History of Newport RFC | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Kidderminster Harriers,   01 October 1881
A high scoring game with Newport winning by 4 goals and 11 tries to nil.
* There was no points system in place prior to 1890-91. Instead, a game was determined by the number of goals scored (conversions, dropped goals, and later, penalties). If a try was scored, an opportunity to convert the try into a goal was given. If the goal was kicked successfully, the try no longer counted.
