The Villagers undertook their bi-annual trip south to Cardiff for the 6 Nations and made sure the found time to face up to old foes and rugby brothers Whitchurch in a tour game on Saturday morning.
In a taste of what was to follow later that same day in the Principality Stadium, the Villagers lost out to their Welsh hosts, going down 32-25.
