Thurrock RFC mark tribute to Jeff with a derby victory

By Neil Speight 28th Nov 2021

SUPPORTERS and players from Thurrock Rugby Club and their visitors and neighbours Brentwood paid tribute to club stalwart Jeff Selway at this afternoon's derby match at Oakfield.

Mr Selway, a legendary figure at the Thurrock club and a much-loved and admired teacher who numbers thousands of borough people among those he taught, died in the past week.

At today's match players and supporters held a minute's applause in tribute not just to his contribution to rugby, but to Thurrock as a whole.

And a hard-fought match ended with delight for the home side, who eked out a treasured 22-20 London One North victory against their derby rivals.
