THERE were emotional scenes at the Hay Street Rugby Fields on Saturday as players and supporters paid their respects to former club stalwart Warren Powell and former Redmen player Chris Jackson, who both sadly passed away recently.
You could not hear a pin drop as a minute’s silence was observed before a lone piper played a stirring rendition of Amazing Grace and the Lament.
As the ground announcer struggled for words, the crowd, including many players from the past, bowed their heads in silence remembering two absolute champion blokes who touched the hearts of so many people in the rugby community.
RIP Jacko and Wasa.
