Team news for Saturday’s game at Beddau-Richard Powell returns!!


Bedwas play their last league game before a mini break for Six Nations rugby when they travel to Beddau RFC on Saturday.

Following on from last week’s hard-earned win over Ystalyfera RFC Steffan Sankala’s selection shows some changes.

The starting back’s selected remain the same other than Matty Bancroft in for Dion McIntosh at fly half. Upfront we welcome tight head prop Rhys Lewis on permit from Merthyr RFC. Gareth Allen returns at second row, Mike Dacey at hooker, and Dale Rogers at Number 8 are the only other changes from last week.

On the bench we welcome back a familiar face in the shape of prolific points scorer Richard Powell on permit from Nantyglo RFC.

The twenty selected are:

  1. Sam Davies, 14. Alec Jones, 13. Dafydd Thomas, 12. Lewis Bowden, 11, Aaron Billingham, 10. Matt Bancroft, 9. Rory Harries; 1. Ben Drew, 2. Mike Dacey, 3. Rhys Lewis, 4. Gareth Allen, 5. Craig Hudd (Captain), 6. Ben Sier, 7. Rhys Morgans, 8. Dale Rogers.

Bench: 16. Rhys Hutcherson, 17. Rhys Jones, 18. Corey Bushell-Thomas, 19. Owen Jones, 20. Richard Powell
