Cleve RFC 13, BARFC 0 (07/02/15)

Bridgwater travelled up the M5 on a cold and overcast day to take on the current league leaders Cleve. They had not been defeated at home this season and only squandered two wins away so this was always going to be a tough game for third placed Bridgwater. The game was littered with handling errors […]

On derby day at College Way, Bridgwater’s second string travelled up the M5 to play their counterparts at Hornets. Hornets kindly agreed to an early kick off so the team could get back in time to watch some of the action between Bridgy and Pethy. With Hornets sitting at the top of the table with […]

The tension of the local derby seemed to get to the players as mistakes abounded on both sides but the excitement of the afternoon never abated. Bridgwater made only […]

Bridgwater second team opted keep the bulk of the team that orchestrated a 40 point win over Old Sulians at College Way last week. They travelled to Castle Cary to take on their first team and were looking for some retribution after losing by a single point at home earlier in the season. There were […]

Bridgy were unrecognisable as the same team that lost heavily the previous week. Their closing down of Weston runners and first up tackling was a vast improvement. So much so that, three minutes in the Bridgwater centres were caught well offside in their enthusiasm. Weston slotted the resultant penalty. For the remainder of the first […]

Bridgwater made a couple of changes after last week’s defeat at Bideford. Nick Francis returned to the wing in place of […]

This result is the heaviest defeat for Bridgy’s colts for some. The main factors being some very poor tackling from Bridgwater in defence and (credit to Wellington) the sheer mobility and physical fitness of all their players, of which they appear to have almost two full squads again! In truth, going forward, Bridgwater exercise good […]
