The try feast started when Andy Hitch and Steve McManus went over the line and captain Neil Redman kicked both conversions.

David Milham and substitute Seb Halligan continued the scoring before the visitors got a consolation try. But normal service was resumed soon after when Dave Sprinks ran clear, and Sandeman converted.

Roger Roberts and Campbell added to the total before Redman and Halligan sealed the win.

H&B are back at William Parker on Saturday September 21 for their Power Gen Cup match against Seaford, kick-off 3pm.
