Thirteen matches have been played – seven at home and six away – and so the second half of the season will have seven away matches and only six at College Way. The season started well.

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

For the fourth time in the last six matches Bridgwater had to be content with a single losing bonus point and they have now slipped another place in the league table to eighth writes Tony Pomeroy. Bridgwater were missing their two usual wingers – Joel Clark is playing for the Caymen Islands in a sevens […]

Match Report by Tony Pomeroy This was yet another game of two halves.  St. Austell dominated the first period with the aid of the breeze, building up a commanding 0-19 lead.  This was increased by a penalty at the start of the second period before Bridgwater came back into the game. The home side gradually […]
