McIntosh brothers star for Brecon

THE McIntosh brothers ganged up on Senghenydd as they notched 22 points in Brecon’s big away win in Division One East.

Bouncing back from their disappointing defeat at Ammanford in their last outing, they came out all guns blazing to win 60-8. Brecon notched eight tries in the process, with their hosts grabbing only one.

Dion McIntosh’s contribution was 12 points from his ever-reliable boot, with three conversions and two penalties, while Logan McIntosh helped himself to two tries to ensure there was a smile on the face of their father, head coach Dale.

Morgan Price weighed in with a try and four conversions and then Owen Morgan scored a brace. Other tries were provided by Eifion Jones, Owain Williams and Lewis Smout.

The win hauled Brecon back up into third place in the table on 32 points and they have four games in hand on the top two sides, unbeaten Newbridge and Brynmawr.
