DON Jenkins scored four tries as Wallingford made home advantage tell by romping to a 58-0 success over derby rivals Abingdon in the BB&O Premier Division.

With Abingdon's pitch being waterlogged, the match was switched at the last minute to the Hithercroft, and the near-perfect conditions were very much to Wallingford's liking, particularly in the second half.

The hosts led only 16-0 at half-time, with unconverted tries from centre Jenkins, skipper Olli Henderson and scrum half Derek Viljoen.

Abingdon, who battled hard, twice got within ten metres of Wallingford's line, but never looked like crossing it.

The hosts killed off the game early in the second half, when slick passing set up winger Elliott Simons for their fourth unconverted try.

From the restart, Henderson and Jenkins set up a try in the corner for winger Tom Williams to score in the corner to make it 25-0.

The floodgates were now well and truly open.

Jenkins raced over for three more tries, with others coming from hooker Tom Hill and Williams.

Henderson, who set up a number of scores, added two conversions before leaving the field with a knee injury.

Jenkins, taking over the place-kicking duties, added two conversions to take his tally to 24 points.

Bicester earned a comfortable 34-17 victory over a determined Swindon side.

Bicester's cause was assisted by the inclusion of newcomers Toby Clyde-Smith and Jonathan Howe and by the return to scrum half of Dickie Walsh.

Clyde-Smith and fellow lock Mark Malins enabled Bicester to dominate the line-out exchanges, while Howe tackled well and scored a first-half try.

Centre Chad Ward, too, had an excellent afternoon with the boot, converting all four Bicester tries and adding three penalties.

Flanker Tony Nightingale scored a try in each half for Bicester, who led 20-10 at half-time, while their other try came from flanker Dan Spencer following a seven-man move.

For Swindon, both centres Kevin Wills and James Harman scored tries.

Gosford All Blacks, despite arriving with little time to spare following a traffic delay on the M40, competed well for 40 minutes with opponents Phoenix from Slough.

But the visitors, who conceded numerous penalties through indiscipline, fell away in the second half and were comfortably beaten 40-12.

After going 10-0 behind, Gosford rallied with a try from full back James Holborn, following good work by Tim Sutton, who added a superb conversion from wide out.

Gosford's indiscipline led to the concession of two more penalty goals before the visitors responded as Tom Brooke-Hollidge was sent in the far right corner for an unconverted try.

With Alex Webb sent to the sinbin for the first time, Gosford's 14 men could not stop Phoenix adding another try to make it 21-12 at half-time.

Phoenix dominated the second half, adding 19 points, despite some great defensive work from Dan Hughes and Eugene Griffin, and some huge tackles from Marc Grant.
