THEY are the Beasties of Rotterdam who are sharing their experience to inspire rugby players in Holland.

Eastern Suburbs first graders Will Maddocks, Sam Fogarty and Will Paterson are the rugby globetrotters from Woollahra playing with the Rotterdam club in Holland.

And State of Origin star Angus Crichton made a massive impact the night he trained with the team. More on that later.

Maddocks has been with Rotterdam since 2022, and after some initial reservations about making the big switch, quickly settled into the new surroundings.

The Australian Sevens representative has been back home to attend the wedding of his brother, Jack, the former Wallabies back who is now playing in France.
