LLANDRINDOD Wells maintained their 100 per cent start to the season with a bonus point 26-7 victory over Forgeside.

The torrential rain which swept the country failed to prevent the Budgies enjoying a dream start with a quick tap penalty from scrum-half Dale Wilson releasing fly-half Aled Price to cross for the opening try.

Ashley Hammond converted the extras as Llandrindod established an early lead.

Despite the visitors gaining territory and possession the hosts increased their advantage when prop Sam Davies peeled off a rolling maul to cross.

It was a similar story after the break with both sides toiling on a heavy pitch.

The Budgies extended their lead when centre Jake Hammond made a big tackle with Gaz Oakley releasing wing Ben Williams to add a third try which Hammond converted.

Oakley completed the try scoring and bonus point with a storming 40 metre run to touch down under the posts.

Forgeside never gave up and reduced the arrears with a late consolation try.
