Dunvant against Ystalyfera was postponed, while the top of the table clash between Brecon and Narberth had already been postponed due to Brecon’s rescheduled WRU Championship Cup round two clash at Bonymaen. However for the second week running the weather forced the tie to be postponed.
The winners of the tie between Bonymaen and Brecon will go to Bedwas in the quarter-finals. The other ties see last season’s runners-up Ystrad Rhondda hosting Cardiff Met, Narberth face Dunvant and Bargoed going up against Llangennech.
