After a prolonged break from playing due to the poor weather we have endured over the last few months we were a little rusty and should have put the game to bed by half time!!! Had we taken our chances.
The first half was a tight affair with one try from Dunvant (Dannie White) that went unconverted - 5 - 0. South Gower responded quite quickly taking a penalty attempt 5 - 3. The remainder of the first half was a mixture of errors, dropped balls, missed opportunities etc!! - Half time score 5 - 3.
Having turned around following the break South Gower were first to strike with a converted try 5 - 10 to the away team. Play continues with a try from replacement flanker Danial Rogers, the conversion being missed 10 - 10. Dunvant were next to score with a try out wide from hooker Ethan Murphy following up on a good attack made by winger Tom Lewis. (Watch both these tries HERE).
With minutes to go South Gower struck back with a try from our error by not finding touch from a penalty. The try scored was within kicking distance but luckily South Gower missed the opportunity to take the lead - 15 - 15.
WIth seconds to go in the match replacement flanker Dan Messer crossed for a try with the conversion taken by outside half Brandon Wood - Final score Dunvant 22 South Gower 15.
We can do better than the performance we displayed today - We'll put it down to the enforced break due to the lovely Welsh weather!!!
