RYGBI GOGLEDD
CYMRU
This was then converted by Nicky Thomas to go 3-19 ahead. Then
Kelvin Davies fought his way over the white line for the first RGC
try, converted in the hurricane like wind by Rhodri Carlton Jones
to bring the scores to 10-19.
On the stroke of half time, Mark Bennett Jones scored the
detrimental, bonus winning fourth try, converted by Nicky
Thomas, who was on top of his game, to give an impressive 1026 intermission lead.
If the crowd thought this scoring spree would continue in to the
second half they were severely mistaken as a period of untidy play
occurred before full back, Afon Bagshaw, gave the home crowd
hope of a comeback with yet another try, converted by Rhodri
Carlton Jones to make it 17-26 after 58 minutes of play. Thomas
then converted another try, after 65 minutes, to make the score a
17-33 lead to Swansea.
Thomas secures some more penalties to extend their lead to 1739, but spoilt his streak by finding himself in the cooler for the
remaining ten minutes.
The game fizzled out in the final few minutes and the referee
brought action to an end on what was a pretty impressive
performance by the visitors with a final score of 17-39. Despite
the loss, RGC supporters remained supportive as they chanted on
“RGC RGC” amongst the sound of ‘Calon Lan.’
Despite coming up a little short in this game, RGC can still be
pleased with the start that they’ve made to the season and will
be confident of pushing on up the table over the coming months.
