The Pool Two match was switched to Dunbar in East Lothian due to the pitch being unplayable at Bridgehaugh.
In the first half the Scottish side built up a 10-8 lead thanks to tries from centre Byron McGuigan and prop Mike McDonald. Bedwas' points in that first 40 minutes came through a try from winger Rory Budina and then a penalty by scrum-half Ethan Davies. After the interval, six more tries were scored by the two sides as things opened up. County grabbed two through winger Ross Aitken and second-row Craig Deacons, with stand-off Stuart Edwards kicking one conversion.
