Tycroes travel to Kidwelly in Specsavers National Two West tomorrow afternoon (Kick Off 2:30pm)

Third place Tycroes will be looking to maintain their excellent recent form and build on their 25-5 win against Milford Haven last weekend.

Tycroes have lost their last 3 fixtures against Kidwelly. The Black & Ambers won the last meeting between the two 22-44 at Cae Gelli back in April 2018.  

In form Tycroes have won their last 4 league matches but have not won 5 consecutive league fixtures since April 2017.

Tycroes have won 7 out of their 11 league fixtures this season. League strugglers Kidwelly are bottom of the table and have won just 2 out of their 12 league fixtures in comparison.

Tycroes make 5 changes to the starting XV that beat Milford Haven last time out.

There is just one change in the back division with Dean Bromham replacing Scott Davies at outside half. Luc Rees captains the side and partners Matthew Lemon in midfield.

Steffan Jones returns at number 8, which means positional changes for both Sam Icke and Daryl John. Second Row John James is on international duty, representing Wales Deaf this weekend so Luke Battisson joins Callum Davies in boiler house.

Hooker Hugh Conway misses out through injury and is replaced by Shane Roberts in the front row. Luke Stratford will play loosehead prop replacing Dylan Cooper who drops to the bench. Trystan Morgan will start at tighthead prop.

Tycroes team to play Kidwelly on Saturday 18^th January - Kick Off 2:30pm.
