Team Bath men’s 1st XV end 2019 with BUCS Super Rugby reverse in tough conditions at Cardiff Met

Team Bath men’s 1st XV were beaten 33-12 at Cardiff Met on Wednesday in their final BUCS Super Rugby game of 2019.

In a match played in monsoon conditions in the Welsh capital, it was the hosts who managed the conditions best as they opened up a 19-0 lead at half-time.

They stretched that out to 33-0 before Team Bath finished the game on a positive note with a couple of late tries, one of which was converted.

The result sees the Blue & Gold – sponsored by Fulkers Bailey Russell and also supported by Rengen Developments – go into the Christmas break sitting eighth in the league table.
