South Gower 29 - Gowerton 29

Gowerton travelled to South Gower for the first match of the new season.  A full compliment of 22 players showed great team spirit throughout the match.  South Gower opened the scoring with 2 very quick tries, but the determination of Gowerton did not let South Gower get too far ahead, with excellent tries from Matthew Williams & Jack Porter and also converted by Matthew Williams.  South Gower then came back with a very good worked try.

After the re-start a rejuvinated Gowerton pack were very competitive and scrumaged very well and in doing so took the game to South Gower.  As a unit we played as a team and did not let our heads drop and came back with a vengance., with great tries from David Dudley-Jones and Ashley Watkins and converted by Jack Petherbridge. The game was brought to an end with a consolation try for South Gower, in doing so a draw was a fair result for both teams.  As the first match of the season it was a pleasure for both spectators and players alike to be part of an outstanding game of rugby.

Training Tuesday 6 pm prompt.
