Penarth remain top of the Admiral League despite being held to a 29-29 draw at home to Llanharan.

The visitors had raced into a 19-point lead, despite first half tries for the Bears from Ben Jones and George Roberts.

Tom Griffiths went over for the hosts in the second half, but a last kick conversion from Rhys Dauncey saw Llanharan take three points from the Athletic Ground.

Elsewhere, Barry slipped into the bottom two following a 57-28 defeat at St Albans, who remain just two points off the top of the table going into the November break.

Cowbridge's home game with Porth Harlequins in Division Two was postponed and will be rearranged for a later date.

In Division Three, a strong second half performance guided Llantwit Major to a 41-26 home win over Fairwater, while Dinas Powys crashed to a 77-5 defeat at Llantrisant.

Old Penarthians were narrowly edged out 31-28 at home to Caerau Ely in Division Five, while Sully Sports were beaten 41-21 at St Peters Athletic in Division Six.

John Dimond's side claimed three tries from Ellis O'Grady, Josef Jenkins and Caelan Hurley, but a slow start and some dubious refereeing denied the visitors a losing bonus point.

And in the WRU Women's Championship on Sunday, Old Penarthians won 50-14 at home to Ynysybwl.

The domestic season resumes on Saturday 6th December with cup action for Penarth and Cowbridge while the lower leagues return to action on the same day.

Barry, who have already been knocked out of the Division One Cup, return on 13th December with a trip to Abercynon.
