Worthing then moved 26-25 ahead with 10 minutes to play and held on to take four points.

Raiders touched down three tries through Kacper Lawski, Kyle Coulter, with his first for the club, and Micky Pointing, while Coulson kicked one conversion and three penalties.

Worthing team manager David Hinchcliffe said: "We were one try short of a bonus point, but we'd have bitten someone's hand off before the game for a win here.

"It's a massive result, especially with Bridgwater losing and other results going our way."
