RGC seek third straight win

-

RGC will seek a third straight win in the Swalec Championsh­ip when they take on Beddau at Parc Eirias this Saturday (2.30pm).

Last weekend the Gogs eventually ran out comfortabl­e 39-7 winners at Bridgend Athletic.

They led 10-0 at half time thanks to a pushover try converted by Danny Cross and a James Lang penalty.

The second half saw RGC pile on early pressure, and straight from the kick-off Cross claimed a try.

A great team try finished off by Tom Hughes gave the Gogs a 20-0 lead before a rare defensive slip-up from the away side allowed Athletic in for a converted score.

Back came the visitors with Tom Seddon touching down in the corner and then Lang came up with a try under the posts, Cross improving with the boot.

Prop Joe Simpson then rounded off a pleasing afternoon for the Gogs with a converted try right on the final whistle.

Bangor Youth made it 10 wins in 11 matches and surged ahead at the Division Two summit after a narrow 17-15 success over visitors Newtown last weekend.

The scoreline stood 10-10 at half time, centre Cameron Owen and wing Steffan Jones crossing for the hosts and Logan Friel and Matt Roberts replying for the visitors.

A Tom Andrews try edged Newtown ahead early in the second half.

However, Bangor clinched it when, after a tap penalty, the hosts passed the ball along the line and No10 Matt Roberts crossed in the corner for a try.

Cameron Owen won it when his conversion sailed between the posts, to huge cheers from the home contingent.
