The disappearance of Dan Tolfrey and Richard Harms

From hockey that is, I don't think they went near the Bermuda triangle!

Dan Tolfrey was at Havant not so long ago but have no idea who he is playing for if at all. He got his first start against Cannock in the premier league when Chris Bristow got an arm injury in that season, before deputising again against Holcombe in a playoff game when Bristow was away at the GBSL (GB Super League). And when Bristow left for Surbiton, youngster Tolfrey took over between the sticks. I'm not sure what happened but assume uni life took over, as eventually Andrew Isaacs joined Havant and has made the starting jersey his own.


Richard Harms has an interesting story. He was at premier league club East Grinstead, but was playing at lower levels because of attitude or something as rumour has it, in spite of his talent and then ended up at Harletson Magpies as the Norfolk side were promoted into the national league and played there for a couple of seasons. He then moved to Holcombe in the confusion when David Kettle left the Kent side to go to East Grinstead, the opportunity to showcase his ability that arguably helped him secure his current place at Surbiton. Not sure what happened there but he left and I think he ended up at Lewes for a bit; Allan Dick is obviously their starter now. Harms is now living in Australia apparently, so not sure if he'll be back playing on British shores!
