🍾 250 NOT OUT! CONGRATULATIONS, JAKE GOULSON! 🍾Some players wear the Newport shirt. Others become part of its history. This weekend, club stalwart Jake Goulson reaches an incredible milestone as he makes his 250th 1st XV appearance for the club! 👏Week after week, season after season, Jake has been the beating heart in the engine room of the Newport scrum, doing the hard yards, putting his body on the line, and winning and stealing lineouts like it’s taking the washing off the line.The kind of player every team needs, every teammate appreciates, and every club is proud to call their own. Of course, there was that brief period at Bridgnorth… for… research… 👀 We won't dwell on that one! 😂Jake's loyalty, commitment and dedication to Newport over the years have been outstanding. From coming through the M&J ranks to reaching 250 1st XV appearances is a phenomenal achievement, reflecting not just his ability on the pitch, but the character, passion and camaraderie he brings to our club.This weekend's milestone puts Jake in some very special company in Newport's all-time 1st XV appearance rankings:🥇 Michael Woodhouse – 370 appearances🥈 Jack Wells – 256 appearances🥉 Jake Goulson – 250 appearances (and counting!)With Jack now retired (most of the time), Jake is on course to move into 2nd place in Newport's all-time 1st XV appearance list by the end of this season! 👀👏And who sits at the top of that list? None other than his good friend and mentor, Michael Woodhouse, with his incredible 370 1st XV appearances. There's something special about that connection. The friendship, the shared battles, the lessons passed down and the memories made along the way are what make rugby clubs like Newport so much more than just a team.A huge thank you to Beacon Corporation Limited, who have proudly sponsored Jake for several years, for their continued support of both Jake and our club. 🤝Jake, from everyone at Newport (Salop) RUFC, congratulations on an outstanding achievement. Thank you for everything you've given this club, for the battles you've fought, and for the countless times you've pulled on the maroon and white with pride.250 appearances. One club. Countless memories. And a place in the history books still to come. ❤️🤍Let's give Jake the recognition he deserves this weekend! 👏#OneClub #UpTheNewport #250NotOut #NewportSalopRUFC ...
