Caerphilly 28 v Newbridge 27

In a 55 point thriller, our boys lost by a single point after trailing 13-3 at the break to table-toppers Caerphilly.

Forwards coach Mark Thomas revealed ‘It was a good display, but we lacked a bit of confidence which in the end cost us the game.’

‘We made a few mistakes, which they took advantage of, and we may well have done a lot better.’

Scrum-half Tom Edwards (2) and number eight David Ford touched down for Newbridge, whose other points came from a couple of penalties and a trio of conversions by centre Shaun Thomas.
