History of Newport RFC | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Glamorgan (Cardiff 10th) Rifles,   13 October 1877
Newport scored 1 Goal and 1 Rogue (touching down the ball behind your own goal line)
* 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.
