Weekend Rugby Review
Hertford returned from their National League Three South match at Havant with nothing to show after narrowly failing to secure a bonus point
Beset by injuries and facing an imposing scrum Superblues had the early advantage through two converted Neil Barella tries. Havant responded to lead by just one point at the interval and with neither side troubling the scorers again until the final minute it was the hosts Graham Butterworth who went over to break Hertford hearts and secure a 22-14 win for the Hampshire side
Old Albanians remain in trouble in League One as their poor away form continued at leaders Canterbury
Welwyn´s hopes of gaining promotion from League Three North West took a knock with defeat at Ruislip but Stevenage won against Enfield
In London Four North West´s top of the table clash London New Zealand maintained their 100% record beating a battling Datchworth side by just 5 points
