Gnomed


Gnome Sweet Gnome


Paul Wood wasn't the only member of the Warrington Wolves who stripped off for two charity calendars in 2011 and 2013.  The images in the piece, with the garden theme, are from the 2013 edition.  The whole rugby team, who appeared in that years Challenge Cup final pitched in.  Some of the players included Wood, Chris Hill, Micky Higham, Tyrone McCarthy and Wood.

The team bared all, well, almost all, for the calendar to raise money and awareness for The Rett Syndrome Research Trust UK. This is the second time that many of the Wolves have stripped off to help and they seem to be getting more and more comfortable.  I tried to identify most of the players, but given it was 2013, many have changed their looks a little.

Some of my favorite shots were the images with the lucky garden gnome, who had the job of covering the wolves dangly bits.  Thankfully, the gnome wasn't big enough, or needed, to cover the many fine rears on display.
