All of the matches, especially the England ones, will be screened in the bars at Well Hall throughout the 6 Nations. If you are thinking that watching the Club means missing England play then fear not as the fixtures work well for us this year! The England v France match will follow on directly from […]
Club choke on the Tyne Even a struggling Blaydon side is a daunting prospect on their own patch of earth. On a damp, grey winter’s afternoon, Crow Trees can be a forbidding arena, with its wonderful old rugby grandstand rising into the murkiness next to the pitch over yonder from the more modern clubhouse, and […]
by Nick Sullivan An early start this weekend and hopefully the trains are sorted out following Tuesday’s derailment outside Lewisham because otherwise it will be an extra early start if you’re to make the 2pm kick off on Tyneside tomorrow. Blackheath travel the best part of a 600-mile round trip tomorrow as they venture North […]
Geoff Griffiths is set to make his 100th appearance in a Club jersey at Blaydon this weekend after a disciplinary hearing upheld his appeal against a red card last Saturday. The full-back (pictured right) was dismissed in the 66th minute of Blackheath’s narrow 31-29 win against Hull Ionians for striking the head of an opponent, […]

This has been a major operation as you can see already from the exceptional playing and changing room facilities plus the enhanced infrastructure gradually taking shape. The Club is clearly investing and wants to continue to invest […]
Club leave it late to sink Hull At Brantingham Park in October a last-ditch Leo Fielding penalty had snatched the win. Now, in the reverse fixture, the same player produced the neat inside ball on 77 minutes that found Jake Lloyd arriving at pace, the wing slicing through the cover to cross next to the […]
GG cleared to play and Ellis returns Tom Ellis makes a welcome return to the Blackheath squad tomorrow, as the Club prepare for the visit of Hull Ionians at Well Hall. The back-row suffered an arm injury during the summer which has kept him sidelined for the entire season to date, but has now recovered […]
Cov create carnage as Club lose composure Almost the reverse scoreline to the two clubs’ last meeting at Well Hall in September, the only small consolation for Blackheath being their net advantage of a single point across the two games. Ultimately, however, an afternoon the Club will not wish to dwell on. A physical, fractious […]
by Nick Sullivan Time to put the winter woollies on for the first away trip of 2017 as Blackheath make the 100-odd mile trip to Coventry (6th). Despite sitting in sixth place on 51 points (W10, D1, L6), just outside the chasing pack, Coventry have had an impressive season to date, with their Butts Park […]
