Blackheath 32 Taunton 47

The immaculate goal-kicking of Louie Sinclair paved the way for this deserved victory for Taunton, despite being outscored six tries to five though, alas for the visitors, with results elsewhere going against them, not quite enough to retain their position in National League One next term.

Rosslyn Park 29 Blackheath 29

Photos courtesy of Deborah Lloyd A typical local derby between two clubs who have shared a rivalry since the 1880s, scrappy, and a little fractious at times (though never boiling over) but full of drama with honours even at the close. Undoubtedly, it will be Blackheath who walked away the happier. The last-ditch converted try claimed three league points for …
