Stourbridge are on the up in the league

Stourbridge director of rugby Neil Mitchell insists his side are 'starting to gel' after another victory in National League Two North.

They beat Huddersfield 29-20, with Josh Trinham, Connor Nicholls, and veteran Nathan Bressington all getting tries.

Mitchell said: "We had a few injury problems after a good pre-season but it's starting to come together now. I've got high hopes for these boys, they are starting to gel.

"The defining matches are the next two, against South Leicester and Sedgley Park, and will play a huge part in deciding where we finish this season."

In National League Three Midlands, Old Halesonians scored an emphatic 41-0 victory over Sutton Coldfield.

Having been handed their first defeat of the season the week prior, Hales needed to respond well and Chris Hooper eased the nerves with an early penalty.

Full-back Hooper had a fine game, with a number of coversions and a try to his name, while Owen Jones and Luke Smith also contributed with tries.

Hales are now second in the table, three points behind Hinckley, who are yet to lose.

Following three defeats in succession, Lichfield got back on the winning trail against Syston. Their 27-18 victory moved them up to fifth.

Wednesbury remain win-less in Midlands Three West. Man of the Match Marcus Taylor got two penalties and a try for them, but they were beaten in the final minutes by a converted try.
