The Magpies scored six tries to see off visiting Pembrokeshire side Haverfordwest 39-22 at Parc y Mynydd Mawr. After taking an early lead through a Leighton McKenna penalty Tumble soon found themselves 3-5 behind when Haverfordwest went over for an unconverted try. Scrum half Iwan Morgan then darted over for an unconverted try of his own before completing his brace after 26 minutes with a try that was converted by McKenna. Wing Mike Edwards made it 20-5 with 30 minutes on the clock when he went over in the corner before Haverfordwest got their second try of the match. Centre Steffan Price secured a bonus point with Tumble's fourth try of the game on the stroke of half time making the score 25-10 to the Magpies at half time.
Tumble started the second half in dominant mood and scored another two tries in the first 10 minutes again through Price and Morgan, who secured his hat-trick. Both tries were converted by full back Steven Hewitt, who had taken over the kicking duties. After an hour the momentum of the match switched as Tumble took their foot off the accelerator and allowed Haverfordwest to take control. The Blues scored two tries in the last 20 minutes of the match to gain some respectability and snatch a bonus point.
Tumble RFC Man of the Match: Gareth Armstrong.
