Dancing Wideman Seals It
Longlevens 23 - 0 Kingswood
LEVENS knew a much-improved performance was needed after a close game the previous week against local rivals Hucclecote. However returning player/coach Richard Rudge rallied his troops into a fine performance against a much-larger travelling Bristol side.
The home side put huge pressure on Kingswood's strong-looking back line, forcing multiple errors.
Levens started well with surging runs from deep, Luke Peer running well, and were unlucky not to cross when full back Dan Wilton burst through, offloading to Ed Cross.
Harry Yorkie decided to go it alone on the next attack, sidestepping poor Kingswood defence to cut through and force his way over. Peer failed with the extras.
With the home side rallying, Kingswood's defence showed frailites and ill discipline resulted in Peer taking three points just before half time.
Kingswood rarely entered the home side's half in the second period with Rudge and Peer keeping them at bay with probing kicks.
Territory paid off with the Levens pack rumbling from a sweet lineout from Pope and Jones, with Mark Hancock emering with ball in hand over the line. Peer added the extras.
The away side offered little in reply and further tries went begging for Liam Dance and substite Shane O'Brien.
Levens had one final flurry after good runs by Joe Skalked, Jeff Hodges, Frazer McNaught and Gav Stokes put Levens deep. Skipper Dave Byrne feed fly half Rudge who put full Back Wilton away out wide, drawing his man and offloading to racing winger Dance to fly over in the corner. Peer added the conversion to seal a 23-0 win.
