The boys raised their game and applied huge pressure that led to a try from a driving maul the conversion brought them back to within a point at 18-17.

The Rocks then produced a lovely handling move that led to a try wide out making it 23-17 so a bonus pint fr Llantwit and a great effort against the team that now top the league.
