| Saturday 27 February 2010 |
 WEST Wales duo Carmarthen and Haverfordwest both lost ground in the race for Super 12 after falling to late goals. The Old Gold went down 1-0 at home to Airbus UK Broughton, for whom former Wrexham wingman Josh Johnson got the winner in the 89th-minute, shortly after coming off the bench.
