Match report by Tony Pomeroy This match was a great advertisement for level 6 rugby. Both teams and the referee contributed to a game that kept the crowd on its toes until the final whistle. Yes, there were errors as both sides mishandled and missed first time tackles but this all added to the excitement […]

Written by Tony Pomeroy What a superb game of rugby. With both sides prepared to throw the ball about, and a referee with enough experience and common sense to let them, the sizable crowd were treated some fine entertainment. There were ten tries in all and both teams deservedly received a four-try bonus point. Bridgwater […]

Bridgwater managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in this pulsating game in Bristol writes Tony Pomeroy.  Bridgwater were severely handicapped  throughout the game as referee, Andy Miller of the Bristol Society, seemed to take a grave dislike to their play. The home side won the penalty count 13-3 and the free kicks […]

Match report by Tony Pomeroy Bridgwater’s dominant pack laid a solid foundation for this comfortable victory. They won at least three scrums against the head, were secure in the lines-out, with Dan Kemmish and his cohorts reigning supreme, and very strong in the loose. However, thanks to a registration indiscretion at the end of last […]

Despite this pointless defeat, Bridgwater made the return trip form Cornwall with their collective and individual heads held high writes Tony Pomeroy.  Last season, St Austell were in the promotion chase whilst Bridgwater were somewhat lower in the table but on the evidence of this match, the positions could be reversed this time. Bridgwater’s nemesis […]

With Bridgwater & Albion putting out a relatively inexperienced pack for this pre-season friendly, Blackwood exerted a great of pressure at the set pieces and in the loose. Having said that, the Bridgwater players stuck manfully to their task, scoring four tries. In the first minute, Blackwood lost possession in midfield. Bridgwater hacked on the […]
