Mumbles 14 Burry Port 19

It was an early start for everyone , but when we arrived it was nice to see that the pitch was in good condition . Burry Port fielded their full team ( including their Scarlets ) But we were not allowed to play our Ospreys . Still it was a good chance for our squad to show it"s strength . We played against a very strong wind 1st half and deservedly took the lead with a good try from Ben Leek under the posts ( surprised to find out that it was Ben"s 1st try this season ) Tom Greenwood stepped up to get the conversion . We seemed comfortable but kicked out of defence straight to Luke Treharn , who went over out wide . We got back into the game and scored another good try by Tom Bennett and again Tom Greenwood converted from in front of the posts. We had another 2 attacks , 1 when Elmo went outside a few players only to be ankle tapped with a straight run in and then when Charlie stormed forward .
We thought that turning around 14-5 up and with the wind behind us that we were home and dry , but we seemed to play most of the 2nd half in our own half and run ball from some silly positions instead of kicking . Fair play to Burry Port they worked well as a team and came storming back to score 2 tries and conversions to win 19-14 . We need to stop the bickering when we start to go behind as even the parents were coming up to me after the game and mentioning it . We go onto the field as a team and come off as a team
