The engine room stays strong for 2026/27. Dorking is delighted to confirm the following forwards remain part of the senior squad, bringing experience, physicality and continuity to the pack as we build towards another National League campaign.

"Keeping this pack together gives us a real foundation to build from. There's experience and physicality all the way through, and I'm excited seeing this group kick on this season."

Armand Roux, Director of Rugby
