Next, came the visit of Jonah Lomu and Steve Thomp- son to Bangkok. They put in a lot of time at Pattana on the Saturday coaching the kids and then attended a Charity dinner in the evening. It was a great few days while they were here with lots of photo opportunities. Bangers rugby shirts were given to them which they both immediately wore. The evening also inspired some unusual behaviour and the subject of a new t-shirt. Then the annual Bangers Golf Day. Very well organ- ised.

    ONE MORE FRIENDLY, THEN IT GETS SERIOUS (26/08/13) The nights are closing in, the autumn leaves are preparing to fall and our coaches are preparing their players. A sunny evening at Nantyglo drew a sizeable crowd to watch a game of intensity, the home players were intent on showing why they did not lose a League match last season and ours were intent on getting to know each other. As expected there was a strong forward challenge and many changes were made on a quite excellent pitch which was much better than others we could mention but being polite will not. We met former Steelmen among whom the most vociferous were Nantyglo coaches Nigel Meek and Jason Williams still putting a lot back into the game. Standing within earshot of them along the touchline was enjoyable and educational. The friendly served its purpose and we wish Nantyglo more success in the coming season. Carmarthen ‘Quins travelled far on Friday which we appreciated and as a Premier Club that finished in the top six last season were expected to present a formidable challenge. After 35 minutes of the second half what no one expected was a ‘Quins win because Ebbw had dominated the game up to then. Pre-season “friendlies” are useful to coaches and players especially newcomers to the squad and while the result was disappointing the aim of the game was achieved. The officials officiated seriously and for them too it was a warm up for the season to come but the spirit of both teams was correct which made the brandishing of a yellow card rather surprising.
