This was a thrilling game to entertain the large crowd. Yes, there were mistakes made, but the spectacle of eleven tries on a perfect afternoon for rugby made the crowd regret this was Bridgwater’s last home game of the year writes Tony Pomeroy. Bridgwater brought Jon Hill into fullback but the rest of the side […]

After a weekend off both teams were looking to get their respective seasons going with a much needed win. Bridgwater looked to play some expansive rugby straight from the kick off and only a knock on from the returning Basson stopped a try from being scored. Albion were looking dangerous, with the backline linking up […]

Bridgwater Colts extended their winning league  run to 5 matches by a comprehensive 16 try defeat of their coastal rivals at Bath Road on Saturday. Minehead arrived with just 11 players which the home side matched, and within eight minutes Bridgy were 17 points to the good.  The half was really a domination of Minehead through both […]

MATCH REPORT BY TONY POMEROY:        Bridgwater were hoping to gain points to offset their recent five point deduction for playing an unregistered player in early November.  However, with a somewhat lacklustre performance at Hornets, it was not to be. Bridgwater were missing Ali Blundell and Tayler Buller from the pack, bringing in […]

Somerset Colts League As the score shows this was a very tight match played in murky conditions but was fast and furious for all that. The Frampton game was around their mobile pack with quick ball in the tackle, and sustained pressure from them 10 mins. in led to their first unconverted try, unsurprisingly from […]

On a night perfect for rugby, a slightly disappointing crowd turned up to watch the local derby played on November 13th. Both sides were slightly below full strength but we were served up with a match that oozed passion and commitment. Bridgwater started strongly and took an early lead with an angled 40m penalty from […]

Bridgwater travelled to Castle Cary with a strong looking side, hoping to continue building on the promise that has been showing in recent weeks. This was always going to be a tough game against a Cary first team sporting their usual large pack. The game kicked off with Bridgy playing down the slope. Neither team […]

Match report by Tony Pomeroy Bridgwater put their recent travails behind them as they took five points from this seven try demolition of Sidmouth. However, the Devon side, smarting from a reported five point deduction for playing an unregistered player, contributed fully to an excellent game of rugby. The foundation for this result was built […]
