Narberth 15
Llangennech 3
Narberth gained a deserved victory over Llangennech at the Lewis-Lloyd ground. The Otters maintained their form from the previous week against a side four places higher than them in the table and who won their home match against Narberth by 23-12.
All the points came in the first period when full back Roger Davies confirmed his promise of the match against Pontypool when he struck the first scoring blow with a try which stemmed from a sharp three-quarter move that had class written over it.
Craig Jones added the conversion and kicked a penalty from 24 metres to nudge his side ten points ahead, before Llangennech outside half Ellis Phillips opened his team’s account with a penalty on target. But another good move involving Roger Davies and his brother Richard created the space for an unconverted try by winger Nick Jones.
The Otters were able to maintain a tight defensive pattern after the interval as they made sure that Llangennech’s strong back division was kept quiet – and the Otter pack also did its job by securing quality possession at key times. There was no scoring as Llangennech also defended well, but it mattered little because this was a deserved win for Narberth as they continue to climb the section table.
