Warriors match report-never quite got to pressThe Warriors 5th season begins...
The World Cup arrived and The Warriors and Gladiators were determined to make the most of it. This match was played at Swansea RFC's World Cup village on the day of the Wales v Japan group match.
First we had to get there though. A mix up with buses meant that a very full 9 seater 'bus' eventually made it's way over Louchor bridge.
The hastily put together Llanelli side played above themselves with 1st Lee Rowlands latching onto a loose ball and later fly half Dylan 'Twinkle' Higgon scoring a cracking try under the posts with Dai Spriggs converting both. At time down to 13 players the Llanelli team were under the cosh for most of the second half but were still within a score of the Gladiators until the hosts secured one overlap too many and Paul Rowley crossed wide out.
The poor weather on the day put paid to anyone coming out of the comfort of the marquee to watch but it's always good to play at St. Helens. Afterwards the teams spent a pleasent afternoon watching Wales see off Japan in the world cup.
