Trimsaran vs Pontyberem

With the Scrum V cameras down at Caeffair for what was certain to be a thrilling local derby , it certainly didnt disappoint with no less than 13 tries scored in the game. Unfortunately for the green and blacks 8 of them were scored by Pontyberem who run away 55-33 winners and moved a step closer to winning the league.
Trimsaran found themselves down 31-0 after 25 minutes with Bonts offloading skill and breaking through the tackle area proving to be to much for the hosts to deal with. Trim scored their 1st try of the game not long before half time but a stupid penalty off the kick off allowed Bont to kick 3 points as the half time score was 34-7.
Things didnt look to good for Trim but the teamtalk at half time seemed to do them well and they went on to win the second half by 26-21. It was just a shame that Trim couldnt show up with the same attitude in the 1st half. Taking nothing away from Bont though they played some of the best rugby seen by a visiting team to Trimsaran for some time and were deserved winners and showed why they were league leaders with some ruthless offloading skills.
The end result seen Trim score a Try Bonus Point which closed the gap on the top 4 with 3 games remaining.
