Match Report

Bridgend Blue Bulls had too much firepower for Cynon Valley Cavaliers, who had reached the U14 Grand Final in their first year as a club, storming home 38-6.

The Bulls, who were unbeaten in the regular season and only dropped a point in their final league match, at home to the Cavaliers, took the lead on 10 minutes through a Donovan Rankin try that Morgan Davies converted.

From kick-off, Andrew Moore ran over to make it 10-0. That went unconverted, as did Rankin’s second and Bridgend’s third on 17 minutes to make it 14-0.

From the first set after the next kick-off, Morgan Davies ran in under the sticks and Luke Murnane converted again to put the half-time score on 20-0.

Cynon Valley could have got a try back early in the second half but Dylan Lewis’ 70 metre run was stopped with just a couple of metres to go to the line.

After Bridgend successfully defended the rest of that set, they increased their lead when Davies ran half the length for his second and Murnane converted

Cynon Valley finally got a try back through Travis Hawkins that Jarrod Hippsley improved but it was mere consolation.

The last say went to Bridgend who got two tries right at the end. First Troy Shearan scored in the corner. Then with the last play of the game, Jac Gaines dived over.

NB: This match was played at 25 minutes each way.
