Edgar Roberts Mobbs DSO (1882 - 1917) was an English rugby union footballer who played for and captained Northampton R.F.C. and England. He played as a three quarter.

After initially being turned down as too old to join the army in World War 1, Edgar raised his own "sportsmans" battalion of 250 sportsmen (also known as Mobbs' Own) for the Northamptonshire Regiment. He rose to command his battalion with rank of Lt. Col.

Edgar was killed in battle, in July 1917, at Zillebeke during the Third Battle of Ypres, whilst attacking a machine gun post. His body has never been found, so his name is on the Menin Gate memorial.

In 1921 the first Mobb's Memorial Match was held between the East Midlands and the Barbarians at Franklin's Gardens and has continued ever since.

The Barbarians move on to Bedford for the 84th Mobbs Memorial Match on Tuesday 19 April (kick-off 7.45pm).

Nick Mallett will again be in charge of the 22-man squad which is almost all-change from the victory over Richmond.

Only three players - wing Charlie Ingall, prop Richard Barrington and back-rower Ben Maidment - continue in the squad for a second-time.
Among the new faces are three players who impressed for Richmond against the Barbarians - wing Jonan Boto, fly-half Ross Broadfoot and club skipper Tom George - while the Welsh clubs are well-represented with a total of six, including five new Barbarians, from Neath, Llanelli and Cardiff.

The Barbarians have also recognised players who have represented the Combined Services in recent Remembrance Matches with invitations to Dave Pascoe and Greg Barden of the Royal Navy.

Barbarians Squad:
Backs - James Loxton (Cardiff Blues), David Doherty (Jersey), Jonan Boto (Richmond), Ayoola Erinle (England), Tommy Bell (Sale Sharks), Charlie Ingall (Tynedale & Newcastle Falcons), Gareth McCarthy (Neath), Ross Broadfoot (Richmond), Dave Pascoe (Royal Navy), Kieran Campbell (Dungannon & Ireland)
Forwards - Neil Fowkes (Nottingham), Richard Barrington (Hartpury College), Ross Davies (Neath), Craig Hawkins (Llanelli), Chris Ritchie (Rosslyn Park), Euros Evans (Neath), Adam Powell (Llanelli), Tom Bason (Blackheath), Tom George (Richmond), Ben Maidment (Cambridge University & Moseley), Greg Barden (Royal Navy), Stan McKeen (Oxford University & Canada)
