Cardiff Blues North u16 V Dragons Team Announced

21st November 2005


The race for a place in this season's WRU Regional under 16 Championship final is certainly hotting up with tonight's fifth round of matches likely to shape the competition.

The Dragons, Ospreys, Blues North and Blues South have all won twice so far this term although the Ospreys are sitting on top of the pile by virtue of having earned more bonus points than the other three.

After winning their last two games, Blues North will entertain the Dragons at Penygraig after switching the game from Treorchy due to the inclement weather conditions.

The North have been the surprise package this season. Having finished at the foot of the table last season, they have worked tirelessly to create a platform this season and their two victories over Blues South and the Scarlets last time out at Stradey Park.

The Blues' performance manager Gafyn Cooper said, "We have been pleased with the way the North have developed this season. Their two victories have been thoroughly deserved and it would be great to see them make it three in four.

In the other game, the Scarlets, who have lost all three games to date despite running Blues North close two weeks ago, travel to Corus Rugby Club to face the Ospreys who have lost just one of their three games so far - 13-12 against the Dragons at Newbridge.

Team:

Owen Morgan, Callum Rowe, Tom Rees, Lewis Hughes, Jordan Jones, Harry Allen, Rhys Downes, Liam Brabam, Geraint Evans, Daniel Lewis, James Dunne, Gareth Capelin, Kyle Perry, Rhys Williams ©, David Miles
