Scorers for Rumney : S.Hill try, J.Greedy try, L.Brincat conversion

Jim O'Brien, Rumney RFC : "We did well to win the Ninian Stuart Cup. We were the better side and Dave Evans, John Greedy, Andy McCormack and Lee Miller put in excellent performances ."

Ian Riby, Physio Rumney 3rd XV : "Excellent medical attention contributed largely to the win."

Scorers for Rumney Veterans : P.Willis try, E.Ford try, K.Ronald try, L,Feneck 2 tries, M.Oliver try, R.Facey 3 conversions

Jim O'Brien, Rumney RFC : "Quite an entertaining game and thoroughly enjoyable to watch. Edwin Ford was dangerous all night and Brian O'Connor never stopped working."

Larry Feneck, scrum half Rumney Veterans : "A good spirited game from both sides. Edwin Ford was the difference between the teams and he put in an outstanding performance. It was a good, hard contest between Mike Deacon and Richard Facey which nearly went into Round 2. Tony Smith spent a lot of time in the changing roon doing his hair and it was nice to see him playing in the backs even if he is built like a forward."

Tony Smith, scrum half St Albans Veterans : "There was an amazing level of fitness considering the maximum age was fifty eight. It is truly harder to play at this level because you are all playing at the same pace and you are doing more work. Micky Crimmins had an outstanding game, Mike Deacon had a stormer and I was more than happy with veteran Shaun Sheehan, a real chip off the old block. The good hospitality at Rumney is exceptional."

Scorers for Rumney : N.Williams try, L.Brincat 2 penalties

Colin Willis, Team Manager Rumney RFC 1st XV : "A scruffy game but the Little Genral Shaun Hill led by example and our youngsters played well against the old heads in the Caerau team. They had the bigger pack but we held them all the time and Andy McCormack won lots of lineout ball. Neil Williams scored the only try of the game, finishing off a very good three quarter movement."

Scorers for Rumney : J.Wheeler 2 tries, D.Phillips try, M.Buckley try, P.Collins try, C.Brincat penalty and 3 conversions

Mark Oliver, Rumney RFC : "Rumney started slowly and we kicked away a lot of possession but the forwards played very well with hooker Rob Regan winning balls against the head. In the second half we opened it up and the backs did a lot of damage with Jason Wheeler cutting through the opposition, while our own defence held out very well. The Man of the Match was Matthew Williams."

Scorers for Rumney : M.Hillier try, J.Wheeler 2 penalties

Scorers for Rumney : M.Williams try, M.Milsom penalty

Matthew Williams, Team Manager Rumney RFC 3rd XV : "A very closely contested game which we should have won. Every player performed well but the difference was that Llanishen scored a soft try and we missed a number of kicks. Man of the Match was Barry Chambers."

Scorers for Rumney : D.Phillips try, M.Williams try, J.Popple try, L.Brincat try and 2 penalties and 3 conversions

Jim O'Brien, Rumney RFC : "Apart from scoring in the first twenty seconds, Rumney were pretty poor at first and could not put things together. The second half was much better and resulted in a thoroughly deserved win. Darren Phillips took an interception and raced fifty metres to score, Lee Brincat did well at prop and in the centre Stuart Burnette had a fine game. The Man of the Match was John Popple."

Scorers for Rumney : C.Brincat try, M.Buckley try

John Popple, second row Rumney 3rd XV : "This was a good game with all the forwards and backs playing well together and setting up a strong team spirit. The Man of the Match was Ryan Fenton."

Alan Paynter, Rumney RFC : "Considering the conditions it was an open game. We took the lead and never lost it. Everyone played well and the Man of the Match was Charlie Brincat."

Scorers for Rumney : M.Milsom try, N.Ritchie try, M.Spencer 2 penalties and 2 conversions

Jim O'Brien, Rumney RFC : "Llanishen was the best side the third XV has played this season and they definitely deserved to win. The return encounter will certainly be an interesting one. Matthew Spencer played well until he had to come off with an injury, but once again we were well beaten up front. The Man of the Match was Mark Harrington."

Scorers for Rumney : P.Fowler try, M.Milsom try and conversion

Alan Paynter, Rumney RFC : "After an impressive first half, we found ourselves with discipline problems in the second half which resulted in a loss of control and finally we managed to lose the game too."

Scorers for Rumney : K.Ronald try, E.Griffiths try, M.Milsom try, penalty and conversion

Jim O'Brien, Rumney RFC : "We made hard work of it but in the end Rumney scored three tries and Llandaff North didn't have any. It was nice to see Andy McCormack back playing and the Man of the Match was Emyr Griffiths."

Scorers for Rumney : D.Phillips try, N.Ritchie try, L.Brincat try, E.Griffith try, B.Chambers try, M.Milsom 2 conversions

Jim O'Brien, Rumney RFC : "We were 12 - 29 up at half time and only our mistakes kept Taffs Well in the game. The first half was excellent and though we tended to sit on our lead in the second half, we deserved to win. The Man of the Match was Michael Carey."

Alan Paynter,Rumney RFC : "An evenly contested game against a good Taffs Well seconds. Rumney took the opportunities when they became available and those opportunities were well fought for. The highlight of the game was Lee Brincat's try which came after six or seven phases of play. The forwards and backs worked well together and created some nice combinations."

Scorers for Rumney : J.Wheeler try, M.Williams try, R.Sutton try, L.Brincat 2 penalties and 3 conversions

Jim O'Brien, Rumney RFC : "It was an excellent game with the Rumney forwards giving a terrier like performance against a much bigger pack. Messers Brincat and Greedy played very well and Michael Carey and Matthew Williams controlled things from half back. The Man of the Match was Ryan Sutton and the game was well refereed by Dilwyn Bush."

Ryan Sutton, Rumney RFC 3rd XV : "A scrappy game with loads of scrums but I did get a try - I picked it up from a knock on and there was no opposition about so I kept running and went over to score."

Scorers for Rumney : M.Williams 2 tries, D.Phillips try, D.Evans try, M.Milsom 2 penalties and 2 conversions

Jim O'Brien, Rumney RFC : "A good game played in an excellent spirit and judging by the way the Illtydians played, I'd never have believed that we could win by so much. Rumney produced good rugby and scored some nice tries. Darren Phillips on the wing played well all afternoon and deserved his try. Referee Steven Fry had a good game too. David Evans was the Man of the Match."

Scorers for Rumney : J.Wheeler try, D.Phillips try, M.Williams 2 tries, M.Perks try, E.Griffiths try, A.Feehan try, M.Milsom 2 tries and 5 conversions and 1 penalty

Matthew Williams, Coach Rumney RFC 3rd XV : "A good first game in which we established a strong forward platform. Youth team prop Andrew Feehan had an excellent game and so did the whole of the back row. It was a good all round performance with Matthew Milsom gaining the Man of the Match Award."
