Michael Silcox sealed the victory with a hat-trick of tries for the SWALEC Four East leaders while Gareth Gibbs and Keiron Hughes also went over. Dean Watkins converted two and Alan Ford added a penalty to his conversion.

SWALEC Four South West opponents Vardre worked hard to get back into the game but a five pointer from Luke Thomas converted by Liam Garland, who also slotted over a penalty was not enough.

Vardre team manager Keith Jones said: “You could say that a few decisions went against us but in the end we were beaten by a better side on the day.”

Senghenydd will meet Maesteg Quins at Millennium Stadium Finals Day after a nail-biting 31-30 victory over Four South East outfit Porth Quins at Taffs Well RFC.

Porth led 30-28 into the final minute when Gareth Lewis pounced to land a match-winning drop goal and send his side to the Millennium Stadium.

Lewis also converted a penalty try and landed six penalties for a personal tally of 23 points as Maesteg Quins of Four South West, extended their unbeaten record in all competitions.
