It isn’t clear if Aberavon RFC youngster Rhodri Lewis has ever tried to negotiate the zigs and the zags of an Alpine skiing course, but the teenager certainly knows how to slalom.
The young scrum-half has won the Indigo Group Premiership try of the season award after his blood-twisting effort for the Wizards against Swansea before Christmas. Lewis’ score attracted 60 percent of the votes in a poll of viewers organised by S4C. Llandovery’s Rhodri Jones took second spot after a flowing coast-to-coast move ended in a stylish touchdown against Merthyr.
But it was always hard to imagine anything topping Lewis’ effort. The score came in Aberavon’s 28-13 victory over the Whites in December.
