Wootton Bassett kept up the pressure on Southern Counties

South leaders Frome with a 33-12 victory over Trowbridge.

They were ahead when winger Nick Warren kicked the ball through and French second row Flo Vialan bulldozed over from the resulting maul.

Tim Gallimore added the conversion and kicked two more penalties soon after.

Hooker Matt Hutchings then emerged from the bottom of a pile-up to put the home side 18-0 up and Gallimore slotted yet another penalty before half time.

Centre John Clarke was next to score four minutes into the second half, Gallimore converting before Trowbridge hit back with an unconverted try.

But neat work between fly-half Nick Parker, centre Mike Dixon and openside Jon Saunders sent in Hutchings for his second and Trowbridge's second, which was converted, was mere consolation.

ANDY Webb's last-gasp penalty handed Devizes a dramatic come-from-behind 20-17 victory over Sherborne.

The Saddlebacks were 14-0 down at half-time, but their superb fightback drew them level on points with their fourth-placed Dorset opponents in Southern Counties South.

Converted tries from Richard Nias and John Bolwell put Sherborne in command, but it was a different story in the second half.

Charlie Rudler, Mark Stowell and Andy Bolan crossed for the home side, Webb adding one conversion before landing the late, winning three-pointer.

MINETY were forced to field their second team for a first team Southern Counties South home clash with Bournemouth and paid the price with a 106-5 defeat.

The regular side were all absent at a teammate's wedding.

And as the league rules do not allow a club to cancel a first team fixture and still play a second team game, Minety had no option but to cancel the seconds game against Aldbourne in Dorset & Wilts Two North and face Bournemouth.

Ryan Dowling crossed for their solitary try.
