Westran double has the Phoenix flying

Yorkshire Three

Promoted Rotherham Phoenix collected their second five-point win, 29-12 at home to Bramley Phoenix to go top.

Bramley went ahead with an early converted try, and Rotherham turned round 7-5 down after No 8 Richard Westran had scored their opening try.

But a second try by Westran after the turnound and others by flanker Sam Pitcher and centre Owen Jenkinson ensured the bonus point.

Wath also had an early seven-point deficit before taking control to score an 18-7 home win over York RI. Scrum-half Joe Bartlett scored both Wath's tries in the second half.

Goole, after gaining a bonus point the previous week, are level with Wath in second place following an 11-8 win at Old Modernians.

Baildon, after conceding two first-half penalties, clinched a 7-6 win at Thornensians through a try ten minutes into the second half by stand-off Alistair Beaumont, converted by Marcus Dracup.
