Defence is poor on both sides. Makes for a cracking game though.

Blimey!

Defences might have been poor but I bet that was a good match to watch!

A few of us have been saying it's a crying shame it wasn't available on tv or at least on the radio. Hopefully there will be highlights available soon.

Typical, unfortunately. But hopefully the tries will be shown on the International Tries show this week on Sky.

I wonder how many were at Neath to watch?

Just over 2,000 I believe.

That is better than I had imagined it would be, given the non-league nature of the area. Let's hope they found the competitive nature of the game good to watch.
