Wharfedale's centre pairing of Mark Bedworth and Chris Malherbe have been named in the National Two Team of the Year, published by Rugby Times.
As the team is selected on the basis of votes by the division's coaches, the impact the Greens' stars have made on informed rugby opinion during last season is clearly demonstrated. The full team is as follows: 15 Neil Hallett (Esher), 14 Ally Bressington (Stourbridge), 13 Chris Malherbe (Wharfedale), 12 Mark Bedworth (Wharfedale), 11 Matt Moore ( Esher ), 10 Gareth Cull (Nuneaton ), 9 Craig Aikman (Halifax). 1 Duncan Cormack (Esher), 2 Liam Wordley (Henley), 3 Wayne Reed (Launceston), 4 Tom Bason (Blackheath), 5 Rob Hurrell (Henley), 6 Josh Lord (Launceston), 7 Wayne Sprangle (Launceston), 8 Mark Bright (Redruth).
Only promoted Esher and Launceston, with 3 selections each, claim more positions.
