OXFORD Saints edged closer to a perfect season as they hammered Jurassic Coast Raptors 62-0 at Tilsley Park.

The hosts scored nine unanswered touchdowns for their biggest win of the Southern Conference West Division 2 campaign.

They had already wrapped up the league title, but one further victory at home to Swindon Storm on August 14 would seal a flawless regular season.

Saints were virtually assured of the result by the end of the first quarter against the Raptors, leading 20-0.

James Walter, Michael Bearman and Luke Fry all scored, while Sam Fielden was successful with two of the three kicks for extra points.

The one-way traffic continued in the second quarter.

Walter crossed for his second, while Connor Day and Ryan Kingshott also got on the board.

Walter added to his haul with a successful conversion on Kingshott’s touchdown, taking the lead to 40 points by half-time.

Tony Glover added the first score of the third quarter and Richard Bloomer kicked the extra two points, before scoring a touchdown himself.

Nicholas Clark-Bryan rounded off the thrashing with the final touchdown in the fourth quarter.

Saints’ play-off details, where a home tie is expected, are due to be confirmed shortly.
