JUNIOR Fatialofa ran in a brilliant solo try as Chinnor earned their first win of the season with a 15-11 victory over Canterbury.

After collecting just six bonus points from their opening seven National League 2 South games, Chinnor were in desperate need of a victory ahead of their trip to Kent.

Will Millett got them off to a good start with a penalty.

Canterbury’s Ryan Ward was then yellow carded and the visitors capitalised on 15 minutes with Darren Oliver driving over.

Millett added the extras to make it 10-0.

A Charles Kingsman penalty helped the hosts reduce the deficit and the score remained 10-3 at half-time.

Four minutes after the break, Kingsman slotted another three-pointer, but illdiscipline was to prove their downfall again.

Royce Cadman and Martin Beaumont were sin-binned and Chinnor took full advantage once more.

Fatialofa weaved his way through the defence to score an unconverted try on 55 minutes to make it 15-6.

Canterbury pushed the visitors back, but could only breach Chinnor’s defence on one occasion with James Green going over for an unconverted score.

Henley Hawks suffered a heavy 54-5 defeat at fourthplaced Richmond in National League 1.

An Andy Hall penalty and unconverted tries from Charlie Broughton and Jack Alcock gave the hosts a 13-0 lead.

Will Robinson went over for Henley, but Richmond ended the half 25-5 ahead after Chris Davies and Seb Adreniran-Olule crossed for unconverted scores.

After the break, Adam Gadsby touched down to make it 30-5, before Cameron Mitchell crossed and Hall added the extras.

Tom Sergeant, Chris Davies and Rob Kirby were then all driven over in the last quarter to further punish Hawks.
