And a Meehal Grint penalty and Pete Southwell try gave them an 8-3 lead in the first half against Wellingborough.

The visitors fought back to lead 10-8 at half-time and despite Ben Chamberlin’s second-half try, the Northamptonshire side ran out 27-13 winners.

On Saturday, Rasen and Louth head south to play newly-promoted Melton Mowbray (3pm kick-off).
