LLANDUDNO extended their perfect Specsavers National League Division One North campaign with an emphatic 41-0 home victory over Llangefni.
Fresh off their midweek North Wales Cup triumph over Ruthin, the Goats’ cemented their place at the top of the standings as they look to make it back-to-back championship victories this term.
Wind and heavy rain had a considerable impact throughout, but the home side set their stall out early and went ahead on seven minutes when Rhys Henderson crossed the line for the opening score.
Another impressive passing move on 14 minutes saw Morgan Owen touch down for an unconverted try, and Henderson was once again the beneficiary of a blistering attack with his second score of the afternoon with 23 on the clock. Arthur Lennon added the extras.
The outstanding Henderson was having his way with the Cefni defence and he dotted over for his hat trick, which Lennon converted, and another score late in the period gave them a commanding 29-point cushion at the interval.
After the break saw the Goats’ extend their unassailable lead on 52 minutes when Dylan Coulter went over near the posts, and Henderson capped off a profitable day at the office with the game’s final try. Lennon despatched both conversion attempts to complete the rout.
Nant Conwy’s fixture at home to COBRA was postponed due to adverse weather conditions, but Colwyn Bay managed to extend their impressive recent Division Two North form thanks to a hard fought 12-10 triumph at Llanidloes.
Rachel Taylor’s side showed their customary grit to scoop another fine victory on their travels, which consolidates their status in fifth after 12 league games.
