Three more Daly seven-pointers either side of the break made it 35-0, Harry Legg next to dot down for Albion as Dart continued his perfect run from the tee.

A Barney Goatley score got Sheffield off the mark, but Cameron Doak made sure Plymouth had the final word.

Sale FC made it three bonus-point wins from three with a 45-15 triumph at Bury St Edmunds.

James Mitchell converted Osian Roberts’ opener for The Dogs before Matt Hema cut the gap.

Sale struck next with an Owain Williams seven-pointer, but a Euan Rees try made it 14-10 at the interval.

Sale, though, put their foot down as Mitchell added to a Dom Hanson effort before a penalty try gave them breathing space.

Ollie Longmore went over before Roberts and Williams doubled up, a James Robins kick making it 45-10.

BSE grabbed a late consolation through George Grigg-Pettitt.

Third-placed Tonbridge Juddians continued their perfect start with an astonishing 53-52 home win against Cambridge.

But Luke Bouchier was on target after Ruaridh Dawson and Tom Petty dotted down to have Cambridge 19-7 in front.

Matt Engelbrecht and Lloyd reduced the deficit for the hosts, only for Ethan Thorne, Eli Caven and Dawson to cross for the Blood & Sand, two more Bouchier kicks making it 38-14 to the away team inside half-an-hour.

TJs secured their try bonus-point before the break as Alfie Scopes and Will Holling went over, Lloyd with another conversion.

The scores were level at 38-38 after Tom Mannix and Engelbrecht scored, Lloyd with his fourth successful conversion.

Lloyd added to his own score before Caven and Bouchier levelled things again.

Walsh took TJs to 50 before Lloyd slotted what proved a match-winning penalty, Thorne’s try and Bouchier’s injury-time boot not enough for the visitors.

Moseley down Dings, Camborne stun Park

Birmingham Moseley made it two home wins on the spin with a 35-31 victory versus Dings Crusaders.

Bristol Bears loanees Sam Scott and Matt Bowler reduced the arrears with another, Louie Sinclair, converting the first.

Read was on target after crossing but Will Thompson and Sinclair replied to make it 28-24.

Cowan and Read pushed Moseley clear, however, and despite Tom Knight getting over and Sinclair adding another conversion, Dings fell just short.

Camborne produced a second sensational away triumph as they toppled Rosslyn Park 40-26 at The Rock.

And it took a phenomenal comeback from the Cornishmen who trailed 21-0 after Luke Mehson bagged a brace and Ewan Fenley went over, Max Winter with three conversions.

Former Ram Fraser Honey landed after Ben Priddey and Alex Ducker replied for Town before the break.

He did the same following Herbie Stupple’s score to level matters, only for Fred Davies to nudge Rosslyn back in front at 26-21.

But Priddey completed a hat-trick and Frankie Nowell added gloss to the scoreline as two more Honey kicks secured a superb away win.
