Saturday produced the mighty Gower’s first win 43-0
away to Aberavon Naval, our first in the WRU plus the extras for
scouring more than four tries and we are now sitting around mid table.
Penlan look to be the strong leaders however, second in the league
Llangadog only have 9 points (3 more than us) so the league is wide open
and a few more good results and we will be up the top end of the table.
The good stuff first, 7 tries and once we started to put a few points
on them in the second half we didn’t stop, linking between the
forwards and backs well in some nice play.
I thought the forwards in general played well Gouge carried the ball
and cleared out well around the fringes. Nice to see Tom Wills back, who
had an aggressive game on the back row and scored a couple of tries. The
backs in general played well with some clean breaks and Dill tackled and
dealt with any kicks back.
Their ground set up was a bit strange and we could have easily let that
affect the game, as we spent a lot of time hanging around waiting to get
changed. The first half was a bit scrappy, and at 10-0 at half time we
needed to step up a few gears in the second half, which happened.
Again at times the rucking was a bit soft, but later on that was
probably due to the fact that we lost our shape a little as we got a bit
try hungry and did not go through the phases. Its important to win good
ball and go through some phases in that situation even if it has become
semi opposed to practice for the bigger games to come.
In all well done, a good game, big win, but no rugby next weekend,
boooooo!
