Ebbw Vale 20 Carmarthen Quins 26, Indigo Premiership, 16/11/19

Following the televised debacle at Cardiff the previous Friday night, this was a much improved performance from Ebbw Vale, which nonetheless resulted in another disappointing home defeat.

The Steelmen have developed an unfortunate habit of being slow starters in games and this was no exception with the visitors from Carmarthen building a 21-3 lead. A converted Ewan Rosser try just before the break made the half time orange taste a little better.





Ebbw were much better in the second half, and a converted Ashley Sweet try brought them back to within four points, but a fourth Quins try tore things up, despite a late penalty yielding a losing bonus point for the home side.
