B&A RFC 5, Cleve RFC 3 (24/11/12)

| 11/04/2013

Bridgwater’s almost total domination of territory and possession was not reflected in the scoreline.   Despite all the recent rain, the pitch was in reasonable condition and stood up very well for the whole 80 minutes. Bridgwater brought in Sam Russell at No 6 with skipper, Dan Kemmish, moving to No 8. Ollie Dunn moved […]

B&A RFC Colts 3, Wellington Colts 17 (16/11/12)

Played at times in almost monsoon conditions handling errors were numerous from both teams and the first 10 minutes was just about dominated by the visitors whose pacey backs had the edge. Several times though errors were forced from them, through strong defence, especially in the centre where Wellington’s penetration was nullified. Virtual domination of […]

Bridgwater & Albion Colts were mostly dominant in this match and squandered a number of clear oportunities to score heavily by some poor decision making. However a visit to Wivvy is never easy they came away with 5 precious league points on a fairly sticky pitch.  Albion went ahead after just 4 minutes when No8 […]

This was a game full of incident. We had one potentially very serious injury to Rob Allen when he collided head first with a goal post in attempting to prevent the first Camborne try. The game was held up for 38 minutes whilst he received treatment on the field and was then taken to Treliske […]

Bridgwater travelled to Bath for an early kick off, hoping to improve on recent weeks form. Preparations were not as good as they would have liked, with several players turning out despite playing the previous evening. Doug Page-Symonds and Will Kerry forming an unlikely second row partnership showed their club spirit by doing just this. They […]

Looking at the scoreline, one would be forgiven in thinking that Bridgwater dominated this game.  For much of the game this would be correct but the home side had a couple of purple passages in the second half that put the senior side under some pressure. For the second week running, Bridgwater scored six tries […]

On an extremely boggy and usual sloping pitch Bridgwater did well to run in 34 points against a determined and improved side whom they beat earlier in the season. Minehead started the better and for 10 minutes looked like they would take an early lead until following a scrum on their 10 metre line a […]

With the game brought forward to Friday evening because of the Bridgwater Carnival the teams took to the field to be greeted with a fine firework display from a nearby event. The game itself was also very bright and cheerful and good entertainment for the large crowd. Bridgwater gave a home debut to new prop, Christian […]

Somerset Colts League The game was played with uncontested scrums as the home side were short of a prop and they were out-gunned by a rampant Albion pack who scored their first try after five minutes through hooker Tom Hillman who was driven over the line following a scrum for a knock on with Flyhalf […]
