On Sunday Gowerton invited Loughor to Victoria Road on a very pleasant sunny autumn morning. A game of running rugby was on the cards and as a spectator this was not a disappointment with the ball being thrown widely around the ground. Gowerton came out as the positive team and took the game to Loughor. The Gowerton forwards were immense in the set piece leaving Loughor stunned and shocked! Outstanding back running was in Gowerton's best interest when Cameron Davies, Matthew Williams and Liam Morgan ran in some excellent tries. Half time score was 24 - 0.
Some excellent running from Loughor brought the score back to 29 - 7 with a try from Scott Rees and Joe Harris, but Gowerton were far too strong and determined for Loughor and took the game back to Loughor with more tries from Jack Porter, Liam Morgan (who had a hatrick) and David Dudley-Jones. Together with some excellent kicking from Matthew Williams the score line continued to increase. But towards the end of the game a bit of high spirits between the two teams left the linesman Dean Thomas flying through the air and pounding to the ground. The game finished with Gowerton feeling very proud of their performance with a final score of 53 points to 14. Well done to both teams for an outstanding game of rugby and thanks to Mike Bulpitt, match day referee.
