WRU National League Division 2 West

TYCROES 23 ATHLETIC 19

If ever there was a case of the one that got away - it was today! Athletic started really brightly and set a high tempo which was pleasing to the eye. Opportunities presented themselves on numerous occasions with four clear try scoring chances inexplicably spurned by the Red & Blacks. The home side defended with gusto and were rewarded with two tries to somehow lead 17-9 at the interval.

The second half saw the visitors claw back to within a single point of their hosts at 20-19, thanks to a try by No. 8 Lee Bradley. But all their good work was to be in vain as a lack of discipline in the final ten minutes saw two Athletic players yellow carded. With their ranks reduced to thirteen, Tycroes duly clinched the points with a final penalty goal.

ATHLETIC DRUIDS 12 NECASTLE EMLYN 2nds. 16

The Druids welcomed table toppers Emlyn to Athletic Park in their opening league match of the season. The match proved to be highly competitive between two sides that contained a blend of young & veteran players.

Two tries apiece, with the winning try for the visitors scored in the last five minutes, settled this entertaining and keenly contested match.
