Ravens hit form on the road
Market Drayton produced an impressive away-day display to claim the Midlands Four West (North) spoils at Rugeley.
It was the hosts who made the brighter start and two unconverted tries earned them 10-0 lead. But the Ravens then started to come into the game and their pressure was rewarded when hooker Stu Williams drove over to halve the deficit before half-time.
The Ravens then took charge in the second half. Replacement prop Pete Sewell levelled the scores and then the visitors nosed in front courtesy of a try from Dewi Griffiths, which was converted by Alex Gammon.
Gammon then added the final points of the day with a penalty to secure thw win.
Clee Hill also tasted success, winning 39-19 at Warley.
Shrewsbury’s Midlands Two West (North) struggles continued as they crashed 92-5 to promotion-chasing Stafford.
There was no joy for Telford Hornets, either, in Midlands Three West (North).
They went down 45-15 at Uttoxeter. Cameron Mitchell (two) and Steve Monk, scored tries for the Hornets.
In Midlands Five West (South), Bishops Castle lost 23-10 to Chaddesley Corbett.
