DUNVANT FACE LLANELLI WANDERERS AT STRADEY PARK (26th Mar)

DUNVANT FACE LLANELLI WANDERERS AT STRADEY PARK (26th Mar)

Roger Knight24 Mar 2016 - 21:30

Dunvant travel to Stradey Park this weekend to face 6th placed Llanelli Wanderers for the first time this season

We last met the Wanderers in 2010-11 with Dunvant’s first journey into Division 3 West, whilst we finished 3rd that season Wanderers were relegated to Division 4. Both teams are now deservedly in Division 1 West, Dunvant lying in 1st place with a 13 point lead after Friday’s 85-39 win over Tenby United. Wanderers last game was also against Tenby three weeks ago where they won 15-31 at Heywood Road. Wanderers are comfortable in 6th place with 7 wins and 2 draws from 16 played. Although Wanderers have won 5 home games from 8 ,their home form in 2016 has only seen a 6-6 draw with Llangennech on 2nd January and an 8-16 loss to Loughor on 23rd January. On the road in 2016 they have lost two and won one away (Tenby). Wanderers will certainly be seeking a home victory and the prestige of defeating Dunvant. We have not yet faced them this season as our home game was called off but we now face them twice in 3 weeks with them visiting Broadacre on 16th April, so bragging rights for this game will set it up nicely for the return match .
For those that cannot travel to Stradey, Dunvant 2nd XV are home to neighbours Gorseinon in the last league game of the season and will appreciate some home support.
Don’t forget you red and green supporters- respect the Referee, respect the players, respect our opponents and enjoy the game, whatever the result, wherever you are. Be Loud-Be Proud
