Maesteg get off to flying start


Maesteg, who could only manage one victory all last season in Division Two West, have already equalled that after seeing off Builth Wells 22-8.
The Old Parish side ran in three tries through Grant Epsom, Scott Davies and Ryan Miles, while outside half Robert Evans added two conversions and a penalty.
The Bulls' solitary try of the match came after the break through Wayne Morris, while Luke Offa slotted a first half penalty.
Just across the town, new boys Maesteg Quins also kicked off their campaign with a win, defeating visiting Taibach 15-6.
Quins player coach, Dean Ronan, was once again the driving force behind his side's success crossing for an early try, with Ryan Lovett also touching down, while Gareth Lewis added one conversion and a penalty.
The Tigers in reply were restricted to two Aaron Jones penalties.
Fellow newcomers Haverfordwest didn’t get off to such a successful start as they were thrashed 37-10 by hosts Aberystwyth.
Aber’s Ian Ellis was the clear stand-out performer of the day as he notched up 27 of his side's points, including a hat-trick of touchdowns, while Paul Bumford and Dorian Coleman also got themselves on the scoresheet.
The Blues, who bagged the Division Three West title last season, could only muster two tries in reply from brothers Matthew and Adam Clarke.
However, Seven Sisters had no such problems at home against Crymych as they secured a 22-8 win, Daniel North, Gareth Thomas and Alun Jones all touching down for the hosts.
Elsewhere, Felinfoel comfortably saw off Penclawdd 39-14.
