Llanharan 48 v Penarth 12
26.8.21
Match Report by Gareth Nicholas
Another game played at the Dairyfield, where the home team made significant strides forward in the development of rugby played in Llanharan. After several years of lean pickings, Llanharan have won their 4th game on the trot to top their group by a considerable margin.
After 2 Man of the Mtch performances by Lloyd "Frodo" Gregory, it was decided to give him a rest, only for his replacement Ieuan Pring to step up to the mark and give a Man of the Match performance himself, scoring a hat trick of tries and setting up others.
The bonus point was reached by Ieuan's second try, early in the second half. His partner in crime Ieuan Evans, made an outstanding comeback, running the line out with confidence and his Donald Trump comb over could be seen never more than 10m from the ball.
It was a night of big performances, with veteran 47 year old second row, Richard Byers putting in his best game for the Dairymen, culminating in a well taken try.
Other tries came from Mr Lover lover himself (Scott Jones) and a brace from Jack Pring, who is only playing so that we can fulfill the criteria to get European Fundung for services for Special Needs players. Well done Jack.
Penarth were no mugs and started the game in spectacular fashion, scoring a try with in 3 minutes of kick off. Although the scoreline suggests a one sided affair, it was far from that but this current crop of players are made of stern stuff.
Andy Price, celebrating his 64 and a half birthday, admitted the forwards were once again superb.
Scorers for Llanharan:
Tries; Ieuan Pring 3, Jack Pring 2, Richard Byers, Scott Jones.
Con: Scott Jones 5, Pen Sott Jones.
