Aberavon Quins 41 Cwmgors 5

The Quins were far too strong in all departments for a injury hit Cwmgors.

The  early exchanges were even but the Quins pack showed signs of scrum dominance. Ill discipline cost the Quins early penalties and Steff  Rees placed one neatly in the right hand corner and from the resulting line out the visitors set up good maul from which Dylan Hills scored a well worked try.

The Quins hit back through strong forward play. No.8 Craig Cox picked up from the base of the scrum and clever scrum half Jake Flynn put Richard Wanklyn on the way to beating two defenders to score a try. Ryan Pugh gave the Quins the lead with a wide angled conversion. Several injuries held up play resulting in the first half lasting almost an hour. Ryan Pugh added a penalty to stretch the lead and some fiercely strong running from hooker Luke Davies, Cox and Glen Williams took it's toll on would-be tacklers.

Two occasions the Quins eight rolled back the visitors scrum across the line but failed to ground the ball to the ref 's satisfaction.

In the line out Callum Beynon and Dale Bowen were superb  

Inevitably the injury count mounted for Cwmgors and passive scrums were called for.

The young Quins backs revelled in good possession and produced some attractive running but on occasion were guilty of over elaboration.

Cox and Flynn again combined in style and a clever kick from the scrum half produced a remarkable try for Luke Davies, Pugh missed the conversion but added the points for an Adam Dawe try soon after. Wanklyn put in some devastating runs to set up attacking chances some of which were frittered away.

Cox grabbed a good try converted by Pugh who also put in some deft touches at fly half.

Cox added his second again converted by Pugh before Strong running winger Kyle Williams crossed for the final try giving the Quins a bonus point win especially rewarding as nine of the current youth squad featured.
