornish clubs is also after Alex Ducker so until it’s announced I wouldn’t count your chickens
Dazman... I wasn’t counting... I did say rumour. I don’t think we are big enough attraction tbh. He is going places lol. If we do, that’s a big signing!
Two lads - Pete Ingoldsby & Seb Tooke - make the step up from the Academy
My body is a temple - I desecrate it every day

It's all gone a bit quiet. Time for some speculation:-
Max Keen from Exmouth?

Saw Alex play for Cornwall versus Devon at Brixham. He certainly has a turn of speed and is threatening with the ball in hand. Here's hoping that he can provide headaches for our Nat 1 opponents!
Great news with recent signings - including the most recent - Pohe :-)
Now for a few more All Blacks!

Has anyone got an up to date list of the squad for the upcoming season? It would be helpful to have one which is regularly updated on the Albion website.

As promised - glammed up the list at the top of the page.
Will work through Albion Fan's post.
Having spent all day on it, my immediate conclusion is that we need a kicker.

Great work Igwok! I appreciate the time that you have spent on this. Hopefully, soon, the club will be in a position to give us an official squad list.

Paul Davis has left Exeter for Ealing Trailfinders. Good news aboutb Steeno doing some coaching for you though.
Big Bob Chiefs, can you give any more detail on Steeno and his coaching at Albion? This is the first I've heard of it. Cheers.

Try checking out the Albion website !
Albifun, I check the website out daily. Obviously the announcements of the coaches from Exeter were added after my morning check yesterday. I just thought that Big Bob might have had an inside line from somewhere. Anyway, two very good appointments on the coaching side from the Chiefs. An interesting coaching team being assembled.
Albifun,
Your eyesight is clearly better than mine. Who am I missing (or js it too obvious)?

Example "I am reliably informed that Mr Harrison was having a lend of us all when he announced that he was going to play it safe against Andy Murray."
I look forward to an announcement on Monday

Sure I read he has signed for Brixham, unless he is just training with Albion.
According to the Brixham website Tom Putt has joined them.
[www.brixhamrfc.co.uk]
Also, they have announced a raft of new players, including a James Love ... apparently
[www.brixhamrfc.co.uk]
Edit - I think Love is doing a coaching role at Brixham at the same time.

That article from 2017 about putty. In that training photo, hopefully he has signed.
Excellent news.
Feeling pretty optimistic about the upcoming season at the moment.

Tom Putt been doing the rounds, us,Darlington, Brixham now back to Albion. A few moves for a young player, just saying 🤔
25/07/2019 19:23
Good signing, backline looks strong! However the back 5 looks a bit thin with only Collier, Swain, Kelly, Mills, Daly and Herbie signed so far
Nice to see Tom back, if he remains injury free I think he will be a great asset
Jack Higgins has joined the squad (according to the offy site).
Jack is a prop who has spent the last decade in NZ and knows Ben from his Coventry days.

Croatian National Felip Perica has signed for Albion.
[www.plymouthalbion.com]
Filip has previously played at Taunton and Newton Abbot
The Croatian rugby team is currently ranked 46th in the world by World Rugby.
Filip has apparently played for the Croatian rugby team, their seven and their beach rugby team this year. The Newton Abbot website shows him as an inside centre.
I presume he will feature in the game against Taunton

Thought the club said a handful of exciting signings. Hope Filip does well, good luck and welcome to the club
The club seems to be very slow in announcing new signings. Is this always the way?
Certainly they have taken their time announcing new players this pre-season.
The team for the Taunton match has been announced - see Offy twitter page.
A few names that I didn't recognise are on the bench
Olly Mulbury - is this Olly Mulberry who used to play for Saltash?
Troy Gobey - perhaps the Navy and Argaum player
These may be on trial rather than new signings
It is also interesting that Felip Perica and Alex Ducker are not shown on the team list.
As it is a friendly, perhaps there will be a few surprises on the day.

Young squad for tomorrow, not a bad side. Squire on the wing , played most positions last season did well. Must be injury to Ducker ??
Squad up for the Exe Uni game on Sunday:
@AlbionRFC Twitter
Some of the missing names from this thread - plus a few new ones as well(?).
Seem to remember from last year that this was actually a bit of a game. Pretty sure we won, but couldn't tell you the score. Didn't do us any favours on the injury front, I seem to recall. Plenty of Chiefs Academy boys up for putting one over their mates in Albi shirts. Approach with caution, lads...
NB: Check PARFC website for prices on the gate.
Come cheer up, my lads - 'tis to glory we steer!

Yes, Scott Makepeace being one of the new names.
Royal Navy rugby union captain, he has also played for Nuneaton.

Albion have just announced that Scott Makepeace has joined the squad
[www.plymouthalbion.com]
It appears that he will continue to play for the Navy midweek.
Glutton for punishment ..... or a case of playing is better than training.
Welcome Scott!
Also announced as a "new" signing is Devon Jewsbury.
[www.plymouthalbion.com]
As I read this report Devon has been sidelined for a lengthy period since damaging his ACL whilst playing for Albion well over a year ago. It seems he has still been spending time at Albion whilst he has been recovering. It doesn't say that he is a DR player, but he did have that history with the Exeter Academy.
Welcome back Devon

The club have released a named picture of the 2019/20 squad
[www.plymouthalbion.com]
Names that were new to me were Pierre Thompson, Sam Morley and Max Norey. I think players of those names were in the Exeter squad or academy. DR's ??
Absences (from the picture) include Dan Powell, Sam Tooke, Jamie Salter and Koree Britton - but all appear on the linked "individual players" page. So does John Snow, but in an old top.

Anyone know what has happened to Felip Perica? His signing was announced on the 14th August, but as far as I know he hasn't appeared in any matchday squad.
