LLANELLI scored four second half tries to overturn BEDWAS’ 3-9 half time lead at Stradey Park. Ken Owen, Liam Davies, Morgan Stoddard and Craig Richards all crossed to give the Scarlets a 28-19 win.
At the Old Parish, fly-half Luke Richards scored 12 points, as MAESTEG beat LLANDOVERY 22-12. Gareth Edwards and Gavin Ronan also scored for the Parish, as they claimed their third consecutive victory.
