🏉 **Tough Night for the Dragons!**
The Dragons gave it their all but were overpowered by the Bulls, ending in a 47-7 defeat at Rodney Parade. Despite the final scoreline, there were glimmers of promise from this new-look side. 🌟
Cai Evans was steady at fullback, while Jared Rosser impressed with a crucial defensive play and a lovely assist. Fine Inisi made his mark with a well-taken try, showcasing his newfound chemistry with Fetuli Paea in the midfield. Paea dazzled with his nimble hands, creating spaces and opportunities for his teammates throughout the match.
On the wings, Rio Dyer had some unfortunate near misses, but his skill under the high ball remains undeniable. Fly-half Tinus de Beer had a mixed evening but kept the Bulls on their toes with some clever kicking.
In the pack, Ryan Woodman delivered a standout performance in defence, and Harrison Keddie, stepping up as captain, was relentless in his tackles and carries. Despite some early scrummaging challenges, the Dragons’ forwards showed determination, with Levi Douglas and Seb Davies making their presence felt.
It might not have been the result the Dragons wanted, but with such a reshuffled line-up, there were certainly positives to build on moving forward. Keep your heads up, lads! 🐉💪 #DragonsRugby #NeverSayDie
