Undefeated pacesetters Glynneath opened up a six point advantage over their rivals at the top of One West thanks to a bonus point 27-20 win over league strugglers Ammanford.
Despite
the weather conditions, both sides endeavoured to play some expansive rugby
with classy fly-half Jack O’Riley once again starring for the leader as he
bagged 12 of his side's points through a try and seven points from the tee,
while Ashley Morgan, David Jones and Ryan Curtis also crossed the whitewash.
Ammanford
remain rooted to the bottom following the seventh loss of their campaign, but
did come away with a losing bonus point thanks to tries from Cerith Evans and
Marco Dallaballe, while Rhydian Morris slotted two penalties and both
conversions.
At the other end of the table, Loughor bagged only
their third win of the campaign when they saw off fellow strugglers Llangennech
with a 22-0 triumph.
The Blues showed all the attacking endeavour as
they defied the conditions to cross four times through Nick O’Kelly, Morgan
Bryant, Dan Howells and Peter Smiriglia.
Meanwhile, Carmarthen Athletic leapt to second in
the table courtesy of a narrow 8-6, hard-fought home success over last season’s
runners up Cwmllynfell.
In awful conditions, Owain Herbert crossed for the
only try of the game for Athletic with Mike Sauro firing over the crucial
penalty.
Tristan Lewis kicked all of Cwmllynfell’s points as
they slipped down to fifth in the league following their third loss.
In a tight contest at Croft Goch, it was the hosts
Kenfig Hill that came out on top as they edged past Waunarlwydd 7-0 in a match
heavily hampered by the wet and wild conditions.
Mark Fitzgerald went over for the game's solitary
and decisive try, with Mikey Giles adding the extras for the Mules as they
moved up to fourth in the table.
Elsewhere, Whitland clinched only their third
victory in eight starts as they dispatched Kidwelly 13-5. The Borderers
outscored their rivals two tries to one with touchdowns from Jack Mason and
Keiran White.
Finally, in the day’s other scheduled fixture, the
match between Crymych and Builth Wells was postponed due to a waterlogged
pitch.
