It was a summer of change as Ealing 1871, most notably at the coaching level where Phil 'Smudger' Smith came in as head coach.

He has an impressive background in rugby, and he will pass on his experience as we chase another memorable season.

We get to know Smudger, learn about his playing days, his transition to coaching, his hopes for 1871, and what it is like to have World Cup winner, Neil Back gunning for you.
