Bedwas move into last eight

The Otters battled until the final whistle, but failed to make an impression at key times when Bedwas had players yellow-carded.

Bedwas also had flanker Rob Carter yellow-carded but so was Gethin Bateman at a key time for the Otters in a match where neither side was prepared to give an inch.

Influential No 10 Gethin Worgan gave Bedwas the lead with an 11th minute penalty but Narberth scored the game’s first try when outside half Craig Jones ghosted through for a try which he also converted from in front of the posts.

But Bedwas quickly responded with a try by hooker Kieran Crawford and flanker Rob Carter grabbed the second, which was beautifully converted by Worgan, who also notched a penalty.

In an equally tense second period, Worgan landed his third penalty before No 8 Luke Dyckoff also crossed for Bedwas from a concerted forward drive to the line for Worgan to convert.

Narberth had the final word when winger Tom Bonnell sped through for full back Roger Davies to convert but it was Bedwas who deservedly made their way through to the last eight and now the Otters can now focus on moving up the section table to preserve their league status.
