| 11/04/2013

Making a mockery of their respective league positions, Bridgwater totally dominated Thornbury in this game to record their first home win of the season. Some determined defence by the Gloucestershire team restricted Bridgwater to only one try in the second half which was almost completely played within the Thornbury 22. However, whilst the win was […]

Hornets ran out comfortable winners in this national Colts Cup game and one that the home side would rather forget.

Already Hornets were showing their intent with a major part […]

Bridgwater once again looked very lacklustre […]
