The experienced Hywel Jenkins, Brett Sinkinson, Paul Jones and Mark Jones were prominent as the plucky Ravens were denied the platform to compete.

Bridgend kept trying and were rewarded with a late try for Nathan Strong to add to Austin Powell's three kicks.

Neath will meet Caerphilly in the final at the Millennium Stadium on 8 May.
