• Dulwich College have produced a fair few Rugby internationals. I think they had three England players in one squad at one point.

    I used to work for Old Alleynians, as a coach. Not for Rugby though.

    Alleyns School has impressive facilities too, although not quite on the same scale.

  • Aye, Nick Easter, Andrew Sheridan and David Flatman were regularly down giving coaching sessions or speaking at the excruciating annual dinners.

    We would also have semi-regular matches against the leaving 1st XV team at our club. Every year they'd trash our clubhouse, because they could. I'm sure there are some well rounded alumni, but there is a lot of toxic masculinity and entitlement coming out of that place. They are actively taught they are better than everyone else, and it shows.

    Couldn't agree more. Some of my dearest friends are DC alumni. None of them are sending their kids there, or to any private school for that matter. Simply because they know what it's like.

    Apparently it has fallen a long way in terms of academic results and entry requirements in the last 25 years or so, no idea how true that is.
