Williams lands try double as Bedwas go second
Championship & Div 1 round-up
BEDWAS moved up to second in the Championship after a comprehensive 38-13 away victory over lowly Tata Steel.
This was the only fixture played in the Championship yesterday after six games were called off due to a combination of bad weather and Covid. But Bedwas put on a good show scoring five tries courtesy of Matthew Williams (twice), Dion McIntosh, Aaron Billingham, and Matty Bancroft.
The try of the match fell to Williams who beat three defenders before running in unopposed from 40 metres.
Willis Wood scored all of Tata Steel's points including two tries, with the hosts still winless this season, and sitting one from bottom of the Championship table with a mere point to their name.
There was also a large number of games postponed in Division One for the same reasons, with the majority of fixtures taking place in north Wales.
The standout result in Division One North was Bala's 32-0 thrashing of Dolgellau. COBRA remain at the top of the table despite being held to a 17-17 draw at Llangefni. Pwllheli were also mightily impressive as they thrashed Bro Ffestiniog 53-6. Elsewhere, Bethesda claimed a narrow 11-10 win over Ruthin in a game played in poor conditions.
All six games were postponed in Division One East, but there was one match on in East Central as Rumney solidified their position at the top of the table with a hard-fought 13-7 away win over Rhiwbina.
In Division One West Central Bonymaen moved to first place with a hard fought 25-15 away at Tondu, while Ammanford beat Glynneath 20-13 in an entertaining game at the Recreation Ground.
Skewen were the big winners in West Central as they comprehensively beat Nantyfyllon 36-5 with tries from Will Pope, Richard Davies, Tom Kingdom, and Lee Dunsford.
