RAG U18: Young Dragons out for revenge

Cardiff Blues South earned bragging rights over their rivals from the North of the region as they picked up a 20-0 victory at the Arms Park in the Regional Age Grade Under 18 championship.

It was their second successive triumph of the season, following their big home win over RGC 1404, and meant they got one over on the North having played in a 24-24 draw in August. They scored three tries as they expanded their 15-0 lead into a 20 point triumph in the end.

Outside half Jacob Beetham opened the scoring with a penalty and then converted a try by wing Jay Jones. Opposite wing Joe Patterson added a second try before the break and lock Teddy Williams completed the scoring with the third try after the break.

The Dragons will get their chance at revenge over table-topping Scarlets at Ystrad Mynach tonight (Wednesday, 7.15pm kick-off) as they attempt to close the six point gap on the unbeaten leaders. The Scarlets have won five out of five to date, and picked up a bonus point in each victory, to set the standard this season.

They went down 38-19 at Parc Y Scarlets in August, but have since won three in a row against RGC 1404 (59-12), Blues South (36-5) and the Ospreys (39-17). The Scarlets are enjoying their best season in the competition and will be virtually guaranteed to top the table if they make it six bonus point wins in a row.

The Ospreys head to North Wales to meet RGC 1404. They beat the Gogs 66-5 on the opening day of the tournament.
