End-to-end thriller as Mold finish campaign with defeat

Following two seasons in the top flight, Mold's final match before their return to Division Two was a 78-33 loss during their trip to Pwllheli. Mold gained a bonus point from their efforts and they conclude the campaign eight points from safety. At the other end of the rankings, it was celebration time for Nant Conwy. They retained their Division One North crown thanks to a thrilling 26-25 success at home to second-placed Pwllheli. It's been an epic race for the championship and Nant deservedly claim the title on the back of their undefeated campaign. Caernarfon remained on course for a runners-up finish as they got the better of Bala 33-22 and Llandudno gained a 29-13 triumph at home to COBRA. Wrexham Athletic were just pipped to the Division Three North East title. Llanidloes required a bonus point win over Ruthin Athletic to edge ahead of Wrexham at the top and they did just this with a four-try showing in a 34-22 outcome. RGC's Super Rugby Cymru season ended in frustrating fashion as they departed the play-offs with a 15-12 reverse at home to Carmarthen Quins. Carmarthen had much of the early pressure and this told when a cross-field kick was collected by winger Louis Rees for the opening try of the afternoon. RGC came out of the blocks quickly after the break and they soon had a try to celebrate. Charlie Probert pulled away to score and Billy McBryde added the conversion points. Then, from their first visit to the RGC 22 of the half, Quins came away with a try from Ifan Davies, who took advantage of space on the wing and went over. It was a tense half, with both sets of players knowing that any mistake could be crucial in this knockout game. Carmarthen stretched their lead out with try from an attacking maul. In the 78th minute, Caio Parry gave RGC hope with a try, but McBryde hit the post with a conversion drop kick attempt. RGC had one final push with over 15 phases looking to get the score, but Quins held out. Other result: Bridgend 33 Swansea 30.
